Watch as Coach John Klessinger explains, and wrestlers demonstrate defending against a high crotch. The key is pressuring the opponents head down while lowering the hip and moving to the side. It is very important to always move away from the lock position. Coach explains laces versus toes if the opponent is in a strong position. If the opponent starts driving forward and your laces are down, you will slide. Keep the toes dug in to prevent this.
