Round Three

[dad 2 5]

ER gets Travis Piotrowski ILL, 17-9, Jr; needs this win to get to NCAA b/c 9th place bracket will be just as tough. The good points is that he has already improved on his seed
JL gets Roman Bravo-Young PSU, 18-3, Fr; OUCH!
TM gets Kyle Luigs IND, 18-15, RS Fr; hope to see a win and advances
CM gets Jordan Shearer NEB, 10-9, Jr; hope to see a win here but needs one after that yet
GM gets Ryan Deakin NU, 26-3, Jr; 2x OUCH! it would be great to see another win from GM but this is a tough one and 9th place bracket looks to be stacked too
EW gets Alex Marinelli IOWA, 21-0, So; time to get he win!
RC gets Joe Grello RUT, 14-8, RS So; Needs this win!
MR gets Brandon Krone MINN, 9-14, RS Sr; a win here gets him qualified
BB gets Zack Chakonis NU, 6-17, Sr; BB can get this one then likely to get Dylan Anderson MINN, 13-8, RS So (that will be tough!) then still needs a couple more wins. The good points is that he has already improved on his seed
TH gets Gable Steveson MINN, 29-0, Fr; gets Jensen vs Parris winner most likely but is qualified if I looked at it right

Not a great start....

[crossface21]

Not a great start....

The first two were freerolls. If we pull either upset, awesome! If not, oh well.

Expectations start at 141.

Correct. But it would have been nice to get 1 of them.

Reinhardt and Breske with nice wins!

[crossface21]

Breske looks like a different wrestler. Waaaay more aggressive today than all season.

[crossface21]

Anyone else notice the mats are facing the wrong direction in relation to the scorer's table?

[leg turk]

Moran with a big win over #1 Carr 9-4

[GradeTough]

Wick needs to learn how to shoot. Man, that was painful to watch.

[crossface21]

That was terrible. Marinelli didn't do anything. Gets dinged for stalling at :48 and still doesn't do anything the rest of the way but Wick doesn't get another call.

[Harris]

Injury?  Did anyone see it?

[PAUL]

Seems like Breske might have a major upset up his sleeve....

[leg turk]

Breske has definitely turned the corner.  Seems like he's figuted out his weight.

RC appeared to twist his knee a little.  He looked like he was walking on it fine after he got up though.  I think they were just being cautious.

[leg turk]

All 10 Badgers still alive for tomorrow.

And 6 NCAA qualifiers.

[wrastle63]

Overall very happy with how the Badgers are wrestling. Moran majors Carr who just beat him, Breske dominating guys who he lost to, etc. All 10 badgers wrestling on day 2! Lot of big matches this morning.

[npope]

Very happy for the individual successes of some of the guys like Breske (seemingly turning a corner - I hope) and Moran's big win over Carr. Hope to see a couple more wins like that emerge today.
