Phonetroll,
You are incorrect. Dustin not only dominates his opponent, but he pins him at minute 3:59. w w w. youtube. com/watch?v=zvxc8S5ybS4 You obviously didn't take the time to watch the entire video. On top of that Dustin had to go through a District Tournament to beat other wrestlers to earn the rig
ht to go to the State Tournament? Anyone would be angry to be born with no arms and no legs, but Dustin found wrestling, and it provided him a direction in his life.

Again...I am not ... ( 3 months ago by Phonetroll)
Again...I am not attacking Dustin, the man, who is an inspiration by becoming an athlete with what he has rather than he has not.
I only address that it is he who has the advantage in this sport. If he were wrestling exhibition matches then there would be no disagreement. Why should one of his opponents lose an athletic scholarship? I watched the whole video...the referee did not tap the mat. At the end they simply reset bec
ause they left the circle. If you don't pin then its points.
The ref tapped the ... ( 3 months ago by angryamerican)
The ref tapped the mat. Dustin got the pin and the match ended.
Are you watching this video? w w w. youtube. com/watch?v=zvxc8S5ybS4 As a freshman Dustin only won 5 matches out of 20 matches. He wasn't very good, but he didn't give up. Dustin worked harder and finally qualified for State as a Senior. How does losing 1 match to Dustin Carter cause his
"opponents to lose an athletic scholarship"?? It does not!
Here is an example ... ( 3 months ago by angryamerican)
Here is an example of how hard Dustin Carter has worked to go from 5-15 as a Freshman to 41-4 as a Senior!
w w w. youtube. com/watch?v=ooQKUYQ_WgQ This kid could have given up, and felt sorry for himself, after having a losing record his Freshman Year, and only winning 5 matches. He decided to not give up and just worked harder! I salute you Dustin!

I am a bit rusty on scoring and the camera got blocked during a few whistles but I scored it like this...
Dustin (red) Escape Take down Take down Opponent (green) Escape Escape I see what must be the pin at the very end. I still did not see the referee tap the mat. It must have been a subtle tap at the time the guy walks in front of the camera.

To all the haters and doubters on this string:
Go to flowrestling . com (no spaces) and watch the video of him getting recognized after being eliminated from the state tournament. The entire stadium roars for several minutes and gives a standing ovation. It is obvious all the people at the state tournament disagree with you.

The 103-pound wrestler from Hillsboro (Ohio) High had to have each of his limbs amputated when he was 5 after contracting a rare, life-threatening blood disorder. Before taking a rare 1-0 loss at the National High School Coaches Association Senior Nationals in Virginia Beach, Carter owned a 41-2 record on the season and had reached the state championships. He finished third in his school's region and inked his name among the state's best wrestlers.

Yep!
And that's after 4 years of hard hard work. His freshman year he was terrible and went 5-15, but like a true champion Dustin never gave up and worked even HARDER. His senior season was the reward for all that hard work. I salute Dustin Carter!
