Olympic Wrestling ... Day 4

Jesus techs lower seeded Buddha. The holy war is still on track to meet in the finals.

[D3 for LU]

11-1 tech over Ishiguro... who is NO slouch.

Do the semis immediately follow the quarters?

[bnwtwg]

Would just like to point out how much faster the rounds go when Greco isn't in the way. Should be done by 6:30 if 86 takes a while.

[4xJVchamp]

Can anyone be a kind soul and post when the semis start? That way I can skate off from work to catch them

[Pinnacle]

I thought Brooks had a 4pt move that got scored 2. Not an issue for him. 

[Dark Energy]

Semis are closer to 12pm eastern

ANOTHER TD 7-1

AGAIN 9-1

AGAIN 11-1

GREAT JOB wrestle!

[VakAttack]

All three of the topside wrestlers look fantastic today.

[STLBOY]

Great round for USA! Keep the momentum going into next round! Lee, Brooks and Helen all looked great!

[peanut]

57kg semis will be Lee vs Abdullaev and Aman vs Higuchi. Good stuff

[D3 for LU]

Well... RBY's Olympics is over, thanks tp Harutyunyan losing 12-5 to Uzebek's Abdullaev.

[Cowboy08]

are we basically done til noon now?

[d3grappler]

That Japanese wrestler beat brooks at junior worlds! Also, I think Abdulaev is a much more favorable match for Spencer than the Armenian, but he is good!

Brooks hasn't been digging out his underhook, I wonder if he's saving it for scouting purposes.

I like 2nd period Brooks vs either of these guys. 

[Doublehalf]

Damn I love all wrestling and not to offend Greco purists but damn is it nice to have men's and women's freestyle on... so much more explosive and exciting from second to second...

[VakAttack]

Semi round starts at 12:15 EST , I believe. 

[D3 for LU]

Mat A is done... AND Mat B as well.
