And this right here is why Washington state wrestling will never compete on the level of serious wrestling states like the Midwest and back East. In those areas that would be considered neither unnecessary roughness or flagrant misconduct. Cormier-Higgins was handling the Kettle Falls kid who was sniveling and crying most of the match. Watching the film it looks like he was working for the pin as he should have been. The refs need to let the kids wrestles and stop injecting themselves into the match. We may need refs in WA state but we don't need Ref #25 if he is going to be costing kids a shot at state placing like he cost this kid.
