Braxton's loss in 2nd round may go down as one of the most horrible and confusing officiated matches in National competition. 1 judge from the table changed the score numerous times. The referee would just agree with a complete blank stare. If you have a Flo account, and can make sense of this match, let me know.

International wrestling is an entire different way of scoring in both Greco and Free.

The Table judge is the head judge and has the last say.

Glad to see some of WV wrestlers wrestling in Greco!

Fully aware of differences, watched a lot of both in my life, just very odd match from scoring, calls, long breaks, conversations at the table.

What a great event. My hat's off to all the wrestlers that competed in this event. It was a meat grinder for sure. Brackets were full of the best in the country.

It was a great event!
Wait until you get to the junior division ..
This is an whole entire division with even more wrestlers coming out!
What I mean is that most clubs don’t have wrestlers in the cadet age group but more in the junior div.

Great job placing in the cadet div.
