[RU Diesel07110]

Cancels out suriano

 

[KidDagger]

So its gonna be Savage vs The Bull?

 

[Abro1975]

RU needs to Lewis, Gravina and either Pagano or Mulligan to win and not give up a lot of bonus

 

[pish69]

If Lewis beats the Bull that can be all she wrote for Iowa

 

[RutgersRaRa]

Cancels out suriano

At minimum we need Lewis to win and Gross to not get pinned.

 

[Clearscreen25]

We really need to have match won (up by 7) heading into Heavy

R u sure Pagano goes over Grello?? y

 

[WildTurk]

Oh boy! Hope Marinelli is really healthy and ready to go! Good dual thus far.

 

[Abro1975]

R u sure Pagano goes over Grello?? y

No I am not. Pagano has a lot more experience though. We shall find out soon enough, lol
PS- Both Pagano and Grello from Bergen Catholic, as is Mulligan & Suriano !
.

 

[R U Crazy]

Never seen Marinelli wrestle....Match of the night

 

[Abro1975]

Never seen Marinelli wrestle....Match of the night

Only 184 & 285 are locks, 157, 174 and 197 are probably toss ups.

 

[Abro1975]

165- so how much has Richie practiced since Poland? At all ? lol. Man, this will be interesting !

 

[Abro1975]

165- Reboot your BTN !
2nd period Lewis trailing 4-2 or 3 depending on locked hands

 

[Abro1975]

165 mid 2nd- calls waved off still 2-2

 

[newell138]

How’s the crowd?

 

[Abro1975]

165mid f 2nd- Marinelli looks bigger and stronger than Lewis, riding time dispute giving Richie a breather

 

[Abro1975]

165- end 2nd- Marinelli up 4-3

 

[Abro1975]

165 Final- 4-4 goes to Sudden Victory

 

[Abro1975]

165- Lewis loses in Sudden Victory, ugh. RU up 12-11

 

[KidDagger]

Fk!! I warned u guys RL over bull was no lock fkkk he shoulda just went 57 and JVB 65

 

[WildTurk]

Wow! What a match.. That's why i love college wrestling..

 

[Abro1975]

Fk!! I warned u guys RL over bull was no lock fkkk he shoulda just went 57 and JVB 65

You were right. Lewis fought hard, but he looked smaller and not as well conditioned. Tough loss, probably the match difference.

 

[Abro1975]

174- Geez Grello had him on his back for a 2 count, and not even a take down ! let alone backs.

 

[KidDagger]

You were right. Lewis fought hard, but he looked smaller and not as well conditioned. Tough loss, probably the match difference.

Good effort by Lewis.. The Bull looked a lot more conditioned... there was a size diff. hope Lewis can go back to 57

 

[Abro1975]

174- Grello up 2-0 , twice could have had extra back points. Official slow to get down, lol

 

[brentx35]

Good effort by Lewis.. The Bull looked a lot more conditioned... there was a size diff. hope Lewis can go back to 57

I agree with you it will probably be a long shot to AA at this weight.

 

[Abro1975]

174 Final - Grello gives up the late takedown,loses 4-3RU out of challenges for the timing mistake, RU wilting under pressure, ugh. Match probably over here. Iowa leads 12-11. Everything goes wrong. Again.

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Maybe it'll be a wake up call for RL

 

[Abro1975]

184- end 1st - 2-0 Gravina up. RU needs bonus points here to have even a long shot , but Gravina isn't that much of a bonus guy, and Iowa smart enough to stay away from danger

 

[Abro1975]

184- end 2nd - Gravina up only 3-0 plus RT. Bonus not looking good unfortunatly

 

[Abro1975]

184 snoozefest Final- Gravina wins 4-0. 14-12
Ru up 14-12.
2 bouts to go. Up to Mulligan at 197 to win.

 

[Abro1975]

197- end 1st - Mulligan not looking good, gets taken down twice. Down 4-2, crowd very quiet, almost time to warm up the buses, feels like it's all over.

 

[KidDagger]

Dammit we had the best possible start we could ask for from 125-149... this is going to be tough ..

 

[Clearscreen25]

Really needed to win at 165 and 174

 

[Abro1975]

197- end of 2nd Mulligan trailing 4-3 and Iowa has RT. Mulligan seems smaller and weaker than Wilke

 

[Abro1975]

197 Final - Mulligan loses 8-3. Iowa leads 15-14.

Gross a HUGE underdog at 285. very bad 2nd half for RU

 

[KidDagger]

Putting in Donner at 57 was a bad move... momentum changer.... fkkkk.. need miracle now
