Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Kikinou being very sticky against Peak. Leads 5-2 in the 2nd. Peak gets a 2, cuts it to 5-4, 90 seconds left. Peak on the offense, takes the lead 8-5. I'm not gonna lie, I want this 47 year old to win. Winchester appears to be in control 5-0. 9-0 late in the 2nd....Gets the final TD, wins by tech 11-0 Hedrick trailed early against but got a TD and a series of turns, wins by tech 14-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Whoa! Big swing after the judges review. Kikinou up 7-4. Peaks trudges ahead, gets the 2. 7-6 with 15 seconds left!! Nick Lee and Alirez! Alirez gets up 4-2 in the 1st, Lee ties it with a TD. 4-4 criteria still with Alirez. Tons of time left. Mendez against Zain. Mendez is just operating on an insane level. Gets a lightning quick go by, leads 2-0 early in the match. Wow. Zain thought he had 2, and Mendez' perfect whizzer avoids the TD. Still 2-0 Mendez looking strong. Zain finally gets his 2 to tie it 2-2 to start the 2nd Both matches tied at the break! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Alirez gets a passivity point, leads 5-4, Lee follows that up with 2. Leads 6-5 looks for a gut briefly. Gets a big 4 pointer, leads 10-5 briefly. Alrirez responds, 10-7. No lead is safe against this level of competition, but Lee is defending well.....10 seconds left. Late TD Alirez, but Lee wins 10-9, advances to the Challenge finals. Mendez trailing 3-2 but he's pushing the action, right around a minute left. Retherford holds him off 3-2, but Mendez is absolutely on anyone's level in the US MUSKEEWRESTLER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 All-PSU in the finals at 65kg Aaron Brooks up now against Dieringer Valencia against Marstellar 2 stellar matches on paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Bo Nickal and Cael in Brooks' corner. Pretty solid there. Very physical clinch to start the match. Both Brooks and Dieringer are so strong. Zahid and Marstellar scoreless early. Valencia with the first 2 on a TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Dieringer counters a Brooks shot and whips Brooks over for a big 4 pointer. Leads 4-0, less than 90 secs in the first. Beautiful, powerful counter, Brooks looked genuinely shocked. 4-0 to start the 2nd. Big 4 pointer by Brooks, but Dieringer's corner throws the brick Valencia up 3-0 against the dangerous Marstellar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Pretty sure these are the last semis. Finals matches to come soon. Brooks' 4 stands, and he gets another point with the lost Dieringer challenge. Stepout bullrush by Brooks makes it 6-4, another TD on the edge of the mat, Brooks suddenly up 8-4 and appearing to be in control at this point. Valencia looks very relaxed, holding Marstellar at Bay. Still 3-0 with 45 secs left to go. Wins 3-0, to set up a match with Brooks or Marstellar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Brooks just too well-rounded and too strong offensively and defensively, beats a real hammer in Dieringer 8-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Mortimer and Jimenez up now. The 17 year old Jimenez became Arizona's first female to win a state title against the boys. Super impressive and her Senior level showing here is beyond impressive. Mortimer continuing her hot wrestling, gets a quick four-spot to lead 4-0, but back to back takedowns and a leglace gives the youngster a 6-4 lead at the break. Stefanowicz up 1-0 over Jacobson at the break. Very physical with the pummeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Point for Jacobson and he gets a shot to lift Stefanowicz...can't do it...1-1, with criteria for Jacobson. Jimenez pouring it on Mortimer, leaves 10-4 with 1:30 to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Jacobson wins 1-1 over Stefanowicz. Will face Spencer Woods for the Olympic team slot. TD removed from Jimenez but still leads 8-4 and gets in on another leg attack. Leads 10-4 for real this time, reversal by the very game Mortimer. 10-6 20 seconds left. Mortimer needs a 4 pointer....doesn't get it. The 17 year old will face our very own Sarah Hildebrandt tomorrow for the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Burroughs vs Nolf. JB gets the big boo from the crowd. Not from me though. Nolf is great but JB is that dude. JB looks motivated and irritated....this should be a good one. Rau and Boykin up at 97kg Greco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Nolf with a stepout point against JB, but the red corner throws the brick....point removed, back to 0-0. No points in the first minute Rau and Boykin (originally from Tennessee) locking up, a point for Rau, followed by a flurry with back exposure....5-2 after the flurry, Rau on top.