D3 for LU

I know most of you are not fans of G/R... but in the 72Kg finals between France's Ghanem and Azerbaijan's Ganizade was an all-out sprint between these two. The score was 3-2 Ganizade... the decider was scored in the 1st pd. But after that scoring sequence putting the Azerbiajani wrestler ahead 2-1, Ghanem put on the afterburner until the end (Ganizade wasn't a shrinking violet either.) Violent action... pretty intense! D3

Got that one too! D3

tanxs Spladle! D3

Welker just won by fall... into the semis she goes. Against Japan's Ishii. D3

Who thought that Kilty would get zorched 11-4 by Roumania's Zelenykh w/TWO 4 pt throws in a row? Woah! D3

Just jumped on here for the first time ( I'm at work ssshhhhhh... ) Yeah... Hafizov lost 7-1 to Bulgaria's Amaev, other than that, the "high' point was Peak's TF win over the Iranian Olympic champ... US greco crashed out like that video clip of that ski-jumper in the Wide World of Sports intro. ... And the Agony of Defeat... D3

Okay... don't watch it. Women's tournament starts tomorrow. D3

Awww... 72Kg semis in the bottom bracket. The wrestler from China, who beat Türkiye's Selcuk Can (2nd seed), lost. Booger is eliminated. D3

Well... apparently Hafizov DID get pulled into repechage. (But from the looks of it, it doesn't look like it will be a walk in the park.) D3

Well... it looks like Hafizov is still waiting to see if he'll get pulled into repechage (depending IF Hamadli of Azerbiajan win against Aslanyan of Armenia in the semis.) All others from the US have been eliminated today. D3

... Booger lost. D3

Hey! On mat 1... Selcuk Can is wrestling. (Damn he looks like Booger from Revenge of the Nerds!) D3

Yep... underachievers indeed. Let's hope Mr. Taylor goes out w/ a bang! D3

... AND that won't happen until Wednesday (damn it that UWW paired them right off the bat!) D3

Ah... I had to peak at the brackets to get the gist of what you're saying. Got it now! (NOT pretty, in a USA greco kind of way, that is. ) D3

Gotta be going to work soon... somebody take up the slack while I'm on the commute. Sayonara! D3

It's 17 mins past the 5:30am start time... no stream activity yet from Flo. (G/R bias... against?) D3

No qualifier round matches @ 55Kg... 5 qualifier rnd matches @ 63Kg... 12 qualifier rnd matches @ 72Kg, & 12 qualifier rnd matches @ 82Kg. D3

Looking on FLOARENA... the first American going on the mat (Mat C, in the hole)is Ben Peak @ 72Kg G/R. He's going up against M. Geraei from Iran. D3

Not sure about Skellenger at this time, we'll see how that will play out as the season unfolds. Agree w/ Rylan... certainly looked good last Thursday evening. D3

What was seen cannot be un-seen... regrettably. D3

The half side Bracket of Death (queuing that familiar soccer WC "Group of Death" moniker.) D3

Well... if SHP is starting the D-1 Week in Preview, then we can honestly say the '24-'25 NCAA wrestling season is OFFICALLY upon us! HUZZAH! D3
