Man, give the kid some credit. The coaches obviously thought he was deserving. Saying a win isn't as good because the winning wrestler used a move in his arsenal that works for him is unfair. If that is his go to move, then it is no different than a great double leg.
If he couldn't hang with a tough wrestler like Pursel without it, then kudos to him for realizing he should try it. Better to go for it rather than waiting to see if you lose.
Let's not soil a solid win and diminish an outstanding wrestler honor earned by a high school athlete. Pursel is a really good wrestler and he will certainly bounce back.
