I'll miss most (and possibly all) of it. Hope one or more of you can provide updates.

 

[Used2BEerie]

These announcers are a treat!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

125: Travis Piotrowski (IllinI) vs. Josh Kramer (ASU)

Most scoring in the 1st, as it ended 4-3 Piotrowski. Kramer had a rideout in the 2nd. Kramer escaped in the 3rd to tie it.

SV-1, nothing. TB-1, nothing.

SV-2, Piotrowski with a TD to get the win

 

[Tom McAndrew]

133 Zane Richards (Illini) vs. Ted Rico (ASU)

All Richards in the 1st period, and he leads 12-1 af the end of the 1st. He ended up getting a TF, putting the Illini up 8-0 after 2 matches.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Alas, the more interesting matches will be later in the dual, but I'm out-of-here for this dual.

 

[Clarion167]

Tried to watch, could not take the announcers. Would not know a chicken wing from a prime rib.

 

[El-Jefe]

You guys getting a good signal? Mine is buffering constantly, lucky if the announcers get 2 words out at a time, and it looks like they're wrestling under a strobe light.

 

[WildTurk]

Maruca goes down to Illinois backup 4-2 i think? Its choppy for me aswell.

Maruca is Lemonpie's boy

He was supposed to help lead Zeke to the promised land. Not so much

 

[WildTurk]

Illinois up 11-3. Langenderfer up 2-1 after 1 over Josh Shields

 

[WildTurk]

Shields escapes. 2-2 going into 3

 

[jrd23psu]

These announcers are a treat!

Yeah, they are!

ASU is getting worked at home by the Illini. 14-3. The 141 is the only match ASU won. Maruca and Shields both lose.

Coming up after the break is A. Valencia vs IMar.

 

[WildTurk]

3rd period. Escape Shields. TD Langenderfer. Escape Shields. ASU goes down again 6-5. Illinois up 14-3. Thats 2 upsets in a row with Imar coming up next

 

[WildTurk]

Imar vs. A Valencia.

1st period- Imar with a big lift and td. up and out Valencia. 2-1

2nd period- Imar down to start. Valencia 50 seconds of RT before Imar escapes. 3-1. TD IMar. 5-1

 

[jrd23psu]

Valencia had a nice blast double that he almost scored on. IMar up 2-1 after one, though.

 

[Abro1975]

5-1 IMart going into 3rd . nice treat.:

[WildTurk]

3rd period. Valencia down Imar leads 5-1

 

[WildTurk]

Tough ride for Martinez. escape V. 5-2

 

[Abro1975]

PIN !! IMART pins Valencia !

 

[jrd23psu]

IMar wins by fall.

 

[WildTurk]

another 2 for Imar followed by a quick Pin! brushes his shoulders off like no big deal!

 

[El-Jefe]

Martinez just pancaked Valencia.

 

[El-Jefe]

So I gotta ask: when Brooks Black wrestles, will the strobe light effect make any difference at all?

 

[WildTurk]

One of you guys can take over for me. I was trying to fill in a bit. ASU looking bad at home...

 

[WildTurk]

174- Zac Brunson vs Zahid Valencia

Appreciate the good work!

 

[El-Jefe]

Someone tell Zahid to watch out for the oil check.

Been saying it for 2 years now....These big recruits get worse when they go to Arizona State....Not all but a major majority of them !!!! THAT IS A FACT...I would never go there if i was a big time recruit....They never get any better !!!!

Well, good thing you added the caveat "not all" since you started saying that before Zeke's first match as head coach there.

Zeke is wayyy overrated....We should have had A LOT more Oly champs under him....A lot....

A major majority usually speaks for itself.

 

[NittanyLion84]

Who?

Why do you get bogged down in pesky details?

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Why do you get bogged down in pesky details?

Yeah, I think that question will end the exchange ...

 

[pawrestlersintn]

Who?

Thread killer.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

so the final was Illini - 26, ASU - 9

matches not detailed that I found interesting (just reading the scores):

Sasquatch over Brooks Black, 4-3, TB-2

Zahid Valencia over Zach Brunson, 7-2. Not many elite competitors left on Zahid's schedule this season

 

[lobo lion]

Who?

C'mon you know. A lot! At least a major majority of his wrestlers.

 

[Hedonist1]

Arizona State is lame....thought they were supposed to be a real threat with their recent recruiting and Zeke Jones at the helm. I don't see them doing anything in next few years except maybe for Valencia Bros and probably just the heavier one at that.
