Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Nolf gets out early and coasts to a pretty easy win over Marinelli. Braxton Amos was up 7-4 in his Greco match and got injured. Diante Cooper wins by Inj. Def. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 So cool to be seeing Carroll against J'Den Cox. Scoreless thru 75 seconds. Carroll scores first with a passivity point, 1-0, short time in the first period. Carroll up on Cox at the break 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Cox returns the favor with a passivity point of his own, takes the lead 1-1 with criteria. Carroll is going to need to score. 30 secs left. Near TD by Carroll at the end, the wily vet Cox holds him off to win 1-1. Bummer, but what a performance by Carroll already. This might bear watching, but Cox appeared to be in excruciating pain as he walked to the locker room. He was moaning loudly and holding his side. Could be a problem for Cox moving forward. Nate Jackson off to a quick start against Kollin Moore, leads 2-0 early in the first. Flurries ensue, Moore opens up a 6-4 lead early in the 2nd. Jackson tied it up but Moore pulls it out.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Alara Boyd against Aine Drury (no relation, I assure you :)) Boyd pushing the action, has Drury on the edge of the mat, gets nothing...didn't see how it happened, but Drury up 3-0 to start the 2nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Boyd down 3-1 with 30 secs left, pushing the pace, looking for something.....10 secs, slips, Drury wins 5-1. Sorry to see Boyd fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) Jarrett Jacques beat Vincenzo Joseph and Quincy Monday, will face Nolf next. Heckuva job and I didn't see that coming personally. Jaron Smith scored first with a stepout against Gwiz, but Gwiz responds with a TD and 2 pt exposure, leads 4-1 at the break. Gwiz adds a quick 2 to start the 2nd., leads 6-1 Bradley with the dramatic comeback against Hendrickson...leads 9-6 with a minute to go. The wily veteran still has juice left. Kerkvliet techs Lance, made it look easy. Edited April 19 by Dingo Brigade misspelled juice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Holy moley, the crowd is gassing up Jax Forrest, who has 2 takedowns on Thomas Gilman. Gilman has 3 stepout points, trails 4-3. We have seen established Sr level stars Gilman and Burroughs have to rely on stepout points to offset the takedowns by their much younger opponents.. Gilman gets a nice 2 on the edge of the mat, leads 5-4 to start the 2nd period. Gilman appears to have slowed down Forrest in the 2nd. Still 5-4 with 45 secs left Fix and Suriano in a dogfight. Fix pressuring the head....gets Suriano's leg and the stepout. Fix leading 1-1, still in the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Gilman hangs on to defeat the incredible 17 year old Forrest. Fix opening up on Suriano a little bit, leads 5-1 less than a minute left. Zane Richards comfortably over Lilledahl. Cool to see Spencer Lee and Megaludis. Lee looking quick and strong and in control against Megaludis.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Fix wins 5-1 over Suriano. Great sportsmanship between the 2 after the match.

MattM Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Thanks for all the updates Dingo. Stuck at work so nice to have some solid play by play of the early matches before I dive into the evening session. Dingo Brigade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 My pleasure, Matt. The wifi is very challenging so I'm having to delete posts because they're timing out. I'm trying to work through it. 44 year old Aliaksandr Kikinou just knocked off Greco mainstay Jesse Porter, is in the semis at 77kg in Greco.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I'm stepping out until the evening session. It appears that Mendez' quarters match again Yianni is taking place this evening. Great job thus far by our Indiana men and women. Mendez, Lee, Parris, Hildebrandt and Miracle all still alive and working for the all-important Olympic berths. Carroll lost 1-1 to Cox and was absolutely in that match until the bitter end. Great showing by him and he is getting better and better all the time. Boyd, Carroll, Nate Jackson still alive in wrestlebacks. Great action and can't wait for tonight's all-star matches at every weight. Bye for now.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 2nd period, they handfight and pummel, both facing each other in the center. Mendez has shown that he can get the big move when needed, Yianni is a legend of USA wrestling. Mendez might be changing the guard, with a big 2 followed by an exposure, leads 7-4...Mendez slams Yianni on his head! 11-4 Mendez with a brick to follow from Diakomihalis' corner.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Mendez is on the verge of teching Yianni. I don't know what to say about Mendez that hasn't already been said. This was an incredible win...12-7. Youth will be served! MUSKEEWRESTLER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Using only 3 mats, unfortunately, mat 4 is not in use and that's where I am. Marstellar and Hidlay up on Mat 2. Hidlay continuing his hot streak with the first TD. Leads 2-0 with a minute to go in the 1st. Marstellar gets a step out, Hidlay up 2-1 at the break Mahmoud Sebie is facing Stefanowicz to make the semis. He represented Egypt in the 2016 Olympic Games. Trails 2-0 as the 1st period closes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Zach Braunagel facing Payton Jacobson in the semis. His brother was knocked out the winning side earlier today. Stefanowicz leads 3-0 over Sebie. Hidlay leads 2-2 over Marstellar. A late flurry fought off gamely by Hidlay, but Marstellar pulls out the very last second TD to steal this one late. Hidlay is literally slapping the crap out of himself in the fact. Great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Z Braunagel can't get through Jacobson's defense. Burroughs vs. Mesenbrink!!!! Burroughs looks intense! Jacques vs. Nolf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 JB playing the power game. Bursts out of his stance and gets 2 very quickly. It appears he may have a power advantage, but Mesenbrink can go all day as we well know. Burroughs with another 2, leads 6-0. Counters a nice shot from the PSU grappler and gets a stepout. Leads 7-0. The crowd is going nuts because they feel Burroughs is lollygagging between whistles. Nolf quick out the gates against Jacques, leads 4-2. Jacobson beats Braunagel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
