I love watching Jasmine Robinson. She’s had some up and down performances but when she is on you better look out. Electric describes her perfectly
Last Chance OTT Qualifier - April 7
- Thread starter backdrft76
- Start date
Okay, Flo pet peeve time for me. They frequently list their freestyle and greco match videos using pounds instead of kilos for the weights, e.g. listing a greco match as 77 lb. instead of 77 kg . I noticed this a LONG time ago, and was hoping they would quit making this mistake. Nope! Rant over (for now) : )
I heard ya.lol. Early on I said those 2 gotta be bigger than 50lbs. (Actually 110lbs)
That messed me up too. For a minute, I thought I was watching 5 year olds.
Wonder what these guys weigh. (Someone posted this on another thread and my whole family can’t stop watching it)
Lol. I can remember junior Olympics many years ago (50lbs lightest weight) not uncommon to see final scores having more point totals than two Messenbrink matches combined.
And Robinson gets decked in the semis. I didn’t see the match though so maybe someone can tell me how it went down. Just saw the result on track
I know you domestic light beer drinking piss-ants don't watch greco, but Ivanov is losing his mind on Twitter about the call in Joel Adams Finals match lol. You can't go straight out of bounds in par terre on bottom. One major miscue, and he loses his chance to fight for an Olympic team spot. It's a tough sport. But it was the right call, in my correct assessment.
Hey, hey, hey, I'm an IPA-drinking piss-ant who doesn't watch Greco-Roman, thank you very much. Now, I'm going to find Ivanov on Twitter.
We're less than 12 hours from the start of men's freestyle and there are no brackets on Track. Wrestling continues to be the most stupidest sport when it comes to marketing.
Registration closed last night! Brackets are not drawn in until the athletes step off the scale.

I'm planning to head over to Last Chance later today and check it out. I'm looking forward to seeing some of the Nittany Lions (past, present, future) in action.
Zapf has certainly been packing on the pounds… wrestled 133 as a freshman. Henckel likely sucking weight to make 74kgs.
Many a good wrestling matches, soccer games, and tee ball games have been paused to a spontaneous dance off.
Basset with a freestyle clinic. Gives first TD. Then a takedown and arm bar title for 13-2 W in first.
Bassett 13-2 in 1st.
Evans clean TD. Evans looking like he’s about to get 2nd clean TD but Basssett somehow fought it off to neutral scramble. Then Bo’s pace took over. He got a TD and a series of exposures in par terre.

Now, I'm interested, how does freestyle correlate to folk style? We can't surmise necessarily that Bassett is going to beat Evans 13-2 in folkstyle because he wins 13-2 in freestyle correct?
Nasdeo was very close to scoring on Knox twice, but then gave up the td and many laces. Still—was closer than I thought it’d be.
Thanks for the updates. I'm at work today and I appreciate any and all info.
Correct. 11 points were off short exposures that would have seen no points in folkstyle. When Evans got the opening TD very cleanly and looked like he was about to get a second one cleanly, I thought he was going to dominate. Then Bassett somehow scrambled out of it, I think largely due to his pace, and things went the other way. Bassett then got a TD and a series of exposures.
Eirerman goes down 10-5 vs Porter(?).
cenzo with another tech
pierson manville comes back from a big deficit and beats Ian Parker! i thought he had the fall

Eireman falls to Henry Porter 10-5!
Porter is a CA kid. Think he’s a hs senior or a college freshman. Could be wrong though. Just checked. He’s a freshman at Indiana
Desmond gave Rodriguez a tough match
Just clarifying a bit
Bassett got a step out immediately after scrambling out of Evans shot. 1-2
He then got a takedown (or exposure couldn't tell which they eventually awarded) on his own decent shot that Evans scrambled hard but eventually lost the position. 3-2
Bassett then got a very fast clean TD 5-2, 4 trap arm / bar "cheap tilts" 13-2
So 2 takedowns to 1 from a folkstyle scoring, but IMO it was going to be worse if it kept going. The intensity of the scrambles and the hand fighting looked to melt Evans, to my eyes
