Ballweg vs. Drouin at 141

 

[Hawks4life11]

Two matches where we were on a whole different level.

 

[USAFhawk]

No score at the end of 1, Drouin starts the 2nd on bottom and gets the escape 1-0

 

[USAFhawk]

Drouin up 1-0 at the end of 2, Ballweg starts the 3rd on bottom

About the HWT match comment I made (sorry, would quote but something's wrong with my phone), all I meant was I don't think either one was a heavy favorite...probably ISU a slight dog there, but IMO, unless one of the HWTs is clearly better, most HWT matches can go either way.

With the rest of the matches, those 3 points mean a lot more to ISU than to Iowa. Istead of 11-3 right now (and I expected BPs from Iowa in the first two lower weights), it could be 8-6.

Ballweg ties it with an escape, no rt, Ballweg gets the TD to win it 3-1, Iowa 14-3

Thank you for giving us the updates

I don't believe what I just saw

Ballweg wins with late and unbelievable takedown

 

[Hawks4life11]

Ballweg!!!!!!!!

 

[dekhawks]

Yes Ballweg!

 

[USAFhawk]

We are at intermission will start at 149 when they return.

Some quick thoughts, Lofthouse again couldn't finish several shots and that doomed him. Rasing started out aggressive but couldn't finish, but he rideout for him was key and nice to see. McD looked pretty good, the score would have been worse if Hunter wasn' stalling so much. Ramos came out and beat a lesser opponent like he should have. Ballweg didn't take a shot the whole match, but scrambled out of some deep shots by Drouin. Ballweg kept it close and was able to counter an attempt at the end to get the TD and win at the end.
