Greco world team trials

[CholleyVandine]

Mason Manville won his first match in the challenge tournament, 5-0. He has Cody Pack coming up in the semis. If he wins the tournament today, he'll face Kamal Bey tomorrow for the 77 kg spot on the world team. Ben Provisor is already sitting in tomorrow's final at 87 kg.

Good day for the Happy Valley guys so far.

Kudos to Dom Bradley for taking advantage of the Transition Camp held in Missouri and giving the Greco WTTs a shot. I'm disappointed that it doesn't seem we have any more than him, but happy to see that he gave it a go. Guys gotta realize that even just 1 camp probably ain't gonna get you on levels of guys training this so early on. Look at Gabe Dean... He got #&$*-tossed his first outing and haven't seen him Go Greco, since. I hope some continue to look to give it the time and training it deserves.

Now, I'm off my soapbox.

Mason into the challenge finals with 5-0 and 8-0 wins.

After a headpinch for 4, a failed headpinch for 2, and two step-outs, Manville goes to finals, beating Cody Pack.
He'll have Peyton Walsh.

Manville up now!

 

[CropDuster507]

Passivity, a 4, a takedown, and an attempted throw for 2 look to give Manville the W, but being challenged.

Looked good , interested to see how he does against Bey.

 

[CropDuster507]

Challenge lost. 10-0 Manville. Sets up a rematch with Kamal Bey for the finals best of 3 tomorrow.

 

[CropDuster507]

Provisor will have Martinez in the Best of 3 Finals tomorrow.

Peyton is a stud. Never wrestled Greco until the last few years since he graduated from Navy. Great kid, great man, and so hard not to root for regardless who is wrestling him!
