The US has wrestled spectacularly for the most part.  Three kids 21 and under with one already guaranteed a medal, one wrestling for bronze and the other had a respectable showing.   Zahid and Hidlay looked great in making the finals.   Hendrickson was a result of the top US hwts not being healthy and good Lord knows what was going on in Steveson's head.

The only real disappointment was Lee.  He is digressing at HWC so a change would do him good.  Cornell or Michigan are about the only spots for him as OK ST has RBY and NLWC has Lilledahl.   HWC just doesn't have anyone with decent leg attacks to prepare Lee's defense.

Jax Forrest up first on Mat B for bronze vs (KAZ) Assylzhan YESSENGELDI.

Not necessarily an easy go here.

[D3 for LU]

AND the break... 6-3 Jax

[Dark Energy]

Kaz is using finger pain to distract Jax and take him off his game.  Keeps wanting to grab the fingers.  Works for it.

[D3 for LU]

TD Jax... 8-3

[Dark Energy]

Mystery knee injury for Kaz.  

[D3 for LU]

TD Kazak... closes in 8-5 Jax

[reversaloffortune]

Finger grabs and singlet grabs, great tactic.

[pawrestler]

Wonder how they'll score that. Jax looks pretty gassed 

[Dark Energy]

Jax should have bellied out there.  Was not in a good spot.  

[oldschool]

i don't think this sequence scores well for jax..

[D3 for LU]

Kazak Challenge Jax ahead 10-7
