Big rule changes in NCAA wrestling.
Three points awarded for a takedown to encourage more offense and create a larger differential from escapes.
A three point near fall was added, although I don't know any more details. Maybe that means a three second count is worth three points, but I'm just guessing.
One change I would like to see is a better way to deal with stalling. The calls are so inconsistent. It is frustrating to see a weaker wrestler up against a superior opponent and do just enough to avoid stalling, but never initiating any real action. A stall call late in a match does nothing, but one early in a match can be huge.
