For shaking too many hands after losses when they should be social distancing maybe?
2021 NCAAs
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Wow. Poor Brady. What a stud human at life. I’ve been critical watching his style at times but that’s me just being a dumb fan. He’s a human and dang he’s had quite a bit of adversity. Wishing him the best.
Even that doesn't do it sometimes. Spend some time on the football board for all the unsolicited football education from SJ you can imagine...
lmao
What excuse? What doubling down? I made a sarcastic comment. Some didnt find it funny. That’s pretty much the end of the story...
125 Consolation R3: Robbie Howard vs. Patrick McKee (Minnesota)
I'll use PK for the opponent
Per 1
McKee in on a single, Howard with a whizzer, then Howard grabs an ankle and they scramble, MKee elevates then Howard in a split, but McKee eventually with the TD, 0-2. Howard to his feet but they go OOB with 2:?? left. Howard to his base, and then flattened. McKee tilts him but only gets 1 swipe so no NF. McKee flips Howard over and gets the pin at 2:04. Howard is holding his left shoulder kind of strange, so he may have tweaked it there.
Tough sequence of matches for PSU

Oof, Howard pinned, looks like he hurt his left arm in the process. Not a bad tournament though, future looks bright here. Just has to get stronger from bottom.
Um.....that first turn was actually a full nelson. Hand across the neck and then the right hand pry high shoulder. They do not have to touch.
And $$ says that's where the re-injury occurred.

All I care right now is Howard is okay ... good lord.
And it wasn't Effing hard to see. At this level when a guy goes over on a "half" like that, there's a good bet it's not a half. BS.
I appreciate the updates on local kids. It didn’t seem to take away from the PSU coverage to me. Just my opinion...
At this point any delusions of a team title are done. Tough for Brady and Robbie and they have all year to heal.
Nick Lee and RBY in semis. 4 still alive next round. Let’s go boys!
Time for them to get what they want!

A team point WAS deducted for the Murin head gear toss.
PSU looked good early on in Session 3A, but an injury to Berge and then Howard getting pinned (and possibly injured) took some of the shine off of the session.

EPSN3 -- they'll have coverage on all 8 mats. You can watch multiple mats simultaneously on your computer, or watch only 1 mat -- you decide.

Jeff Byers's radio PBP will be streamed. I don't believe there is a pre-session portion, with coverage starting at 3 pm EDT. You can access the audio stream at:

Unfortunately, I'm out for PBP in this session. I have something else to attend to. Hopefully, others can step forward and provide PBP.
I'll be back for Session 4 tonight.
Team Scoring:
The best place, IMHO, to get updated team scoring is the Penn State Wrestling Club's web site. You can access the virtual team scoring at:
Mat Assignments:
I post upcoming PSU mat assignments as I learn of them. Others do as well; we try to help each other out during NCAAs. The best sources I have found for mat assignments in past Nationals were TrackWrestling (go to their dashboard) or the Twitter account of Penn State Wresting (@pennstateWREST).
Let's keep it going, PSU

Just praying for no more injuries this tournament at this point.
Hopefully this session goes better than the 3rd session ended. Sheesh.
Local to where? Should he talk about all the PA guys since PSU is in Pennsylvania?
I agree with others he is there for Penn State and that should be his focus. Unless he is paying his own freight and is there to provide NCAA commentary. If that is the case then him calling other matches while a PSU guy is wrestling is understandable.
I was about to ask - Didn't Howard have a previous shoulder injury, and could this be a re-injury of the previous condition? If so, that could be even more concerning.
Injuries always provide perspective of how fragile life can be. At this level of wrestling all it takes is one twist or turn in the wrong direction and suddenly instead of thinking about chasing your dream, you’re wondering whether you’ll ever wrestle again. Thoughts and prayers with Brady and Robbie for a complete recovery.
He did and that's what delayed his return this year.
I supposed I don't need to explain why a full nelson is illegal but the consequences of it's use result in a larger percentage of neck and shoulder injuries. May as well just scissor the head.
Interesting. As a ref, I often notice those things as soon as they happen. But with doing PBP, I actually was correcting something I had keyed in, so turned from the video stream until after Howard was turned. I'll have to try to go back and watch the match (probably not until after NCAAs are over).
He spent a good portion of his senior year on the sidelines with his arm in a sling and then had surgery (after winning the state championship). Pretty amazing to me that he competed at all this year.
