Ragusin stalling hard on top

 

[MS-RU]

Shawver needs to be able to get out from bottom.. can't give up 2 mins of ride time in the first. Down 3-0 after 1

 

[rpiseman]

Shawver can’t get to his offense…not good

 

[MS-RU]

4-0 (but really 5 since the riding point is basically locked) Ragusin after 2. Shawver needs a miracle since Ragusin is going to stall all period.

 

[KidDagger]

sigh Shawver got too comfortable after his b10 title.. could tell he didn’t have that same fire in his interviews… damn

 

[Leonard23]

Shawver loses 3-9. Ragusin too much this time.

 

[MS-RU]

Shawver loses 9-3 after a takedown at the buzzer

 

[MS-RU]

Shawver loses 3-9. Ragusin too much this time.

Raugsin was very aggressive early and took the entire 1st period away from Shawver. He learned his lesson since Shawer has been very good on his feet at year.

 

[ScottRU93]

Shawver loses 3-9. Ragusin too much this time.

First takedown by Ragusin set tone and let him wrestle his match. Not a good start to Session 3.

Nah. Ragusin wrestled better today.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

ugh....

 

[ScottRU93]

Shawver needs to win 2 more matches to AA now… we might really b fked

No just 1 and puts him at least 7/8 match. Will be Teske or Basile

 

[PessimisticallyHopefulPragmatist]

takedown at the buzzer

Familiar?

I was afraid of this. He doesn't have an easy match in wrestleback. He could fail to AA if he doesn't regain his B1G attitude. I had predicted just one AA - Shawver is the best chance, but he has just made it harder for himself.

 

[KidDagger]

Nah. Ragusin wrestled better today.

I’m reading too much into his interviews.. before his b10 finals match Shawver sounded possess to beat Ragusin.. then after interviews before ncaa he sounded generic “yeah ncaa title is mine “ non sense w robotic tone…

 

[PessimisticallyHopefulPragmatist]

No just 1 and puts him at least 7/8 match. Will be Teske or Basile

Teske will be another on a revenge mission. Brace yourself, guys.

 

[KidDagger]

Yes ur right .. that’s a winnable match

 

[SirScarlet]

we definitely look like we have the same energy/focus that we had at the B1Gs..

** in edit... we dont look like... **

 

[mastranj]

Not much sense of purpose so far today

 

[PessimisticallyHopefulPragmatist]

Worried about Shawver. This will be Ragusin's revenge match. Shawver has to wrestle with the same zeal as in the B1G match. He would have stiff competition in wrestleback and maybe another Teske match. I hope he wins this one to assure AA.

Yup, you were right.

 

[koleszar]

Thank God for Moore. Pin!

I was getting ready to put a fork in my eye after the last two matches.

 

[MS-RU]

Moore with the 1st period fall!

 

[biochemist01]

Moore with the stick of Chappell!

 

[rpiseman]

Moore with a huge pin!!!

 

[Lerxst72]

Nice pin, Moore!

 

[MS-RU]

Cetta up next on mat 2

 

[Lerxst72]

Stay on Mat 2 for Cetta on deck.

 

[Leonard23]

 

[Harleyr1]

What a bullshit call PSU just got in Nagao match ...questionable takedown and near fall ..then ruled it was not either ...then PSU asks for second look and they change the announced call ....

 

[wngarbarini]

Who does Moore get next?

 

[koleszar]

How did Cetta only have 16 secs of riding time? He was riding until the reversal was awarded and that was close to 40 secs on top.

I don't know. It doesn't make any sense and Goody asked about it.

 

[MS-RU]

Cetta gets the opening takedown but then gives up a reversal and then the escape. Leads 4-2 after 1

 

[MS-RU]

Who does Moore get next?

Not final yet, but looks like Cleveland Belton from Oregon State

 

[KidDagger]

Who does Moore get next?

Fongaro/Belton.. both seeded 23 or higher so very winnable match… then whoever wins gets Jack In blood round… I like moore’s chances to make blood round

 

[MS-RU]

Cetta gives up a take down and gets ridden out for the rest of the period. Trailing 4-6 after 2

 

[Bobbynieds]

54 second riding time and you choose down?
Why, u give yoruself 6 seconds to get out

 

[rpiseman]

Why down 2 with the other kid having 56 secs of riding time would cetta pick down?

 

[Leonard23]

Cetta loses 5-10 and is done.

 

[80RU]

First takedown by Ragusin set tone and let him wrestle his match. Not a good start to Session 3.

As a relatively new observer of RU wrestling and wrestling generally, it is really eye-opening to see how much of a hole these guys are in after giving up the first takedown to a wrestler on the same level.

 

[Bobbynieds]

One thing you can never question, that is Cetta's heart. He will not go down without swinging
