MIDLANDS SESSION 3

Several MFF's of note;
-- Medbery forfeits to Wood (Wood moves on to finals, facing the Stoll/Tanner winner)
-- Ugalde forfeits to Marinelli
-- Bleise forfeits to Bannister
I think I would have eaten like a champ too - instead of wrestling Marinelli
 
A few notes on AM 800
As much as I love Ironside on the radio, Matt McDonough has done a fine job replacing him. Matt has joked more with Grace and yet at times, he gets totally serious. For ex. at one point yesterday,

Grace was sharing some information and said to Matt, "When you go on the radio, you need to prepare and have lots of notes and information to share. That's why I have all these papers."

McDonough's reply, "I don't have any sheets. I prepare by knowing a lot about wrestling".

As I type that, it could come across as Matt's making fun of Grace. But in real time on the radio it came across as a genuine reply.

Now, today, when talking about Grace's football career in comparison to how fast Young decked his opponent, it seemed like Matt was needling Grace just a bit.

Grace said he had been a180# center in High School. Matt said that is too small for center and then volunteered that he had been an 85 # Nose Tackle in 7th grade. Then everyone else started to grow and he didn't.

He hasn't called any illegal fists to the back yet. Maybe he needs to prepare a little more...;)
 
Now we will get to see something interesting. Young vs Fogarty (who Marinelli beat) and Marinelli vs Glass (who Young beat).

So quick scouting report on Rohlfing. Kind of an unsung hero. He's from my backyard in So Cal. Not a fantastic resume' coming out of high school. 2X State placer 6th and 8th. He got majored earlier in the year by Ashnault. He did have a huge win that got him ranked #20 when he upset NCAA finalist Bryce Meredith of Wyoming. My gut said Carton in this one. But my gut picked Young over DelaRiva too.
Your gut did not know Young was going to spot him a 6-0 lead. ;)
 
I like it when our guys wrestle angry. We seem to intimidate as the match goes forward. Vallholl, where are you residing at as you pound these keys?:mad:
Well-rather than hide in the basement and "iron", I organized the children into a work crew and we vacuumed, dusted, cleaned bathroom, and took down the Christmas Tree all of which allow me to enjoy wrestling on the main floor this year.

BTW- had Christmas with my in-laws on the 26th and as I snuck out for a bike ride on 93 from Sumner to Fayette, I thought, "I wonder if I'll see caseyballzz?"

I was up there on the 24th-25th but stayed close to Freddy at my mother's. Planning a return trip in the future.
 
My concern with Terao is his judo skills. Thomas would be best served attacking his legs repeatedly. Don't get sucked into tying up with him or he could get dropped on his head. Smart game plan and we could be looking at a bonus point win over an All American.
 
Gilman is up.
TG misses on a shot and Terao gets an arm. Now, Terao gets a leg and knew it was coming
Whizzard by TG
They go OOB
Terao is a different kind of wrestler.
Doesn't want to tie up

Terao punches Gilman in the end- as part of the wrestling. Weird end. Little help to describe that...

Gilman wins 8-6.

I'm out of here.
 
Looked to me like Gilman was a bit mad about being ridden for the last minute plus and got in Terao's face. Coaches broke it up.
 
Who doesn't love watching a Terao wrestle? With David against NATO at last year's NCAA and now with Josh. Fun to watch! I love stall calls but I hate the stall calls on the bottom guy; both those guys worked hard that whole match and there were 3 stall calls
 
Looked like Terao was torquing on Gilman's head after the whistle. Lots of jawing. Terao's coach going insane.
 
lol Gilman. I want to like you so much for your wrestling abilities but your extracurricular activities make it tough.
 
Terao's coach was screaming at the end there. 2 bench warnings against him.
