Gabe Dean rolls through Zavatsky.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

then again, I may have only bought a short amount of time. Still need Zavatsky to get past Dean.

so much for that ... Dean with a TF, 19-4, over Zavatsky at 5:00

Gabe Dean is handling Zavatsky pretty easily. Too bad Bo won't see either of them until March if then.

I want bo opposite from Dean. Let MyMar be the 4th seed.

Well, with that loss today, Bo more or less controls his destiny now with respect to seeding. Miles to go before we get there but with MyMar's loss to Zavatsky he'll drop behind Bo in all rankings, I'd guess.

197: Pfarr (Minny) with a major dec over Haught (VT), 14-1

Medberry beats Walz 6-4. Now on to football.......

285: Medbery (Wisky) with a decision over Walz (VT), 6-4

and that's it for me on updates. there is a B1G Championship football game that requires my full attention.

Maybe, but beating 2 guys by 5 and 4 respectively (Oliver and Lugo) that Zain absolutely destroyed leads me to believe that the Micah is in for some pain. Sorensen keeps it close because he plays it safe - if Micah wants to mix it up, he could be playing with fire, plus Sorenson is better on bottom.

Have the Jordans figured out how to deadlift out of bottom yet?

No way Micah keeps Zain to just a decision. Lugo out wrestled him till he took bottom in third and got caught in a cradle. Zain will be able to turn Micah multiple times.

... but will only need to once.

Speaking of deadlifting. Did it seem silly that Jordan has an acknowledged long term problem with his toe/foot and you're having him show off in the weight room with terrible form to boot? Lifters call that "snap city"

I am shocked that Lugo chose down in the third period against Micah with the match tied 3-3 and having over 1 minute in riding time. He was ridden like a pony for two minutes (Lugo is at least six inches shorter) and was almost pinned with a cradle. Lost 7-3. I would have loved to see how he would have done on his feet in the third.

I have very little doubt that if that situation came about in March, Tim Flynn would have put him on his feet. But doing that here in a December tournament makes perfect sense, especially if the idea is to make him better in that position come March...who better to practice with than Micah (other than Zain)?
