She could learn to spralw and stuff those takedown attemps more, and shoot for some takedowns of her own, to force her opponent to consider the risk themselves. Her coach was trying to help her get out of it, but It's hard to react to coaching in time.... but she caught on that she kept ending up in the same positions so all she has to do is remember the instructions for next time. It all just takes practice. She did good... "you win or you learn."

Y'all may want me to post losses but damn if I'm gonna keep filming and show that ref raise the elite kid's arm.

Nice job young lady!!! You gave him a run!! Your “Sit Out” was quite good and got you out of some trouble!!! Your Sprawl needs a lot of work/practice!! I REALLY like your grit and not just acquiescing to his skill and strength!!!

She’s a tough girl.

Scarlett is obviously stronger in the legs, and hips than this boy!! Girls are stronger than boys at this age, and have a lower center of gravity!! Next time use all of this to your advantage with body triangles, grapevine pins, and the full mount (harder to achieve in wrestling than BJJ). You will get him next time, Scarlett!! Great job!!❤❤❤❤

OMG what a match 🫣 even if you lose you have done a great match and the guy was also more tired then you. He won only for a matter of points. For what I can see here I can say that you have both strenght and agility and I'm sure you'll become a great wrestler 😁 P.S. I'm a wrestler too in my school and If I had been in your situation to win I would have played dirty by tapping the kid in his balls and making it look like an accident 😂 then I would have made an easy pin while he was in pain so I could win. I know I’m bad 😂 but sometimes you have to do it to win 😌 and btw it’s easier to win with guys (at least for me lol). Feel free to use this technic in matches too 😌😂 I wish you the best Scar ❤️ byeeee

Scarlett, who won?

Maybe she will get better !!

Yeah, the girl needs to go on the offensive, there were times where the boy was vulnerable, but she didnt take advantage of it and attack, always going for a defensive posture instead. Girls' power advantage over boys at that weight and age, are hips and legs..have to use those legs to overpower boys. The boy is a good match for this girl to practice and learn with until she can start to pin him using her lower center of gravity power advantage. As for the boy, poor guy, he was preoccupied, struggling with typical physiological boy issues. Oh, boy.

Scarlet, I loved the way at the beginning of the match, you attempted to control your opponent’s wrists. Forget tying up. It’s a waste of time, energy and will sap your strength. Control the wrists and you’d be surprised by the opportunity it presents to shoot. Use psychology as one of your tools… fake a tie-up and as your opponent reaches, tap-and-go for a takedown. (Meaning rapidly tap up the reaching arms of your opponent and shoot for a leg-as you circle around.) It’s not always about securing a leg and trying to pull it in, it’s about using an ankle, or a leg to pull into a spin to the back. Think about it; it’s one thing to try and shoot for a leg takedown, it’s another thing to control a wrist and immediately PULL yourself into a takedown. There is little time for the opponent to react. Leg takedowns mean keeping your head out from your opponent’s crotch and immediately drop your head and raise it to either side… clasp hands behind your opponent and suck (pull) in to your waist to complete the takedown. If the opponent is stronger, then spin to the back for points. Way too much to say here, but this technique got me to place second in the country in my weight class. (In my country) It will create opportunities on the mat for you. It’s about hand (wrist) control.

There should be a law against LOUD MOUD coaches like this one. It is very annoiing, not only for the opponent, but for the public as well. So SHUT-UP around the mat.