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Nolf scores first on the passivity call against JB. Nolf with a very heads-up go behind for a sneaky 2. Challenge brick tossed again. Big call here, could be 4-0 Nolf Rau up 5-2 to start the 2nd period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Burroughs wins another challenge....1-0 to start the 2nd. HUGE, high powered double for Nolf makes it 3-0. The crowd went bananas, it's almost as if they don't like JB . Burroughs has been stymied offensively so far. Another point for Boykin cuts it to 5-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) Rau wins will face Alan Vera in the best of 3 tomorrow for the Olympic berth. End of an era? Nolf wins 3-0. Will JB take his shoes off? Edited April 20 by Dingo Brigade misspelled Vera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 No way is JB going to retire in this overly hostile environment. Great match by Nolf, he earned it, but it's a little bit of a bummer seeing Burroughs fall and especially without being celebrated by the fans. Augello and Villaescus up at 53 KG for the ladies. Aden Atao and Adam Coon up at 130 kg Greco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 The savvy Augello up first 2-0 on Villaescusa. She's looked strong the entire day. Coon looks physically bigger and stronger than Attao. Coon pancakes him, gets the tech fall 9-0, will face Cohlton Schultz again. Coon beat him the last Olympic cycle but couldn't get the weight class qualifed for the Olympics. Should be a lot of beef banging into each other tomorrow with those 2 giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Izzy Style's Augello wins 3-0 and will face Dom Parrish for the Olympic Team slot on the women's team. Arujau was just honored with men's freestyle wrestler of the year, which is a little ironic because he's not participating here, but what a year he had in folk and free. Molinari and Glaude up. Trumble and Moore up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Pretty quick TD on the edge of the mat for Trumble. Leads Moore 2-0. Moore is coming off of a match that retired J'Den Cox. Trumble has impressive length at this weight. Tough to get in on him with his long arms and legs (and overall head/hands defense, of course). Trumble starts to pour it on, leads 6-1, still in the 1st. Still 6-1 to start the 2nd Molinari scores first on Glaude, looking to make another Olympic run. Gets a stepout, leads 1-0 over Glaude.

Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Moore is going to need to turn this match around and fairly quickly. He's dug himself a deep hole. Stepout point for Trumble, then another TD. I'm shocked at this dominance by Trumble. I was thinking earlier that Carroll would fare well against Trumble. Who knows? Trumble wins it and gets the reward of facing Kyle Snyder tomorrow for the spot. Glaude with an explosive TD on the edge, leads Molinari 2-1 in the 2nd. Molinari pays her back with 2 of her own. 3-2, less than 1:30 left. Stepout point for Glaude...3-3 and Glaude gets to try to turn her. Gonna be hard to turn Molinari I'm thinking....no dice, still 3-3, Glaude leads on criteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Molinari wills herself to grind and gets Glaude out for the stepout, 4-3, short time...Molinari wins a very close one with a real up and comer in Glaude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Molinari will face the red hot Amit Elor in a best of 3 with the 68kg spot on the line. Zillmer and Gwiz should be a good one. No score early. Zillmer gets a point with a step out. 1-0 to start the 2nd The Queen of Blades opens up against Makoyed. Blades with a quick 2, leads 2-0, quickly up 6-0. She's really in control of this opponent. 7-0 now, looking for the 1st period tech. Gets 2 more, leads 9-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Mayoked survives the 1st period. Blades ends it pretty quickly in the 2nd. 11-0 final, nearly pins her. Zillmer and Gwiz just unable to do much with each other. Gwiz gets a passivity point, ties it 1-1, criteria with Gwiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Big scramble leads to a TD for Zillmer on the edge. Gets another stepout, wins it 5-1. Another nice senior level win for Zillmer. Will face our very own Mason Parris for the HWT spot in men's freestyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
