Bonus points would go a long way here Sammy! Let's get to work.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez again countering a Wright shot for a takedown. 4-0 Alvarez with 1:05 remaining in the second

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez's RT has now surpassed 2:00 minutes. He keeps Wright down until the period expires.

Alvarez will start the third on bottom

 

[KidDagger]

Nooo don’t have espn+ is there any radio to follow the action :(

 

[Lex Knapp]

Wright hit for staling from the top position. Still no change

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez escapes to make the score 5-0. A takedown with the RT point will give Rutgers the major

 

[Lex Knapp]

Alvarez awarded the takedown as time expires. That, with the RT point, will give Sammy Alvarez the major decision. Refs taking a second look at this first.

 

[R U Crazy]

WHat did aguilar do after match?

 

[MS-RU]

MD for Sammy!

 

[SCNJ]

WTF Aguilar why did you have to do that after the match.

Yeah really strange decision to tell the Rutgers crowd to shhh

 

[Lex Knapp]

Call confirmed, major decision!

7-0 Rutgers

 

[Lex Knapp]

Think a lot of folks have been looking forward to this one.

Jojo Aragona vs Pete Lipari at 141-lbs

 

[MS-RU]

Here we go! Let's go JoJo!

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona takes way too big of a step with that fake/half shot attempt he does

 

[koleszar]

Glad I didn't see the wrestle off because this match pretty much sucks so far.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona and Lipari do a lot of hand fighting, but no real shot attempts taken. The period ends scoreless.

Aragona starting the second period on top

 

[Lex Knapp]

Rider with the challenge brick looking for locked hands on Aragona

 

[Lex Knapp]

Officials take a longer look than I thought was necessary. They are going to say no lock. Rider loses their challenge brick

 

[Leonard23]

Glad Alvarez won and got the major but he didn't take 1 shot and really wish he'd start to. Can't rely on counters and funk only.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Lipari getting up to the feet quickly, but Aragona is returning him with ease.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Lipari with a stand up and few switch attempts to break free. 1-0 Lipari with 1:25 remaining in the second

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Watch the dump JoJo

 

[Lex Knapp]

Again, no shot attempts from either wrestlers. Jojo going to start the third period on bottom, trailing 1-0.

 

[R U Crazy]

ESPN Announces calling Jo Jo Argonault

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona gets to his feet, and he is out for the escape. 1-1 with 1:15 remaining

 

[SCNJ]

If this goes to a tie break I wouldn’t be shocked if either guy chooses top and goes for two ride outs for the riding time point

 

[Lex Knapp]

Regulation finishes tied at 1-1. We're heading to overtime

 

[Lex Knapp]

No shot attempts in sudden victory. Now for tie-breaker one.

Aragona on top for the first 30 seconds

 

[Jagger712]

This reminds me of the fight in Sgt Bilko where both guys took a dive out of boredom

 

[MS-RU]

ESPN Announces calling Jo Jo Argonault

That is a sweet name though

 

[SCNJ]

Is it that hard to figure out that 18 seconds left in TB1 means 12 seconds of riding time? For gods sakes

 

[R U Crazy]

How hard is riding clock?

 

[MS-RU]

Is it that hard to figure out that 18 seconds left in TB1 means 12 seconds of riding time? For gods sakes

Rider education though

 

[Lex Knapp]

Aragona gets the ride out in the first 30! He will go down

 

[MS-RU]

Get out for the win part 2

 

[DUForever]

The espn announcers are horrendous.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Lipari hit for stalling

[Leonard23]
