U20 Day 1...

[D3 for LU]

FALL for Duke over Mexico...

Mexico comes out quick and gets in on Duke's legs but then doesn't know what to do.  Duke gets the TD and 2 laces to go up 6 - 0.  Mexico comes at him again and Duke pancakes him to his back for the pin. Exciting 44 seconds

We are hitting that point where my stomach is about ready; I'll probably go for food after Rademacher's bout

Watching the Iranian on Mat A... I'm wondering is the gassing on the mat is a team-wide issue for them.

No problem w/ gassing issues w/ this Iranian... wondering if it's a weight cutting issue w/ some of them?

I swear Azerbaijan has more wrestlers entered than any other nation; feels like they've had someone on one of the mats constantly
