SCORING IN WRESTLING

 

(1) Takedowns are scored when one wrestler brings the opponent down to the mat from a standing position. Additional points are awarded when a wrestler takes the opponent directly to his or her back. Common takedowns include single legs, double legs, high crotches, headlocks, bodylocks, shrugs, and fireman's carries.

(2) Reversals are scored when a wrestler, controlled by the opponent on the mat, executes a move that allows the wrestler to assume a controlling position on top of the opponent, thus reversing the situation. Common reversals include switches, rolls, and hip heists.

(3) Exposing an opponent's back to the mat is a scoring technique in all styles of wrestling. In collegiate and secondary school wrestling, a wrestler must not only tilt the rival's back toward the mat, breaking a 45° angle, but also hold the back in this position to score points. Common "pinning combinations" include the half-nelson, bar arm, cradle, and tilt leg ride.

(4) Escapes are scored when a wrestler, controlled by the opponent on the mat, frees himself or herself and moves to a standing position, facing the opponent. Common escapes include the standup and the sitout.

(5) To Pin your opponent, a wrestler must hold any part of both shoulders in contact with the mat for at least two seconds.  This is declared by the discression of the referee.
