Biddle pretty much dominated the match until the very end when he was tossed to his back by McCray for a 4 point move. The final score was 7-6 McCray. After the match McCray's hand was raised and the Winfield coaches talked with the referee. I left at that point thinking it would be McCray in finals. The only thing I can think of is there might have been a scoring error at the table or maybe the call was reversed on the headlock. Either way this was a very poorly run tournament with too little space for the hundreds of people in attendance.


I have no doubt that things could have been improved upon but to say that it was a "very poorly run tournament" wouldn't be accurate. Things will be looked at from every angle and changed so these things dont happen again. When changes happen within the last week and a half, sometimes you have to adapt and overcome. The bottom line is that we will improve in all areas to make this tournament even better. Thanks to all for attending and being patient!!!
