Not bad for a kid with the skills of a 1st year wrestler..
Nice win by Verk. Still needs to find some offensive identity. Every time I watch him wrestle I keep asking what his strategy is? Upper body, 2 on 1, underhook, snap down and go behind, ankle pick ???? Something that he’s working toward. He just doesn’t seem to have a plan. He always seems to be on the defensive. If you’re gonna make some noise you have to dictate the pace.
Cassar and Brooks both wrestled the Lehigh dual. So they pulled Brooks with Cassar still healthy.
AB got pulled for the Lehigh dual. Cassar wrestler that night and beat Wood.
The scoring in that Alvarez Gross sequence was questionable. Alvarez had a standing cradle locked but got a bit stuck trying to roll it through, and Gross had him in danger but probably not for a two count. Then Alvarez finally rolled Gross though. Challenge brick comes in and change in scoring apparently rolled clock back to before the roll through, giving Gross either a TD or danger points.
Chad Red with some extracurriculars at the end. Wins 3-1 in OT
Shak got a MFF from Brunner. Gets winner of Warner-Davison for 3rd place
All that Pyles talked about during the Desanto/Piotrowski match was Piotrowski stalling.
Pyles has a major hard on for DeSanto. It’s embarrassing.
With the push outs, I think Pyles thinks he is at a freestyle tournament and points are earned at everyone.
Flagged for listening to Flo instead of Byers.
I like Pitrowski from Illinois...wonder if he’s seen the transfer portal...
He was worried about stalling. When
well.....He spent some time in the RBY match v DeSanto saying the same thing. At least he’s consistent.
The refs need to start calling Desanto for stalling with those push outs. His head is completely down looking at the mat and he's just pushing guys out which by the book is stalling.
Pyles thinks we are back in the 1st year of the edge rule.
That year you could stick your head in the middle of your opponent's chest and march him off the mat and 70% of the refs would call it stalling every single time.
Then they cleaned up the interpretation.
Now, everyone sees it for what it is - sticking your head in the middle of your opponent's chest and marching forward. It's not stalling on the opponent unless he backs straight OFF the mat OR you're in Carver with 10K screaming at you.
It is what it is with Pyles and crew, so I wouldn't get too worked up about it.
I shouldn't say crew because there are a few left that know their sh#t. But unfortunately they are less and less the face of that company.
2 wrongs don’t make a right but I believe he was reacting that way because Murin tried to kick him in the face at the end in frustration
Assad has taken zero shots in 8+ minutes of wrestling so I assume HR is up in arms wanting stalling against him
I hate to knock him for being aggressive but it was just stupid wrestling by Lyon there. He had 15 second RT advantage, Assad has done nothing offensively besides counter, no reason to take a shot there
