Match Thread Journeymen Collegiate Duals - Dec 21-22

Someone explain how you have a takedown with your head on the mat, below your opponents torso? And, your knees an elbows on the mat?
 
197 - #7 Josh Barr VS Jesse Cassatt

Period 1:
Barr with a quick TD, 3-0, then he cuts Cassatt, 3-1. Barr quickly back in on another TD, 6-1 & then he immediately cuts Cassatt, 6-2. Wait, it's 8-2 I missed a couple points somewhere. Barr in on another quick TD, 11-2, out of bounds, restart. Cassatt starts down. Barr gets him bellied out & has an arm bar. Barr is running the bar arm & is getting back points, and then finishes off the fall!

285 - Greg Kerkvliet VS Jarrett Stoner

Period 1:
Circling, Kerk shoots, but Stoner fights out of it. Back to their feet & tying up. Kerk working a 2 on 1, then they break. Back to circling & tying up, 90-sec left. Kerk working an underhook & drives Stoner out, then snaps Stoner down, restart, 1:16 left. Circling & tying up. Kerk drops to a knee, then drives through for a double leg TD, 3-0. Kerk looks to put a boot in, but Stoner doesn't want any part of that. Kerk gets the boot in & works a turn for 4 NF, 7-0. Stoner is bellied out now & time expires. 7-0 Kerk, +lots of RT

Period 2:
Stoner takes down. Kerk works another tilt & adds 4 NF more, 11-0. Kerk goes over 2-min of riding time, 1-min left in the period. Stoner is bellied out & not doing much from the bottom & he gets hit with a stall warning, 30-sec left. Stoner gets to his knees for a moment, then Kerk locks up another turning combo, but can't hold it long enough for points. Kerk got a stalling point in there though, so it's, 12-0 Kerk.

Period 3:
Kerk chooses neutral. They're tying up & Kerk is coming forward looking for an opening, 1:20 left. Kerk is pushing forward. Kerk drops in on a low single for a final TD & the 15-0 TECH!

Here's the whole ot sequence.

IMO, Haines was very, very close to the td, but I didnt think he showed enough control for three. OToole keeping hips up and somewhat of an whizzerunderhook allowed for ref to let it play out.

Once Haines let go of the body, it became three for OToole.

That announcer is the best I've heard in a long time we need more of that he actually made each match interesting. Really knowledgeable. Probably shouldn't be sitting next to replay like he said but funny as ****. It was like he was doing bong hits in between each match. Priceless

Fretwell and Rock Harrison are the best PBP guys out there IMO
 
I don’t think Levi had a td. It was close but he never established control. Good match overall though. I wish Levi took a few more chances from neutral. Definitely think this loss is a good thing for Haines in the long run. I feel like this match goes the other next time and Levi is going to go beast mode the rest of the season.


Pretty great day overall. 1 loss in 3 duals is just complete domination. Davis looked good today. Kasak’s last match was possibly the best match I’ve seen him wrestle this season. You can see Barr’s confidence just growing every match. He’s a problem. Would’ve liked to see him against Sinclair or Elam though. Lilledahl isn’t going to light up the scoreboard this season but I don’t really see anyone who I would pick to beat him either. His wrestling IQ is off the charts and he is so good in every position. Almost impossible to get to and especially to finish cleanly on him. Love watching Van Ness. He’s going to give up points but he’s going to score a bunch more. His top game has jumped levels. He is straight mean on top now. I wish BB would stop playing with fire but at this point he is who he is. It sucks that MM only got 1 match. He’s hands down my favorite guy to watch. Overall an almost perfect day. So so close to Haines winning and making it a truly perfect day

Totally disagree. Just how long in OT does one need to be on top? Are there special time rules in OT? Both legs are in, and KO is on the mat with Levi clearly above. That is a td. Hell, all you have to do is reach around and touch the opposite ankle for a td. You don't have to hold it for 5 seconds.
 
Of course our Nittany Lions are the winners of the day.......looked fantastic in every way, but I must say I loved the commentator for the PSU-Mizzou match. Cliff Fretwell, great job! He is knowledgeable, not pretentious, and very funny. I really enjoyed his call of the match. Hope we see more of him in the future.
