The ref at 4A state missed a call that should have been a pin, our boy still won the match but the refs need to start looking at defence pins, Hiawatha has a wrestler that has four defence pins this year and should have had one at state but the ref has never seen it and said so after the match and our coach was told that. Its just a ref did not see it or had never seen one. But I am not here to run any ref down they have a very hard job and over all do a great job, the only thing was the boy with that pin would have set the school pin record for a single year. Thanks to all the refs that were at state and keep up the good work.
It's nice to have school records, but if the ref didn't see it (and I'm sure they have all seen defensive pins) then there is nothing you can do about it. I doubt if he would have went up before hand and told the ref that he was one away that the ref would have slapped the mat and said congrats, you are in the record books.
