Especially with so many great matches! Back around to consolations. Red and Lee up next on mats 5 & 6 Thanks for heads up. Agree on the crazy viewing. Running big screen semis. And compute and phone consols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More?? It's been a while. I said something around mid season about getting 5 AAs and it was quickly dismissed based on lack of history Jayruss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWINfan Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 I don't get why Nick Lee chooses down. It is clearly his weakest position. He had a minute plus riding time and chose down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BClark Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 2 hours ago, SWINfan said: Not sure where to find it, but I thought Yianni's post-match comment was telling. In a nutshell, he said he saw where/how he could take Heil down, but saved it for later in the match when he might need it. Maybe I'm wrong, but to me that's next level wrestling for a true freshman, especially one in a tight match with a 2x defending National Champion. Bet on the dudes who have multiple world titles/medals. Lee, Yianni, Hall, Zahid plus add guys like Fix and Gable next year with success on the world stage.

Awesome job Austin. Is the "best finish ever" as a team or individual? Chris Healy finished 2nd at nationals for Wabash. Dingo Brigade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWINfan Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Lee lost to Eierman by fall at the 2016 UWW Junior Freestyle Nationals. That loss dropped Lee to the 7th/8th Place match. That was a loaded field. Eierman went to on finish 4th, losing to none other than Yianni Diakomihalis. That field finished: 1st Mitchell McKee 2nd Seth Gross 3rd Yianni D 4th Jaydin Eierman 5th Taylor Lamont 6th Scotty Parker 7th Nick Lee 8th Joshua Terao All were wrestling in Nationals this week.

TripleB Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Read on a FB thread that DeSanto is on the ASD spectrum. Not an excuse but a better look into the mind. Depending on cognitive functioning and chemical make up those w ASD have poor impulse control. That explains a little bit. navy80 and Thor 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWINfan Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) Day 3 - Saturday morning - Consolation Semifinals and 3rd -8th Place Matches Happy St. Patty's Day everyone! We have 4 Hoosiers remaining. 1st up will be Nick Lee in the conso semifinal. Followed by placement matches for Lee, Chad Red and Jason Tsirtsis. Stevan Micic sits out this morning session and will wrestle for the 133 lb title this evening! Ohio State and Penn State are battling for the title. Penn St. had a huge night last night to take the lead and has 5 wrestlers in tonight's finals. OSU will have to make up some ground and build a lead in today's consolations as they only have two in tonight's finals. Big start for OSU with Tomasello with a fall over Northwestern's Sebastian Rivera. 141Nick Lee drops a 12-4 decision to Jaydin Eierman of Missouri and will wrestle for 5th/6th. The match reminded me a bit of Nick's semifinal loss to Stevan Micic his freshman year. Nick was great, but not quite ready for the elite level at that point. As he develops physically, we'll see if he can enter into that upper level. Edited March 17, 2018 by SWINfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Jordan drops a SV 4-2 dec to Berger of Nebraska for their first loss. Bo Jordan vs. Michigan's Myles Amine up next in a key match for the Buckeyes.

UncleJimmy Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Just an observation but it seems like ESPN could do better with the sideline guy. His interviews just seem awkward. Taylor or even Baldwin seem like a better fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is more the fact he has to chase the wrestlers down as they are heading to the back while they are still breathing heavily from their match. It would be much better if they could make arrangements for winners if asked, to take 5 and come back for an interview. Last night, Retherford didn't even take his mouthpiece out. It's no different at the Big Ten Tourney with Shane Sparks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
