Wrestling Match Thread: Garden State Grapple - RU Wrestling vs. Hofstra & UNC

[Clearscreen25]

Very workmanlike win for DeSantis

 

[Lex Knapp]

Andrew Clark now wrestling 2021 NCAA qualifier Ricky Stamm

 

[SCNJ]

DeSantis rides out McGinty for a 8-2 win, with the RT point.

Rutgers leads 23-0 halfway through the dual

Lex, any idea what’s going to happen to your coverage once Donovan’s season starts? Are you going to miss some days on the beat or are you scheduling your teams practices around the Rutgers schedule

 

[Lex Knapp]

No action in the first period.

Clark defers, Stamm chooses defense to start the second period

 

[Lex Knapp]

Stamm puts the first score on the board with an escape

With most of the action being on Friday nights/Sunday afternoons, I will be able to cover almost everything. Unfortunately, I will have the state tournament the weekend of the Big Tens, but I will have plenty of analysis before and after.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Stamm's escape is the only score of the period. He holds a 1-0 lead going into the final period.

Clark chooses bottom

 

[Lex Knapp]

Stamm cuts Clark to make it 1-1

 

[Lex Knapp]

Clark with a double leg to take the 3-1 lead with 1:30 left in the match.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Stamm is awarded an escape in a front head, and then Clark gets a takedown on a scramble. Seems like Clark's takedown is waved off, and Stamm is then awarded a takedown on another scramble. Period ends 4-3, Stamm, but the refs are going to talk this over.

 

[SCNJ]

Ref gonna wave off a takedown 10 seconds after it happened?

 

[Lex Knapp]

Not sure if I agree with the scoring of that sequence

 

[Lex Knapp]

Goodale tries to argue the call, but the head official is not budging. Stamm wins the match, 4-3.

23-3 Rutgers

 

[Clearscreen25]

What a bizarre scoring right there. Clark got robbed

 

[koleszar]

I have no idea who scored or how you could award two to one guy but not the other.

 

[Leonard23]

Refs are confused and don't know what happened there. Very odd sequence.

 

[Bobbynieds]

Shaky ending, but you can't leave it in the hands of the ref's

 

[SCNJ]

What a garbage display of officiating there. Feel bad for Clark. He deserved that win

 

[Lex Knapp]

Connor O'Neill wrestling at 174-lbs for Rutgers against Ericson Velesquez

 

[SCNJ]

Uhhh pin? Ok then

 

[Lex Knapp]

O'Neill with a pin off a tilt for the first period fall!

29-3 Rutgers

 

[MS-RU]

Tough loss for Clark but that was horrendous officiating.

 

[Lex Knapp]

John Poznanski vs Charles Small up at 184-lbs

 

[Clearscreen25]

Glad O’Neill got the fall, but what the hell was that??

 

[Leonard23]

What just happened? Was that a pin? I blinked

 

[Lex Knapp]

Glad O’Neill got the fall, but what the hell was that??

I really wish had replay to go back and watch. I turned my eyes to my computer and that was it.

 

[MS-RU]

Glad O’Neill got the fall, but what the hell was that??

Seriously. I’ll take it but that was insanely fast and awful lol

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Clark can’t catch a break

 

[Lex Knapp]

Over two minutes in and no score, but Poz is pushing the pace. Small should have been warned by now

 

[Clearscreen25]

I really wish had replay to go back and watch. I turned my eyes to my computer and that was it.

He had a tilt and the Hofstra kid was bridged on his head with maybe one shoulder down. I never saw the second shoulder touch. Lol. I’ll take it.

 

[Lex Knapp]

Poz with a low level double leg for the takedown late in the first. He stays on top the remaining few seconds of the first period, holding onto a 2-0 lead.

Poz going on bottom to start the second

 

[Lex Knapp]

Poz escapes to make it 3-0

 

[Leonard23]

Seriously. I’ll take it but that was insanely fast and awful lol

I just rewound it on B1G+ app. That's not a pin. His shoulder was up. LMAO

 

[Lex Knapp]

Man, Poz is so fun to watch

 

[Lex Knapp]

Period ends on the feet, with Poz leading 4-0.

He starts the third period on top

 

[MS-RU]

 

[Lex Knapp]

Another stall call against Small makes it 5-0, as Poznanski's RT goes over a minute

 

[Lex Knapp]

Poz cuts Small to make it 5-1, then Poz scores and cuts Small once again. 7-1 with :20 left

 

[Lex Knapp]

Poz with a valiant attempt for the major, but Small fends him off. A quality 8-2 win for Poz over a ranked opponent

32-3 Rutgers as Greg Blusak takes the mat at 197-lbs
