Where are the stall calls against Fix?
Got it in rideouts with Fix on top, and he gave up the escape -- Ragusin up 3-1 going into his choice.

Smith challenging the escape.

Challenge upheld after lengthy delay, 2-1 Ragusin going into his choice.
 
I’m not going to complain about a true freshman ranked in the 40s on the big boards winning Big Tens and losing by a point in the QFs and in OT in the BR. Future is bright with him.
Braeden was a pleasant surprise. He has a lot to hang his hat on, though I am sure that is of little consolation to him right now.

I think Aaron’s biggest enemy is the 3-point takedown. He gets in a hole against the better wrestlers and cannot recover.

Aaron’s chain wrestling can improve. He seems to get in low and deep and then pause and let his opponent counter.

My $0.02 from my couch.
