blueandgold Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 What are some of the best ticket round matches you’ve ever seen? My pick: #13 DJ Brookbank (Perry Meridian) vs. #4 Zach Melloh (Cathedral) in 2016. Melloh beat Brookbank twice that year prior to their final meeting earning 13-6 and 6-5 decisions, but Brookbank wrestled like a man possessed in the ticket round and upended him 13-11. Was the best match of the year behind Red and Lee. No One Famous, FCFIGHTER170 and TheNextDynasty 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Professor Morgan Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Beatty WC over Bailey Cath was a wild one Wasn’t a ticket round. But Jared Brown PH up 14-3 on Mattingly Carmel. Mattingly takes top in 3rd and pins him. Websterk149 and FCFIGHTER170 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cricket21 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Correct me if I’m wrong… but Evansville SS match a few years back, Austin Bethel v Brayton Lee. Lee being a top 5 in the weight as a Freshman. Bethel beat Lee is exciting fashion and crowd went nuts! Truly one of the loudest roars I’ve heard in a wrestling tournament.

From the few matches I saw of his Bethel seemed to have a knack for finding a move that would instantly turn a match on its head.

Heck of a wrestler. Grew to bigger accolades at Wabash. Now, most likely will be your next HC at Mount Vernon (Posey). busstogate, IU89 and Jstephenson1356 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FCFIGHTER170 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Trizton Carson vs Kam Fuller Trizton had separated his shoulder multiple times in the match and rode Fuller and a 2 point lead till last 30 secs where he was hot with a dump series and couldn't defend it and lost in the final secs not once thinking about INJ def and having to be carried off the mat.. Following year Carson vs 35-1 #4 Kemper @182 Triz was on a terror tech and pinning everybody up through conference where he tore his Miniscus and had gut his way through the state tourney where he knocked off Kemper in UTB in the ticket round on essentially 1 leg.. Kid had worst luck with injuries but never quit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CED Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Slightly biased, but honorable mention goes to 2020 NCSS 113- Dylan Driver vs. Kody Glithero. Glithero was coming off a huge win over Cottey the week before and was heavily favored to win. First period: 0-0. Second period: Glithero chooses bottom, gets the escape 1-0. Third period: Driver choses bottom, gets a reversal 2-1. Driver had Glithero on his back, but no back points. Should have been 2 at least. Rides Glithero out for the remainder and wins 2-1. Draws Mater Dei Cole Ross Friday night. Sutton047, bluemonster and Jstephenson1356 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miranda 4-2 The Rooks/Garcia match was decided by a stall call. Ref threw up a BS double stall call early in the match. Goes to the ride out, and hits rooks for stalling in the final ride out.............. I didn't have a dog in that fight, but was extremely disappointed to see it decided by a ref. bluemonster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
