I agree hopefully this is enough to open eyes and possibly make a rule change. If not at least make there be an appeal process cause we are all human and mistakes are made on all parts. Be it the wrestlers, coaches or the refs, and at this point there is no appeal process for what was called a flagrant. My son was naive to what had just happened and nothing was explained to him. After the blood time he went back and got into referees position only to be stood up and see the other guys hand raised. Then when it came to podium time he started up there thinking he had defaulted to second place. Thank God our coach caught him before he did get up there because his name was never called and the embarrassment would have been unbearable.
My son will bounce back from this and he will have learned a valuable lesson! Life can be unfair but we cannot let that keep us down.
