PREVIEW: Iowa sending half-dozen men's/women's stars to Zagreb Open
- Thread starter Tanner Lafever
- Start date
11am CT start - but if they go in ascending order of weight class Buchanan would be roughly sixth to take the mat (plus potential medal ceremonies in between).
I know Yazdani is getting old, but if Buchanan wins he immediately turns into a world championship threat at 97 KG.
Making the team is the hard part, Buchanan has to beat the world champ.
Yazdani is a better wrestler than Snyder (granted most of his career has been at 86 KGs not 97).
I don't know if Buchanan can pull that off, but watching him closely in Folkstyle for a full year, I do know he's one tough S.O.B.
I wouldn't put anything past the guy, that's for certain.
Desanto have a tattoo? I have a hard time imagining him sitting still long enough to get inked
1st criteria is whomever has largest scoring move. If equal, it shifts to the amount of them each had.
Hamiti scored 1,1,2
Opp scored 2,2
Opp held criteria because he scored 2 - 2pt moves
Buch with a big 4 pointer in the edge!!!

Gassed? Continues to shoot and score.
Well dang!
SB looks to be a player at 92/97.
He destroyed Yazdani!!!
Yazdani didn’t’ Look small for the weight.

Buchannan has always looked gassed but still seems to have enough in the gas tank to be aggressive late in matches. Not sure if it is decoy or just finds the second wind.
It’s what makes great wrestlers great.
They just keep going.
I think that's the first time I seen SB get horsed around albeit early in the match.
Helluva run for HWC! It’s a nice boost for the club. I honestly didn’t see it happening.
Kudos to Sorenson in the corner. Three wrestlers, three gold medals

He looked a lot bigger than Buchanan.
They both could barely stand the last two minutes, but Buchanan kept shooting.

Let’s see if the ladies can get another 3 golds.
Awesome weekend for HWC! Buchanan over Yazdani 
!!! That performance required an avatar change.

Buchanan looks bigger as well. I wonder what SB’s natural weight is now?
he won that match the last 15 seconds of the1st. Instead of watching the clock he attacked and his opponent had that oh **** look at the end of the 1st. Nice tourney!
he learned the value of a great underhook to defend that
Where is all the HWC is a joke posters at today? Seems to me it has some very talented men and women currently on the payroll and they have developed a ton (other than Lee as he was already an Olympian) in the last year.Awesome weekend for HWC! Buchanan over Yazdani
Hendrickson gets caught in a pretty nasty Turk and gets stuck at 125.
Get him to the HWC!
Get him to the HWC!
