Hello! So I am actually a ref in Maine, but this is one of the only active message boards I can find that aren't basically just kids and parents trash talking! I am curious as to how states are interpreting the NF/pin rule, specifically with the toes in. We told coaches and officials that we would go with the NFHS ruling and call it out. Of course they lost it, saying it goes against everything they tell their wrestlers to do. We were asked to hear how the surrounding states do it (we actually have a New England Championships tournament), and we found out that they will all call it in bounds as long as the knees are inside the line, kind of like the cylinder rule. They said that was how it was called at the Super 32 tournament.

Thoughts?
