Damn these PSU boys are good! Another masterful performance put on by AB. Wore his ass down. Was a bit worried early but AB was just too good
That was awesome. Way to go AB!
10 unanswered pts for AB after being down 0-6.
We’re doomed! Why would anyone look to transfer to that room?
Congrats Nick, Jason and Aaron. Damn all 3 matches were great. Gastank U!
I hate that Zahid wrestles on his knees and doesn't get dinged for it
Final X is essentially going to be a NLWC wrestle off
Who am I missing? Lee, Nolf, Brooks…who’s the 4th
Hall with the TF for 3rd
Great showing by the club, the undergrads and the alumni wrestling for other clubs.

AB stronger BUT wait until AJ/Mr Fast Twitch/665/11 inch nephew gets his hands on him. THEN you'll see strong.
⬆️
GIA mental gymnastics to keep themselves relevant in their minds.
This made my night!
WRONG! He’s not beating Brooks next year and after that, we get him in our lineup via the portal. (With a little slush fund money to sweeten the pot.)
Mike Macc rolls Moore out of the arena! 12-2 with 12 unanswered!
J'Den looks enormous against Trumble. Beautiful lefty single, Trumble counters and scoots the corner. Looked like Trumble had 2 but the ref stopped action. Challenged by Trumble's corner. 2 Blue and put Cox in Par Terre. No score, back to feet with Trumble leading 2-0. Finger to J'Den's eye halts action. J'Den back on a lefty single, switches double, takes Trumble to his back but given 2 + 2 instead of 4. Goes into the break 4-2 Cox.
Handfighting for the first :30, no score. J'den with a beautiful shot for another 2 + 2 to go up 8-2. Cox in on another shot, Trumble defends. OOB, Trumble gets 1. 8-3 Cox. 1 minute to go, Cox with a counter and reshot for 2. 10-3. Cox in on another lefty single, good whizzer for Trumble, but Cox fights it off and gets 2. 12-3 Cox and that's the final. Cox and Snyder at Final X!

Am I wrong or could Bo eat a pizza and win the 92KG spot this year?
Great match up. Ozark - if you have J’Den’s contact information, PLEASE text him before weigh ins to remind him of the time!
I believe this means a Mark Hall vs Zahid rematch at Final X for true 3rd and a spot on the world team.
Wouldn't it be something to have PSU Alumni as all three 86kg USA Wrestling World Team Members.
I wonder whether any one university has represented all three spots at a weight class before.

0:10 takedown for Gable. How did this guy have heart surgery and not train for a year? Gwiz takes a shot, defended by Gable. Gwiz git for passivity. Gable reshot fought off by Gwiz. Gable another reshot into a double this time for 2. 4-0 Steveson. Another TD for Gable. 6-0 at the break.
Counter reshot for Gable just a few seconds into the second, given 2 + 2, but challenged. Challenge overturned, just 2 given. Going Par Terre. 8-0. Nothing doing. Going back to their feet. Gwiz shoots. Stalemate. Gwiz in on a leg. Stalemate. Gable in on a high-C, gets 2. 10-0 tech.
In true WWE fashion, pops his straps, works the crowd and hits his back flip!

Great US Open! Vito/ADS was the only one I would say disappointed, and that's only because I had high expectations. If I were a betting man, I would have missed on Richards and Mike Macc, but it was solid matches all night!
Plus, I went about 1/2 bottle into that 1870 and could still do PBP. That's a win! Ha

8 of the 20 participants at Final-X will be from NLWC.
I wish I did! As luck would have it, I run a local club, but our Varsity coach's sister lives in the same town as J'Den's family and is friends with his mom and sister. Because of that, I got to benefit from the relationship. However, I was a fan boy at breakfast talking to him and getting a bunch of "behind-the-scenes" info. Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Zahid gasses like he's been trying to quit smoking without luck for months.
Real nice tournament from the NLWC and ex PSU guys. Like a recruitment video.

Is "winning at every level" a good recruitment pitch?
FIXT.
That's what the cocaine is for.
That’s 40% which is right in line with the numbers that were quoted in the video that was posted about Penn State dominance.
