I would not have called the stall


but I am extremely biased for my Hokies.

I would have warned (verbally) Sleigh one more time on the way back to the center and if he stepped backwards again, I would have hit him there.

I saw this week two instances of guys getting hit with two stall warnings in 10 seconds (resulting in a point) with one in SV (which caused the match to be over). In both cases, we watched the video the next morning at the officials meeting and there was overwhelmingly support in those calls. I heard about it that night on another mat and said "WTF" but when I saw it, it was the right call because you have to wrestle to the center of the mat and after you are warned, if you continue to step back and wrestling to the edge, you are going to get hit.
