The wrestler who was ejected was coached by the official who ejected him several years ago, and I also coached him 5 years ago. You can bet there isn't any other officials in that state who watch him more closly than the two of us do. I don't wish to speak badly of said wrestler, but when you are known to officials as a consistant bad sportsman and have to be watched extra carefully, its not a good thing.

As far as illegal moves are concern. Given the situations that occured, there probably wasn't anything that could have been done to stop them from occuring. Based on what he told me they happened very quickly. I have full confidence in Dave, and he is a state level official, so I would imagine plenty of other people do as well.

deojsds I say this because it almost sounds like you are accusing that official of allowing a wrestler to throw illegal moves. Perhaps I just misinterpreted your post.
