Going to be some great competition for these guys. Looking forward to see where Marinelli and Happel stack up. Happel has some studs at his weight - Lugo Yianni, Storr.

Happel vs Storr is the match I really want to see. I think they went 2nd and 3rd at Fargo last summer. Gives us a preview of what to expect this coming season

Thomsen and Sherry better step their game up significantly for this weekend. Good for them trying big boys out.

Glad to see Young at 79

I think it's crazy that Thomsen is first year junior and Teasdale is going into his second year.

I think it's crazy that Thomsen is first year junior and Teasdale is going into his second year.

Wait, is that serious? Teasdale is a high school Junior and Thomsen is a Freshmen in College and you are saying that Teasdale is a year OLDER for wrestling age bracket purposes? If that is true that is pretty crazy.

Pretty sure you have the wrong Thomsen.

 

[JustWrestle133]

I'm asking. I don't know. So, not Max Thomsen?

 

[crablegs1]

Pretty sure you have the wrong Thomsen.

even so, Teasdale is still old. Lugo is wrestling in this age group too and just finished his sophomore year in college.

 

[SPOONER]

I think he meant Alex but I could very well be very wrong.

 

[Jaybird319]

I meant Alex

Marinelli vs Johnny Blankenship
Happel BYE
Young vs Michael Otomo

Blankenship was 19-10 last year for Nebraska at 165 pounds, not sure I saw a high profile win for him in his results page
(h/t to WrestleStat https://www.wrestlestat.com/wrestler/45857/blankenship-john/profile)

Otomo was a 197'er at Wisconsin-La Crosse, didn't qualify for nationals

I think Marinelli and Young could both make the finals. But these two have limited Freestyle and I wonder how there top game is and par ter defense. McFadden will be a real tough test for Marinelli. Happel looks good til he hits Lugo.

 

[funnyfletcher]

Murphy won his first match. Glynn is up now.

 

[akaoni]

Good face-mushing by Moody in his last match following the tech.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

You just triggered Foley! You monster!!!!!

 

[HAWKMANN]

I don't think the ref in Happel's match has ever reffed before. You can hear someone off screen explaining to her what calls to make and when.

 

[butchinmi]

Marinelli with tech in 1st - looked pretty good. Didn't look huge.

 

[butchinmi]

Sure fun to watch Hunter Striebler when healthy. Tech in 1 min.

Was it Tom or Terry?

 

[butchinmi]

Young....looks.....tiny.....but quick and scores a tech

 

[JohnBasedow]

Was it Tom or Terry?

Terry. I believe Tom is at the Meyer trial.

 

[SittingSwitch]

OK, I am going to be that guy: I see Flo is streaming the US Open, with 15 mats.....is the UWW Junior Tournament imbedded in the US Open and included in this coverage? I see the results and brackets but not sure on video. If so, are specific mats designated for Juniors?

Yes

 

[Multi-Hawk]

He needs to put on 10+ more lbs to be a solid 174 lbr.

 

[Spicolli]

Ramos wins 5-5
Tomato takes out Megaludis 6-5

 

[pinters]

Great matches today go Hawks

 

[LaxHawk174]

Marinelli techs in the Quarters 10-0 into the semis

 

[Spicolli]

ALEX MARINELLI WINS BY ST 10-0 2:09

 

[funnyfletcher]

MArinelli will take on McFadden in semis

 

[LaxHawk174]

Young wins 6-4. moves into the Semis.

 

[WWDMHawkeye]

Keep rolling, boys!

 

[funnyfletcher]

Malcolm was down big, came back but ended up losing.

 

[funnyfletcher]

Gunther over Moody 4-0, takes on Rahmani next.

 

[funnyfletcher]

Brownlee 12-2 over Noe Garcia

 

[WEH8ST8HAWK]

MArinelli will take on McFadden in semis

McFadden was an AA at 165 as a true freshman in 2016 and redshirted this year I believe. If the Bull beats him I will be impressed.

So will Mike Evans

 

[WEH8ST8HAWK]

So will Mike Evans

Well played.

 

[pumpdog20]

Marinelli was a top 3 P4P, shouldn't we expect him to beat guys like McFadden?
