So we should have Nagao and Kasak in Consolation matches in the end of this Session
@GregPickel -- can you do the PBP on the Nagao and the Kasak matches? I don't have ESPN+, so if I do the PBP, it would just be my creating it from what Byers says.
Not a PSU match but winner of this gets Truax (assuming the knee allows him to go on)
Dylan Fishback (NC State) |
vs. |
Will Feldkamp (Iowa State) |
133 pound consolation: Aaron Nagao vs. Nic Bouzakis
First period
Bouzakis shoots practically off the whistle and Nagao is not in a good spot to fend this off but does for a bit going up over the shoulders of Bouzakis and then through the legs and he presents the takedown somehow (I honestly don't know how) and a stalemate is called. After some circling on the restart Nagao gets in on a shot and Bozakis tries to counter and they scramble with each other's ankles in each other's hands. Nagao is trying to come up and in, Bouzakis starts to work toward a takedown, Nagao keeps coming by picking up his right leg, and a stalemate is called. Fun action so far. End of the first.
Second period
Bouzakis is down. They roll a bit and Bouzakis stands and Nagao mat returns him before Bouzakis stands again and tries to turn in as they got back to the mat. Bouzakis trying to circle for a reversal, Nagao is doing his best to get his hips back out and they're still circling before a stalemate stops the action. Nagao trips Bouzakis back to the mat off a stand on the restart. They fight for positioning and then injury time is called for Bouzakis. He's favoring his right leg. He's quite clearly in a fair amount of pain but he's going to go with it. Nagao is going to take bottom with his choice on the restart. He escapes for a 1-0 lead and has over a minute of riding time after two.
Third period
Nagao takes bottom He has 1:20 in riding time. Nagao is quickly out to a 2-0 lead. Bouzakis is laboring a good bit in my opinion with his right leg clearly bothering him. But he's pushing on. Nagao shoots in at the minute mark on a single and gets Bouzakis' right leg and Bouzakis dives back at him but it leads to a stalemate. Riding time point is now assured so it's a 3-0 lead with 19 seconds left. They go off the edge with eight seconds left. Nagao backs away and wins.
Nagao d. Bouzakis, 3-0
