Article: 2024 Olympic Trials Indiana Notables


Recommended Posts

Burroughs has shown off so many tools in his repertoire today. He still has elite level burst when he summons it. He is such a smart, cagey wrestler and he has had a great strategy and better execution against each foe thus far.

 

Nolf in control throughout so far, leads 6-2 with less than a minute left.

Lots and lots of boos for Burroughs, but he wrestled incredibly well and intelligently. Soundly beats Mesenbrink. Burroughs prods Mesenbrink and the crowd booed him lustily. It was chippy on both ends and Burroughs had a great strategy. These people are nuts if they think Burrtoughs won for any other reason than being a much better, complete wrestler than the very, very young and less experienced Mesenbrink. Pretty weak in my opinion. You don't boo Michael Jordan and you don't boo Jordan Burroughs, again in my humble opinion.

 

Nolf all over upstart Jacques 9-2.

Boykins pins Cooper after the latter appeared to hurt his right leg significantly and painfully. Cooper is, afterall, as wrestler so of course he finished the match on one leg.

Just watched Sage get leg lace t'd vs Audrey last year.  Pretty sure it could be different.  Sage has refined a nasty mean streak since.

Jay Aiello has really turned into a physical beast and he's competing at a very high level today.


Leads Trumble 4-1 but there's a challenge.


Cox leads Moore 1-0 at the break via stepout.


Larramendy leads Glaude 1-0 with less than a minute left in the 1st

Glaude got it together and boat-raced Larramendy. What a powerful frame Glaude has.

 

Cox loses to Moore 2-2, retires on the mat. Crowd went nuts, I had goosies.


Trumble came back to defeat Aiello, who looked devastated afterwards.

 

Gwiz up 3-1 on Kerkvliet last in the 2nd

Smith tries to hold off Sancho....2-1 Smith leads,....stepout ties at 2-2, Sancho wins on criteria...replaying the last flurry so hold on....Sancho with the very late point to win a nailbiter

Not sure what I just saw but it appeared Lee got in Brands' face as they were walking to the locker room. Probably just some intensity on display but it looked kind of interesting.

 

Page and Velte trading scores...8-7 Page with less than 30 seconds
