Moved into position for a takedown with 42 seconds left in the Sudden Victory overtime period against UTC’s Ethan Uhorchuk. One official credited Little with a match-ending takedown, then the officials agreed after their own meeting to review the call and overturned the call, deciding it was called prematurely, although Little was in position to erase any uncertainty if the sequence had continued. Instead, because the call of a takedown stopped the match, Little and Uhorchuk returned to action at neutral with both wrestlers on their feet, and Uhorchuk later won on a takedown.
