On this rare occasion, I disagree with you ricky bobby. I think that maple did a great job of riding out napier, and although he didn't ever really come close to back points he was doing a great job of riding. What I mean by this is that napier was bustin his butt to get out from bottom and maple spent most of the period returning him to the mat.
I do agree with you though on the out of bounds rule. The only problem though is that the kids will only have a couple of short weeks to adapt an entirely new strategy. I don't think its anything our elite kids can't handle. I wouldn't mind them throwing riding time in either as it would have changed the entire 3rd period of the maple/napier match.
