BTN coverage stinks. Why did they go away from Kasak match?
2024 B1G Tourney Session I Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
No doubt he meant he punched his ticket to the NCAA tournament which is the final tournament of the season. It's obtuse to think he claimed he punched his ticket to the weight class final.
Tyler Kasak is up against Dylan D'Emillo of Ohio State. After a scoreless first, D'Emillo is down to start the second. The Buckeye escaped but not before Kasak built up a minute of riding time. To start the third Kasak is down and gets a reversal to take a 2-1 lead. D'Emillio escapes with 1:30 left to 2-2. It ends that way and with riding time Kasak wins 3-2 with 1:18 in riding time.
Beau Bartlett and Jordan Hamdan were scoreless after one. The Penn State 141-pounder converted a takedown in the second period to lead 3-0. Hamdan scores and Bartlett escapes to 4-2 in the third period. Bartlett wins 4-2.
Cael has the boys ready, especially the youngsters
Down goes Rathjen! 7-6 to Miller of Maryland
Iowa Never improves.
For sure it's what he meant. Nobody thinks he gets an automatic pass to the NCAA weight class final match. It's weird to try to pin someone down on a post which was typed quickly in a "game day" thread. Pedants are nuts.....
The top 9 from the Big Ten qualify at 125 for the Big Ten tournament. Byers confirmed it on Lionvision.
"Starocci is just standing there. I'm virtually certain he will go out get one second on the clock and there will be an injury default." -- Byers
Levi Haines scored the first takedown to lead 3-0 over No. 9 Trevor Chumbley of Northwestern. Chumbley is penalized so Haines gets a penalty point and then hits a single leg takedown to go up 7-0. Haines scores another to lead 10-0. With riding time and a stall call against Chumbley, Haines wins 12-0 with 3:31 in riding time.
Doesn't mean much but good see him moving without any visible discomfort
Carter appears to be walking freely....that's encouraging.
Trust in Cael! Starrocci will be ready to go for Nationals!
Starocci injury defaults at :01 and that's the way he's going to go in this tournament.
I’m disappointed, but they obviously think he can go in the national tournament or we would have seen Bearclaw. Better to be a four timer than risk it here. Cael plays chess, everyone else plays checkers.
So we win by 40 instead of 60?
I think he could've gone. Just not worth it for a tournament we're going to win either way and we don't really care about.
His team points mean nothing in this tournament
Mitchell Mesenbrink wins his quarterfinal match over Blaine Brenner by fall in 3:59 to move on at 165.
