Official <strong>NCAA</strong> <strong>Wrestling</strong> Rules<br />
No. 74—NEAR FALL. A near fall can be scored<br />
in a pinning situation if both scapulae of the defensive<br />
wrestler are held within four inches of the mat<br />
for at least two seconds. Note that the elbows of the<br />
defensive wrestler are not touching the mat.<br />
Nos. 72 and 73—NEAR FALL. In both illustrations<br />
above, a near fall can be scored if<br />
held for at least two seconds.<br />
No. 75—NEAR FALL. Although the defensive<br />
wrestler’s back is not within 45 degrees, the offensive<br />
wrestler has put one of the defensive wrestler’s<br />
shoulders on the mat and the other within 45<br />
degrees of the mat, and therefore can earn a near<br />
fall if held for at least two seconds.<br />
No. 76—NEAR FALL. The offensive<br />
wrestler is in control and<br />
holding the defensive wrestler<br />
in a bridge position. A near fall<br />
shall be awarded if this position<br />
is held for at least two seconds.<br />
No. 77—NEAR<br />
FALL. The offensive<br />
wrestler is in control and<br />
holding the defensive<br />
wrestler’s shoulder to the<br />
mat with the other shoulder<br />
at an angle of 45<br />
degrees to the mat. A near<br />
fall shall be awarded if<br />
this position is held for at<br />
least two seconds.
