MIDLANDS - DAY 2

[c_husk]

Why did Theo not wear Rutgers Singlet? Is it because he is redshirting?

 

[Skull83]

I love the fact that AA gets another shot at the kid the very next day. I would think he would be up for the match big time, or is there some strategy b.s. that comes into play that I'm not aware of?

 

[Abro1975]

157: Richie Lewis (#RUWR) finishes a takedown for his second win of the year vs. Tyler Berger (Nebraska), 3-2. He moves on!

149 Theobold loses by point in OT. He seemed to be mad at either the Rider Coaches or officials at end of bout.

 

[Leonard23]

Theo seemed to have words for Rider coach(es) after that match. There's certainly no love lost amongst the programs. Theo still needs work on his O & shots.

 

[R U Crazy]

Tough Loss for theo...As soon as i saw him turn back and go for reversal i was worried. I think Theo is better on the mat than BJ..

 

[RUFogey]

Pretty sure one of the Rider coaches told Theo to go F himself after Clagon got hurt in the first period.

 

[Abro1975]

Bak moves on to the 3rd place consys 6-3

i

 

[Abro1975]

184: Nicholas Gravina (#RUWR) loses to Pete Renda (NC State), 2-1. Misses out and TD on the edge late. He will wrestle for seventh place.

Looked like a penalty point for locked hands screwed Gravina.

 

[wngarbarini]

What was Giraldo's score?

 

[Abro1975]

What was Giraldo's score?

Giraldo lost 5-2

 

[Abro1975]

197: Derek White (Nebraska) defeats Hayden Hrymack (#RUWR), 6-2, with RT. Hrymack drops to consolation semifinals.

Smith up 2-0 in first

 

[Abro1975]

HWT: Billy Smith (#RUWR) wins, 15-0, and will wrestle for third place at #Midlands53!

Giraldo up 4-1 in first , Ash just started

 

[Abro1975]

End of 2nd Ash tied at 2, Giraldo up 4-2

 

[KidDagger]

Ash!!! I Lub U

 

[Abro1975]

Ash wins 3-2, pt for RT does it.

 

[Leonard23]

Ashnault beat Mecate & avenged his loss against Kolodzik 3-2. Not sure why but Ashnault looked very tentative, especially on his feet, vs Kolodzik both times here, whereas over the summer he was much more aggressive.

 

[KidDagger]

Ash Vs Kevin Jack for 3rd place

 

[Abro1975]

Ash Vs Kevin Jack for 3rd place

Heck of a match. anyone know when the 3rd place matches go off?

 

[Abro1975]

Giraldo win 7-6.

 

[Abro1975]

Now wrstling

Another important ranked matchup. No. 17 Lewis vs. No. 11 Boyle.

 

[Abro1975]

Lewis's opponent Boyle is from Rutherford HS

Boyle looks dizzy

 

[Abro1975]

Lewis wins over 11thrank Boyle of American U via Rutherford HS mid bout forfeit, Boyle looked woozy and had a head wrap.

 

[Abro1975]

Bak loses in OT to Micah Barnes Neb

 

[KidDagger]

Still waiting for the day Bak can win the tough tight one sigh.

 

[KidDagger]

Billy Got Larson next... Billy has and knows he can beat Larson! This is good news for us :D

 

[Leonard23]

Why did Theo not wear Rutgers Singlet? Is it because he is redshirting?

When you wrestle unattached, you typically don't wear the school singlet.

 

[Abro1975]

HH pinned in first period by Hamer of Princeton. in consy semi ouch

 

[Abro1975]

Smith losing 5 to 3 with less than a minute to go he better do something

 

[KidDagger]

Billy Got Larson next... Billy has and knows he can beat Larson! This is good news for us :D

or not

 

[Abro1975]

Smith loses 5 to 3. Larson stalled the whole third and never got a stall call

 

[Skull83]

or not

Again with the jinx?! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

 

[Skull83]

Any sense as to how the team standings are shaping up? Do we still have a realistic shot at a top 5 finish?

 

[Abro1975]

Heavy's Peck and Stoll almost go at it after Stoll comes from behind and pins Peck. Coverage is good, especially for free, but audio commentary would make it so much better. i guess for tv tonight we'll get it.

 

[Abro1975]

Theo with the 1st period pin over Moreno of ISU

 

[Abro1975]

Gravina pinned by Z Valencia

 

[RUFogey]

Gravina got pinned and his shoulder popped out.

 

[Leonard23]

Any sense as to how the team standings are shaping up? Do we still have a realistic shot at a top 5 finish?

As of now, we are in 3rd:

1. Iowa 133
2. Nebraska 129
3. Rutgers 108
4. NCST 85.5

 

[KidDagger]

Any sense as to how the team standings are shaping up? Do we still have a realistic shot at a top 5 finish?

We are third right now.. def. will place top 5.... Hope I don't jinx this too :weary:

 

[Abro1975]

After beating highly ranked Mecate in the last bout, if Ash beats 2nd rank Kevin Jack in consy finals , I think his ranking might actually improve, definitely not drop after losing to Kolozdnik and then beating him today.

 

[Abro1975]

1st. Iowa - 136 2nd. Nebraska - 130 3rd. #RUWR - 108 4th. UNC - 85.5 T-5th. Iowa St./Rider - 64
