Zahid unfortunately showed how you handle getting dunked on. Win next time and mock that celebration.
Disagree. The word "cocky" is usually reserved for the "Terrell Owens" of the world.
Zain Retherford gets the win in Match 1 against Jordan Oliver, 8-3. Gilman up in 4 matches
Zain and JO match 1, Zain was down 3-1 with a minute left. Zain got the TD to go ahead on criteria. With :22 remaining, JO went body lock but Zain won the throw going out of bounds. A lost challenge made it 8-3.
Arujua looks good but Gilman is on another tier, winning every exchange. 5-0 at break.
Arujau with a nice single and finishes it, 5-2.
Step out for Gilman, plus a caution. 7-2.
Arujua with another single but Gilman scoots out and gets behind, adds a gut. 11-2.
Gilman gets a leg, dances Arujau out of bounds for the tech. 12-2. Really entertaining match.

Seth Gross got going way too late against Fix, who had to hang on for a 5-5 criteria win.
Interesting refereeing today with caution points being awarded on step outs where the defensive wrestler backed up, in one instance, and droppped to their knees to get a grounding call, in the other.
Nate Jackson hit a double vs Cox to go up 2-0. Jackson has looked progressively better in FS but beating Cox is still a tall order. Cox with no offense so far, at the break.
Cox with an outside single to go ahead 2-2. Was also awarded a penalty point for Jackson holding his wrist but it was white-paddled.
Jackson lunges in, Cox sprawls clean and goes behind. 4-2 Cox is how it'll end.

Haven't seen J'den give up a takedown like that, maybe ever. Nate Jackson keeps getting better indeed.
Not meant to throw shade at J'Den but shocked he's not going 97KG after that statement he made about "wrath of God" and "the spot is his" about 97KG after Olympic Trials last year.
That prob really got silenced when Snyder bet him prior to NCAA's
Mallory Velte keeps locking up an outside cradle against Forrest Molinari but can't do anything with it, probably because women don't wrestle folk. She's dominating though, up 9-1 late. I think Molinari has beaten Velte in the past, but Velte is a clear notch above.
Kollin Moore didn't pose much of a test for Kyle Snyder, who probably could have ended it earlier finished the tech in the second. TD, feet-to-back, go-behind, gut. 10-0.
Somewhat interesting that Cael is wearing a Titan Mercury t-shirt with his name on the back.

Sienna Ramirez showing up better against Tamyra Mensah-Stock than probably anyone figured, went ahead 2-2, but TMS stands for Too Much Stock, and now it's 6-2 at the break.
TMS also locked up an outside cradle, went the other way with it for 2, but Ramirez slipped her head for the reverse.
TMS with a TD but can't turn. 12-3, one minute remaining.
TMS with an ankle pick to end it.
Ramirez has maybe the lightest resume of anyone at the trials but she's a name to watch.

Just watched Gilman's match again. He is so technically savvy these days--he's a joy to watch compete. Dare I say it? It seems like he's having fun out there...
Second session doesn't start until 8 pm, and I won't be able to do PBP b/c I'll be flipping between this and the Rangers.
Would you call that above average officiating? Asking for a friend on vacation …
I don't know how I feel about the first one because ceding a step-out point happens a lot, can be tactically sensible, and isn't exactly a problem in search of a remedy. But forcing wrestlers to wrestle is positive. But falling to your knees to negate a step-out point deserves punishment, I think.
Let the Rangers go, tikk. We need you on this. Duty calls.
What time will his fight be on, best guess? Half the time the fight I want to see is late in the card and ends up being 1 am or later….
I hope the rangers get to the finals so my Avs and Cale Makar can skate all over your blueshirts and Adam Fox! It would be a pretty great series I think
