125lbs. Melendez over Newell 6-3...…...…..... N. Carolina 3 Pitt 0
133lbs. Phillipi over Hernandez 3-0...…...……..N. Carolina 3 .Pitt 3

Virginia Tech @ NC. State

149lbs. V. tech with the Pin...………..…….......V. Tech 6 NC. State 0
157lbs H. Hidlay over LaPrade 6-2...….….….V. Tech 6 NC. State 3
165lbs, Bullard over McFadden 2-1...…..…..V. Tech 6 NC. State 6
174lbs. Bullard over Hughes 7-3 ...……….....V. Tech 6 NC. State 9
184lbs. H. Bolen over T. Hidlay 3-1...………...V. Tech 9 NC. State 9
197lbs Smeltzer pins Houghton...….………….V. Tech 15 NC. State 9
Hwt. Wilson last sec. Td over Borst 3-1...….V. Tech 15 NC. State 12
125lbs Camacho over Prata 5-4...……...……..V. Tech 15 NC. State 15
133lbs Trombley pins Giradi………………….……V. Tech 15 NC. State 21
141lbs Moore over Wilson 7-3...………………….V. Tech 18 NC. State 21

Moore put Wilson on his back for 6 with 18 sec in the 1st. Wilson fought hard to avoid the pin. Great Dual The last second wins at Hwt. and 125 were crucial.

OTHERS: Noah Adams defeated a 184 pounder wrestling up on Sr. night at UNI with a 0-3 record this year by 6-1. Didn't score off his own shot. Still undefeated but not his best effort

#11 Taylor Venz dominated #20 Jelani Embree 16-6. He really does seem to have 2 personalities...…..Very impressive first 6 minutes

Last Year Jensen of Nebraska pinned Parris at the Big 10 Tournament. Tonight...….Mason pinned Jensen early. He is clearly at a different level this year. Who knew that an All-state Linebacker and High Hurdles runner would improve tremendously when he focused on one sport.....

Jack Medley of Michigan just dominated Alex Thompson of Nebraska 6-1. Hopeful....but not expecting any points at 125 at Big 10's or obviously Nationals

Naah…..not going to make fun of a poor guy that now has to wrestle with a Prosthetic Leg...………

The ref in this match called some of the fastest falls I have ever seen until the Moore/Wilson match. Another head scratcher was when Moore took the bottom in the third period.

Never helps attendance when you have two pairs of top-ten teams matching up in duals a 40-minute drive apart.

Sunday’s version:

174: Anthony Mantanona (Oklahoma) over Joseph Smith (Oklahoma State) (Dec 10-5)

197: Brandon Whitman (North Carolina) over Ben Darmstadt (Cornell) (Dec 6-3)

I’m old enough to remember when JoJo Smith was “closing the gap” on Jason Nolf.

A few other interesting results:

133 - Tucker 8-6 SV over Trampe
Also 133 -- Austin Gomez has still not yet returned for Iowa State.
197 - Woodley 10-9 over Geer
197 - Smith (MD) F 2:18 over Davison (NW)
285 - Parris 3-1 over Hillger
