#1 G.Kerkvliet DEC #9 N.Feldman 1-0

Another win! Feldman looked like his strategy was to keep it close & try for a takedown at the end. He was extremely cautious throughout the match, but just couldn't get the takedown at the end. Kerk is just too powerful for him & seemed in control the entire time. Great job Greg! On to the next round!
 
Closer than need be but A) Feldman has been trending up all year and B) it’s the third time they’ve met.

Would I like him to open up more? Sure. But it was definitely a match that had me a little spooked going in.
Feldman is my winner of it all next year.

Yeah, Feldman is no joke and can really scramble for a big guy. He's continued to close the gap on Kerk. Would have loved for Kerk to work harder for a TD before the 3rd period, but he got the job done (survive and advance).

So..... you're saying thats......better?
 
It's going to be Jore Volk as he gets literally a last second takedown off a scramble from Provo's shot
 
What means more to you Brooks the masters total performance or CStars gutting it out providing they both win out.

Personally, they would both have a place on my mantle of PSU super wrestlers along with our other very best in the sport.
