Wrestling LIVE - Rutgers vs. Cornell Updates

Some back-and-forth action, but no score by either wrestler in the first period.

Angelo will be on top to start a 0-0 second period.
 
In an absolutely crazy sequence, Angelo gets a set of two pack points, and Richard escapes.

2-1 Angelo, with 30 left in the period.
 
Quick escape for Angelo, but he gets thrown to his back in an upper-body position. He gives up the fall. Rutgers is in trouble.

Cornell leads 12-3
 
MVB wrestling Adam Santoro at 157-lbs. Bonus here would be very helpful
 
Santoro with a takedown in the middle of the mat, but MVB gets to his feet and is out. 2-1 Santoro with a little over a minute left in the first period.
 
Last two matches were absolute killers. JoJo has to win that and GA cannot get pinned there.
 
The period ends on the feet at 2-1, Santoro.

MVB to start the second period on top.
 
Crowd is flat ... team is flat ...lost 2 close matches and a pin. Freshmen getting good experience even though the result so far sucks.
 
Van Brill hangs on tough for a little bit, but gives up an escape. Santoro then awarded a point for MVB grabbing the headgear. Santoro then immediately in on a takedown after the restart.

6-1 Santoro with 41 remaining in the second period. Quick break for bloodtime.
 
Horrific match so far. Cornell so much stronger and better scrambling and conditioning.
 
I know this is a down year but we are wrestling against Cornell's B squad and getting hammered. This youth movement people keep talking about doesn't mean anything. Besides Alvarez who is there to be excited about? Maybe Aguilar? The last few recruiting classes haven't panned out and it's starting to catch up to them. Not good at all and Goodale better start figuring it out soon. Ashnault and Suriano are long gone. Season tickets will disappear real fast if we keep putting this type of product on the mat
 
MVB escapes to make it 6-2. Time expires from the feet to end the second period.

Van Brill on bottom to start the third, and quickly escapes. 6-3 Santoro with 1:30 left in the match.
 
And now MVB is losing to a sub .500 backup who has lost 7 straight.
 
Santoro gets another takedown on Van Brill, extending his lead to 5 points.

30 seconds left in the bout
 
I'm sorry MVB is horrendous and can't be in the lineup anymore.
 
Van Brill loses 9-4 after the RT point for Santoro.

15-3 Cornell. The team simply looks flat tonight.
 
I don't think it is time to burn Kannaird's red shirt.....
Unfortunately, this is the kind of night RU can have with freshman mistakes (Jo JO and Angelo).
