Richards with the late TD. 

[bnwtwg]

DeSanto didn't even have time to fake an injury

[Airmail]

Holy sh!t.  

[D3 for LU]

Arujau looking like he belongs there.

Awesome.

[Dark Energy]

Vito - beast mode. 1 min Tech.  That drag to TD to lace … beautiful.

[Dark Energy]

That said, lace techs — still don’t like them.

[Airmail]

Surprised but not.  Vito!

 

[D3 for LU]

Vito w/ the "smell my finger... pleeze!"

Desanto didn't like that.

[Perry]

Vito is that guy

He officially arrived two years ago at OTT. Now he's hitting his prime and blowing the brakes off people he should be beating.

Bartlett mounting a huge comeback against McKenna

[pokemonster]

McKenna absolutely controls the first period then blows it in the second. Night and day first and second. 

[bnwtwg]

Bump

I don't think so.  What we have seen since his loss to Latona is an entirely level or two above.

Last year he lost to Glory twice.  While Glory did win NCAAs this year he also got handled by NC State's Comacho pretty quickly, pretty easily.

He has been consistently doing this over the past couple rankings tourneys. It's been odd to say the least. It's not like he blows out the gate like a JO or Spencer Lee and gasses hard either. Just consistently inconsistent when he should be taking The Leap.

Sasso with his trademark nod to Ethan Lizak by wearing the backpack to the mat

[D3 for LU]

nitwin over McKenna... I hate that rabbit!

Crossing FS and folk is the worst argument you can make against my opinion! Mainly because Vito has been performing at FS for the third season and he finally put it all together in folk. Don't forget he did beat returning 2019 world team member Fix to get to OTT finals after all...

Sammy!!!

[D3 for LU]

Berger/Sasso... wow!

D3

[pokemonster]

Wtf Sammy

[bnwtwg]

Berger with the last second points with a HUGE brain fart from Sasso. Could be 10 minutes for this replay....

[D3 for LU]

It's settled... It's Berger.

[nhs67]

Holy shit Sasso.

Even I was rooting for you after that beating he gave you last year.
