Here is another one that I might not deserve any credit for it. I got a hold on my opponent's arm and started to run in circle (I triedy to run behind toward his back). My opponent got nevous, rotated his body with me, and resisted very hard by leaning his body back to fight against my pulling. I no longer be able to hold on his entire body weight, and I had to release my grip. When I did that, his body flew almost 12 feet away and ended on the floor. I won that round in SC without using any of my throwing skill.
My first year of wrestling..I'm wrestling a kid one year older. He kept shooting for doubles, I flattened him out most of the time, he scored on me once or twice. It went down to the final seconds..I'm winning 7-5. He fell into a headlock of mine [I wrestle in middle school] and time ran out right when the ref was going to slam the mat. A win is a win though and we crushed the other team. I hope I see him next year..
mine was this year at a tournament. the match was for 3rd place (consolation finals). The man i was wrestling had took the soon-to-be-winner of the whole tournament into overtime the day before. He was up 3-1 in the second period, but i was on top keeping him down and breaking him mentally. In the 3rd period he gets a stand up. We tied up and and I hipthrew (over-under) him to his back and stuck him.
My most glorious moment in sport wrestling is getting a ball-and-chain (arm between the legs) on one of my opponent's at the end of the season. I let go of the ball-and-chain since it looked particularly painful and then I did a takedown from behind. I didn't get a pin since I was a pretty skinny kid back then (still am, just not so much) but I won the match
Coolest non-sport wrestling moment was when a bigger kid walked (or rather lumbered, he wuz kinda big) up to me and shoved me. I tried a judo-style shoulder throw but since he was big (about 60 lbs heavier than me) and since I was throwing him in a downhill fashion, the throw failed miserably and I got caught in a headlock. Luckily, I lifted one of his legs up and executed a single-leg takedown with my head still caught in his headlock. Both of us went down, but since I was doing the takedown, he ended up on the bottom and I ended up falling on his groin. Then we decided to stop there
My perfect moment was at team districts back in HS, When I got a rematch against a kid who beat me my freshman year pretty badly.
The first period we toyed around with each other and the score was 6-4 in his favor. But as soon as the second period hit, he deferred choice to me and I took bottom. As soon as the whistle blew I reversed him to even us out and managed to get a leg in. I was working for a spladle, and I could hear my coach yelling at me to pull at the knee. Next thing I knew the kid was on his back completely crumpled into this little ball with his legs pretty much doing the splits. My school wasn't very good so no one had actually seen that move really pulled off in a match. What little crowd there was went nuts and I felt like a king haha.
Ankle pick with my foot to get his left leg, scoop it up to hold high under the knee, then head outside low on his torso and drove him up and to my left to takedown, quickly to avoid getting guillotined. I'm still a little shaky on where my head placement needs to be on single and double legs, especially when getting guillotined is a possibility.
I had another pretty satisfying one last night against a student during takedown randori, caught his left arm in a whizzer and took him down with a right leg like an Uchi Mata. I've had success with it before, but this was my best execution yet.
