3 weights.

Which means a long time with all these commercial breaks.

Sick and tired of seeing theses guys stall for the last minute and a half of the match when they get the lead. Happened every match but Ruth's. Maybe I'm too old school.

Sure looked like 2 pt. Nearfall to me.
When will officials start calling stalling or avoiding wrestling. I have seen it all day when a wrestler gets the lead. Need to make those calls to keep it entertaining. Up by 2 or 3 and it becomes a stall fest or "run away" event.

Exactly. And it's bad for the sport.

What do you guys think about Burak? I think he is coming along well. I would like to see him hit the weights a little more, but he has pretty good technique and could be someone to watch as his career @ Iowa goes on.

Tell me how that wasn't a pin...

Any part of both shoulders or part of both scapulae (For pinning area, see Illustration No. 2.) of either wrestler held in contact with the mat for one second constitutes a fall. The one-second count (one-thousand-one) shall be a silent count by the referee and shall start only after the referee is in position to observe that a fall is imminent, after which the shoulders or scapulae area must be held in continuous contact with the mat for one second before a fall is awarded.

Anyone else watching finals tonight besides me?

Been watching as well, but just wanted to check in and find out where the heck is Edinboro? PA, NY, OH? And how big is it? Saw baumgarter was AD and heard they had four guys advance past 1st day. But where is it?

 

[hawkfan340]

DSJ coming up.

It's in PA, little under 10,000 for enrollment.

Google agrees.

 

[ColoradoHAWKEYE]

Nvm. Google was my friend. Pennsylvania.

Get us ONE now Saint!

 

[hawkfan340]

Lol. Wonder what type of people you would get on whitepeoplemeet.com ?

 

[Sparky]

DSJ coming up next. I'll do the play by play again.

 

[hawkfan340]

DSJ on the mat.

 

[hawkfan340]

No score. Nervous, Welch seems to have a better gas tank this year.

 

[Sparky]

End of the first period.

0-0

A whole lot of nothing going on in that period.

 

[Sparky]

Welch down to start the 2nd.

 

[Sparky]

St. John has riding time with little under a minute left in the 2nd.

 

[hawkfan340]

Great ride. Welch thru everything at him he had.

Going to have to win it in the 3rd.
