Stalling is one of those things that can drive a coach crazy.

I am all for getting the action moving and keeping the wrestlers moving for better position. I do have problem with how and why it is called sometimes. I noticed more then once this past weekend that the wrong wrestler was called for stalling. In one case their was a wrestler that was sitting on an ankle and had a tight waist and ankle ride- both ankles were tied up and the bottom man was dinged for stalling. Another case was in the Heavyweight bracket were a kid was sitting on the hips of his opponent and waiting for him to move- Honestly I felt the kid on bottom couldn't move because of the weight- of course I was not seeing what the official was seeing because the kid on bottom got called. There were plenty move but no reason to go on. I tihnk Stalling needs to be called and needs to be called on the wrestlers not trying to better his position. Everyone calls it differently- and that is the problem I see.

I think I know what stalling is and I think the other person feels they know what stalling is but when we see the outcome one of us is going to be surprised. If you question the official then all heck break loose and you are a bad person. I find it best to never question calls just realize you are never right - they are or they hold it against you and the kids forever. I wish they was a way to come together after the season and have coaches and officials get on the same page- better the sport for the kids
