[Lex Knapp]

Aragona gets to a takedown right out of the gate to go up 2-0

 

[Lex Knapp]

Baxter warned for stalling on bottom

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona rides out the first period on top, maintaining a 2-0 lead. He accumulated 2:42 of RT.

Aragona going neutral to start the second period

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona goes right into a cradle off of his shot, but cannot find any back points. Nonetheless, it extends his lead to four, as the second period expires.

Aragona will be on defense to start the third, with RT secured.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona up and out right away

 

[Lex Knapp]

I stand corrected, Aragona did get backs. He’s back in on a take down in the third, making it 11-0

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona picks up the 12-0 major decision to advance

 

[MS-RU]

Great win for Aragona

what about donner and Scott?

 

[R U Crazy]

Scott got a bye in the 1st round of consi's
Donner is in 2nd round of consi's already (received a forfeit from Evan Wick)

 

[R U Crazy]

Any word on Angelo?
He needs one more win to place in top 8 and a auto bid

 

[R U Crazy]

Do they ever use common sense for mat assignments?
Ru has 3 wrestlers on 3 different mats.....

I know, they can't do it with all the teams...just frustrating

 

[Lex Knapp]

Any word on Angelo?
He needs one more win to place in top 8 and a auto bid

Gerard Angelo was warming up on the mats about 15 minutes ago. No word yet on if he is wrestling, but I'd say that is a good sign

 

[Lex Knapp]

NCAA champion Nick Suriano in the house. Could be wrong on this, but I believe it's the first time he has been in the RAC since the Princeton dual in 2019 (Rutgers last home dual last season).

 

[Lex Knapp]

10 minutes from opening whistle for session number two.

Nic Aguilar will be the first bout on mat 4

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Cmon back nick

 

[Lex Knapp]

Session number two is officially underway!

As mentioned before, Nic Aguilar will lead the way for Rutgers. If Aguilar wins, he will clinch an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar will be wrestling Liam Cronin of Indiana

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar gives up a take down, but quickly escapes

 

[Lex Knapp]

Cronin with another takedown, making the score 4-1

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar out with 35 seconds left in the first, 4-2 Cronin

 

[Lex Knapp]

Cronin able to get one more before the period ends. 6-2, Cronin.

Aguilar will start the second period on top

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar lets Cronin loose, then attempts a takedown. Refs say no 2, but Goodale throws the challenge brick. Score is currently 7-2, Cronin

 

[Lex Knapp]

Rutgers wins the challenge, two for Aguilar. Score is now 7-4, Cronin, with 1:35 left in the second period.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Cronin gets an escape, making it 8-4

 

[Lex Knapp]

Sammy Alvarez now up on mat 1

 

[Lex Knapp]

No other action the rest of the way. Aguilar trails Cronin 8-4, and will start the third period on defense.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar escapes, but Cronin quickly takes him down. 10-5, Cronin

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar out again for another escape, but, again, Cronin takes him down to make it 12-6

 

[MS-RU]

Aguilar is doing nothing defensively

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aguilar escapes, but that won’t be enough. He’s downed 13-7 by Cronin

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez down 1-0 after the second period against Kayden Rooks.

Riding time is not a factor, and Alvarez will start the third period on defense

 

[R U Crazy]

Not a good start

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez out quickly, tying the match at 1-1

 

[Lex Knapp]

No score the rest of the period, we are heading to sudden victory
