I agree with 2 2 2 on the consolation side. If the reason for 1 2 2 is to speed the tournament up, I believe that is backwards. Plenty of times, towards the end of the first 1 minute period, one wrestler needs about 5 more seconds for a fall. I actually think it would speed things up going 2 2 2. It's not very hard to play defense for one minute, but if that's all you have, gets tough for two minutes. I'm not advocating for trying to hurry the tournament along, just feel if that's the reason for 1 min, it really doesn't work. All coaches look for mat time for their wrestlers, and minutes can add up during a season.
Also, is this an actual state rule? As stated, rr tournaments are all 222.
