133: Parker up 6-1 after one, with 2 takedowns and 2 near fall. Then escapes to start the 2nd, 7-1

 

[NYWRESTLER94]

Parker really capitalizing on mistakes

 

[erie lion]

cortez struggling vs Parker. Down 7-1. 1 minute to go in 2nd.

 

[fen103]

Parker starts down and gets out right away. Now 7-1 Parker.

 

[Law-Deezie]

Cortez does not look good...

 

[tikk10]

Cortez's legs looked wobbly from the start.

 

[m.knox]

Cortez does not look good...

First time watching the kid. Don't know if he's off, or this is it. He's getting handled.

 

[NYWRESTLER94]

Gotta admit that was filthy

 

[PSUcup1]

Ugh. Not a good showing by Cortez

 

[backdrft76]

Watching Cortez reminded me of Gulibon. No offense and lots of backing up. Cortez would've been stuck if the 1st period was 10 seconds longer. Hmmm.

133: Cortez goes down 12-4 to Scott Parker

Lehigh up 4-3 after two

 

[Grass]

Ouch

 

[fen103]

Cortez starts the third in down position. Cortez gets out. Parker with a td. Now 9-3 Parker.

Nice ankle pick by Parker. 11-3.

Cortez gets out to make it 11-4.

Ends 12-4.

Parker out wrestled him the whole match.

 

[fen103]

Gotta hand it to Parker. He was really slick with his counter offense.

 

[Law-Deezie]

Watching Cortez reminded me of Gulibon. No offense and lots of backing up. Cortez would've been stuck if the 1st period was 10 seconds longer. Hmmm.

Well said and spot on...

 

[tuggerjug]

133 and 141 are SUPER deep weights - both our guys can AA but I think vegas would have odds against it happening at this point.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Don't take down Jimmy

 

[tuggerjug]

No mullet!!!

 

[fen103]

Deep shot by Jimmy and stalemate.

Another deep shot by Jimmy. and another stalemate.

0-0 at the end of the first.

 

[kingslayer_85]

Jimmy with a couple nice shots but not able to convert, 1st was all jimmy but no score

 

[backdrft76]

Well said and spot on...

I stand corrected. Gulibon is clearly showing more offense today and is the aggressor. AWESOME TO SEE!!!!!

 

[Abro1975]

Elevator !

 

[kingslayer_85]

Reversal for cruz

 

[fen103]

Cruz chooses down. Jimmy's riding tough Stalemate.

Jimmy gets reversed 2-0 cruz.

Restart. Caution Cruz. Caution Jimmy.

2-0 Cruz at the end of the Second.

 

[fen103]

Jimmy choose neutral.

 

[kingslayer_85]

Jimmy take neutral being down 2-0

 

[fen103]

Jimmy can't finish his shots goes down 3-0.

 

[TexasLion1979]

Gulibon fails to finish 3 takedowns and loses 2-0

 

[21Guns]

Cruz stalls his way to the win.

 

[Law-Deezie]

Frustrating..

 

[fen103]

Jimmy looked better, but still the same issue with finishing shots. Was glad to see he chose neutral in the third.

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

Gulibon fails to finish 3 takedowns and loses 2-0

Tough fight from Gulibon, can't fault him there, just a bad individual matchup against* Cruz

 

[PSUBluebird]

Cruz didn't do shit....what a boring stiff of a wrestler.

 

[burnsie1983]

Here comes the pain!

 

[fen103]

Zain with a td. 2-0.

Gardner out 2-1.

Poor shot by Gardner and Zain makes him pay. 4-1

Now he's got him turned and now 7-1 to end the first.

 

[m.knox]

Cruz didn't do shit....what a boring stiff of a wrestler.

He didn't. Grabbing the ankle and holding on. Can't stand the thought of a Beca kid winning.

 

[fen103]

Zain goes down in the second. Caution on Zain and now on Gardner.

Gardner gets out. 8-1.

Another td for Zain 10-1.

Here comes the turk and now the bow and arrow. Pin!!!!

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Animal!

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

Big pin from Zain to put Penn State back in front, 9-7

 

[fen103]

I agree about Cruz stalemating most of the Jimmy's match. However, Jimmy has got to finish his shots.
