•Prior to change:
|
|
•Only one 30-second tiebreaker was conducted after the one-minute
sudden victory period.
|
|
•Reason for change:
|
|
•Previous overtime procedure was perceived to be unfair.
|
|
•During the 2005-06 season, several states experimented with the rule
and the results were positive.
|
|
•The new rule provides for one additional 30-second tiebreaker and
another 30-second ultimate tiebreaker period if the score remains tied after
the tiebreakers.
|
|
•Beginning with the 2006-07 season, if no score occurs in the
one-minute sudden victory period, two 30-second tiebreakers will take place.
Scoring in these two tiebreakers will be conducted as in a regular match.
|
|
•If the score remains tied at the conclusion of the two tiebreakers,
one additional 30-second ultimate tiebreaker period will be conducted with
the first wrestler scoring declared the winner. If no points are scored, the
offensive wrestler wins the match.
