Stop it. You mentioned rules above? Leagues should think about CHANGING rules that don't make sense. Then you mention teaching. What do you suppose the winning team learned? What did the losing team learn? Does sportsmanship have no place in sport for you? As your son continues to grow would you like him to continue wrestling? What if when he's in HS he comes up against a much better wrestler than he is? What if instead of quickly ending the match he draws it out for all 3 periods? He's toying with your kid, getting takedowns and reverses at will. He's racking up the points and your kid is getting exhausted and humiliated. By the end of the 3rd he's looking like an abused dog. Head is hanging, he's physically and psychologically defeated, but the match continues with his opponent clowning the entire time. He's messing with your kid, he's slapping him in the face, he's slapping him in the ass. Finally it's over. What did your kid learn? What did you learn about your kid? And don't feed me that try harder crap, get pushed down but keep getting up BS. Your kid was abused. What did he learn today?
