Same situation - my solution was to offer all three wrestlers the opportunity of re-wrestling the bracket or provide all three with a gold medal. The wrestlers decision was unanimous, all three received a gold medal, and went home happy.

we tried that too! the problem was 2 of the kids (dads) didn't want to share first place, they thought it was theirs, and theirs only. we ended up losing a wrestler from our club, because he nor his parents could understand how criteria worked. the tournament director offered to flip a coin, jokingly. the parents LOVED that one.
