Stanford PBP Thread

15-3 PSU. I don't know how Nevills didn't give that up. Awesome to see.

Solid win for Nick it sounds like - important to learn how to stalemate when wrestling "Dancing Bears".... Nick showing the ability to grind it out like that, and "hang on", demonstrates that he can probably go deep come tournament time.
 
Good to see Nick N get off to a good start after his injuries years. Knocks off #10 ranked Nathan Butler.

Bo is awesome.

MM has two wins at the upper weight. Impressive.

Morelli was relentless throughout, which bodes well. High energy and seems to have a lot in the tank. Solid win.

Cenzo just got caught with a couple throws early. Dug a huge hole, but he battled back and had 4TDs, including the final TD with 3 seconds left, to kick it down to a decision.

He looks really good. They will coach him about those throws and he should be a real plus for PSU.
 
Nick Surriano takes on #4 Connor Schram.

Big challenge. Should be a really good match.
 
Both guys handfighting hard. Exchanging hard head taps. Schram tries a half-hearted low level shot. Suriano gets in on a low single, but Schram kicks away. More head taps. Couple more half-shots. Schram gets a stall warning for backing up. 0-0 goin into 2nd. Suriano takes bottom.
 
Suriano sits out, gets a quick escape. 1-0
Stalemate on feet.
Crowd working the official, which is their job.
 
Suriano hits another shot. Gets a stall call. 2-0 Suriano going into 3rd. Schram takes bottom.
 
Suriano putting on a hard ride. Gets a stall warning for not working up off a leg. Still 2-0
 
Schram shoulder rolls, but Suriano follows. This kid can ride. Gets RT advantage. :30 left
 
Cortez with a couple NF. Couple more. 8-0 with a PD call. He attacks that half HARD. Geez.
Releases, 8-1
 
Nick's gonna have to get creative to avoid stall calls on top

He's going to have to learn to "ride high" and aggressive (right on that borderline of control) a la The Magic One and The Truth..... You can get away with that type of "riding for riding's sake" in high school, but probably not at the collegiate level - you'll get dinged for stalling if it doesn't appear you are trying to "improve" offensive position.
 
Gulibon with a plethora of half-attempts. McKenna warned for stalling.
McKenna shoots, gets caught in front-head. Ends 5-0 w/RT. Gulibon takes neutral
 
McKenna shoots, Gulibon looks go-behind to a single. McKenna looks ankle-pass and ties him up. Stalemate.
McKenna clock-watching something fierce.
 
Sadly. Repeat of past history for jimmy. Can't get out. Can't finish the TD.

McKenna looks tough
 
McKenna in on a single. Jimmy drapes over and ankle-bites. Stalemate :17 left.
Gulibon looking hard after it, gets a go-behind. 6-2 to end it.
 
Zain on a re-attack single, no score. Comes opposite side knee-pull. After some defense, gets a takedown with a leg turk. 2-0
