Berge? Love the kid, But I am thinking cut may be tough or he is just timid at moment? I am having a tough time wrapping my head around his wrestling? Talent does not equal points at moment...but I have little doubt they will figure it out

My wife came running from the kitchen to watch Nolf. What a fan favorite. Amazing to watch and I am going to miss him when he is gone. I can't even imagine what you guys are going to be going thru.
That is the #2 guy in the country folks, He's not even close to scoring on Jason. We are watching one of the most dominant guys to ever wrestle in the NCAA. And we'll watch another at 197lbs. We are truly blessed.
Listening to Byers is THE ONLY way to enjoy a Penn St match. His calls at the NCAA’s- I will never forget them, never.
Did Nolf wince a bit at the end there? I thought I saw it twice, around the handshake and then walking off the mat, like an ankle thing.
I wonder if Nolf thinks to himself when out there that these humans have no fight.
Crazy that he is that much better than the field that the #2 guy just looks for a moral victory.

Amen - I will miss Nolf’s wrestling A LOT - 100% offense- freakish talent. Will be sorely missed.
I think he was trying to catch his breath. Ive seen him do it a few times.
Love Nick. Aggressive, active , fun to watch. The book seems to be out on him from neutral though. He tends to hang on those single legs too long and opponents with more length step over and hook the leg or guys of similar size dive in or reach and grab the opposite leg. He needs to finish quicker. He still struggles on bottom. It seems like he doesn’t have much of a plan beyond his initial move.
Nolf with a nice win. Should have had the major, but it’s hard to score points when the other guys backing up all match and won’t really engage. The ref should have forced the action there a lot more. STALLING, STALLING! The crowd had it right.

Interesting riding technique by White. Let Cenzo get to his feet then keep running him out of bounds. How that’s not stalling???? is beyond me.
so you go 2:45 without taking one shot... that is not stalling? Glad Hall pushed the action in the 1st period
What , they are both really good but was hoping for a little more separation and more aggressive in the neutral position considering Joseph is a two time champion
Everytime there is a shot of the coaches in the corner Varner just looks like some guy that got to sit in the corner with the coaches rather than a coach. Not saying that has anything to do with his coaching abilities. Just the body language of hands in his pockets just kind of hanging out as the coaches speak with the wrestlers
Anyone concerned with Cenzo's O? He also did nothing on top. DOn't get me wrong, He's great but wondered if he plays some of these matches too close to the vest?
2 Titles should tell me to shut UP!!!!!!!!!!!
They are, and White has had Cenzo's number up until NCAA's last year when it went to OT. This was the best match VJ wrestled against him..
Berger did torque Nolf's leg hard (purposely ) and got a dangerous call......probably a second late. He looked like it hurt him. Fingers crossed
Been there myself. I found that it's better to only let one or two coaches do the shouting out of instructions. When there are too many people, the wrestler can get confused about who to listen to. If I had anything to add, I would wait until the match was finished and then talk to the wrestler.
174: #1 Hall vs. #9 Mikey Labriola
Per 1
Nothing much thru 1 min. Labriola nearly gets behind Hall, nothing. Hall drops down for a single, Labriola fends it off. OOB and a stall warning on Labriola. Hall in on a single, a scramble, and Hall gets the TD, 2-0. Hall throws the boots in. Hall nearly gets a tilt, but the buzzer sounds. RT @ 21 sec for Hall
Per 2
Blood stoppage for Labriola. Hall takes bottom. After a bit, he's out, 3-0. Labriola gets in low on the legs and gets the TD, 3-2. Hall hips out and turns for the esc, 4-2. End. RT @ 11 sec for Labriola
Per 3
Labriola takes bottom. Spiral ride by Hall. Labriola to his feet, tripped back down. OOB with 1:17 left. Labriola to his feet, tripped down but a lock hands called on Hall, 4-3. Challenge brick thrown by PSU, so we're going to video review. Call stands. Labriola to his feet, taken to the mat, to his feet again, back again to the mat. RT over 1 min for Hall. OOB with 41 sec. Stall call on Hall which the crowd does not like. Labriola tries to reach for a leg, doesn't get it. Challenge brick thrown by Nebraska. They continue to wrestle. Hall rides out. With RT, it would be a 5-3 win for Hall, but now we go to the video review. Nebraska feels there was another locked hands that was missed. Call is confirmed, no locked hands. So with 1:49 in RT, it is a 5-3 decision for Hall.
