One point is sure: whatever the justification involved for the judgement or lack thereof that resulted in a very controversial call being made in an overtime that decided what was one of the best-wrestled finals match in 4a, The result has been that nearly everyone that witnessed the event will readily asses tons more character to the two young wrestlers than to the official. The way that those two men conducted themselves after the match showed what they were made of, even though it was decided by one man's interpretation of the rule book, and not on the mat as it should have been. Congratulations to Strawn and Sutton-Kern. They were the class involved here. Marginal calls have no place in a state final match. The official involved may have had a lot of confidence in his call , but it was a really poor place to make it. I have seen officials become the central part of matches, and in spite of what some of their egos seem to dictate, that is not their role. Situations like this one seem to happen every year. Mr Hilton may not have been favoring either wrestler, but to call backing up in an overtime when scoring position is so incredibly critical, showed really poor judgement on his part. Too bad that it ended that way. Congratulations to the competitors in showing so much composure that they are still the center of attention, and not the official.
