Gibbons just said it again - about Kemerer being a finalist last year. Too funny.

Kemdog just medically forfeited. Some kind of shoulder/elbow injury. Bummer

Saw it, his shoulder came out twice at the beginning of the match. They popped it back in once and them MF'd him after the 2nd. Came out both times with almost no help from Berger (from what I could tell). Tough blow.

Atta boy Pantaleo

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

Pantaleo takes care of OSU's Micah Jordan with a 6-3 decision in the 5th place match

 

[nittanybrian]

Micah loses

 

[sneedram55]

Down goes Micah!!! Michigan is our friend today.

 

[NittanyChris]

Micah goes DOWN!!!

Where's Lemon Hysteria?

So tOSU was gifted 5 default points overall?? Not cool.

 

[LemonPie]

Good draw for Micah. Best win was the 10-seed. Though you could say similar things about Nevills.

You do realize that my foresight was nearly perfect, correct?

If OSU wins, it will be because they wrestled well, but also because they caught a ton of breaks in the draw.

Nick Lee finishes 5th as a True Fresh after losing his first round match in arguably the toughest weight in the country. Pretty impressive.

 

[Brian LB-U]

Wick looks like he's 7' tall compared to Marstaller. 4-1 Chance after 1.

a lot of differences, IMO. Yianni could move up to 149, which would help Lee, but Zain was right there with two monster seniors.

Do you find it necessary to constantly throw shade at Nevills?

 

[LemonPie]

If there ever was a time to hit that cradle.... Please, Shak!

 

[Brian LB-U]

Wick looks like he's 7' tall compared to Marstaller. 4-1 Chance after 1.

And Wick cradles him for the pin. Too bad.

 

[fen103]

Wow. Where were those fast pins all tournament long?

 

[Pocono Lion]

Lee is so damn sloppy he does everything he can to win and lose every match. he needs to tighten it up for next year

Nice observation Einstein. Since he’s a freshman I’m pretty sure that’s going to happen.

 

[pawrestlersintn]

Nice standing O for Barry Davis after Wick''s match.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

I really dislike that Lee-Retherford comparison. Nothing against Lee, but Retherford was clearly more dominant as a true freshman. The only guys better than Retherford were Stieber and Port.

 

[dunkej01]

very cool and very respectful to Barry D after what the the admin pulled.

Because a guy like Cassar could transfer when the solution is right in front of our eyes.

 

[dunkej01]

hell be back.

[fen103]

Man they are calling quick pins this round.

 

[PSUcup1]

WOW. Bull gets decked.

And Jim.... McFadden was on top therefore it’s not a defensive fall. My god

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Wow. Where were those fast pins all tournament long?

Really. PSU could have used a couple of those along the way.

 

[jschrantz]

Is it as simple as MyMar vs Bo for the team Title?

 

[NittanyChris]

You do realize that my foresight was nearly perfect, correct?

Oh there you are! What are you nervous about now?

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Jim Gibbons for you. Also might have just set a record for number of negatives used in a single sentence.

BoJo gets a Med FFT. That hurts.

 

[psuflyguy]

Who did Tom Ryan pay to take a MFF?

 

[fen103]

Really. PSU could have used a couple of those along the way.

I just don't get how we have a few guys completely flat and didn't get the call. This round as soon as shoulders roll across the mat... BAM...fall. Crazy.

 

[PSU Mike]

How amazing our finalists are: have wrestled 14 seasons thus far, and have made 13 finals. Staggering.
