Ohio State vs Iowa

[VakAttack]

That was a weird count.  It looked like Block came out of criteria and the ref definitely slowed his count down, then went to 4 when Mendez took Block back to criteria.

Grown man vs kid right here

I doubt Mendez loses another college match

[CGriff]

DEmilio just not strong enough

[pokemonster]

Would've loved to see Mendez vs Parco even if Mendez didn't pull it off. Would've made for a fun match.

Iowa transfers are doing well

I think he loses this year.

D'Emilio really wants that firemans carry.  in on it a couple times, but Parco with strong defense.

Sigh. Parco appears content to continue to let the bonus point incentive pay slip away

His style has changed!  He used to be good for a couple throw attempts

I said he's been having an excellent year - in the sense that he's a hell of a lot better than he was last year.  Clearly improved wrestler IMO.  He has two wins over ranked wrestlers now as well as a win over Diversent who is tough.  Last year he had nothing that would compare.  His wrestlestat ranking has gone from 84 down to 47 and it hasn't counted today's victory

 The Brands do great work with the little guys as everybody here knows. I think it finally "clicked" for Cruz. He may only be 7-5, but I think he'll be a tough out the rest of the year and I think he AAs this year.

Parco got in on 0 shots but D’Emilio just not strong or quick enough

Who do you think will beat him?

Maybe. His career bonus point rate is in the 30s and was 24% or thereabouts last year so this just might be who he is against decent competition

[VakAttack]

For Parco to make the finals, he needs to avoid SVN.

Alirez.

Teemer time?

Yep. He’s small and lacks horsepower but they have coached him up to utilize his strengths (quickness) and avoid his weaknesses.

Teemer time!

Sammy Sasso always dreamed of being a Hawkeye but they didn't recruit him.  This is his likely last match in Carver.

And Caleb Henson.  And a dialed in Ridge Lovett beats him

[VakAttack]

Hoo boy!

Good call, but don't you think Alirez sitting out last year might make him a little rusty?

[flyingcement]

Teemer can lull you to sleep and then come out with a burst of power like that

Lovett looks good this year but he looked great last year as well and still lost to Parco during the regular season (and once more at NCAAs)
