Great match so far. Jax makes everything exciting and Davino looks super solid. Offense and defense scores.
Joe Sealey won his consolation bracket match.
3-0 Blaze over Gross at the break.
Davino up 8-3 on Forrest with a minute left.

Jax and Mark Hall look like they should have wrestled the same weight in college.
Davino looked incredible. He completely shut Jax down. Might slow down the hype train a bit
Blaze vs Davino again but in free where Blaze has owned their series. I kind of wish it was Blaze vs Jax but I’ll take it
Penn State's Marcus Blaze will face a familiar foe, Ohio State's Ben Davino, in tomorrow's 61-kilogram US Open final. The Nittany Lion beat Seth Gross of Wisconsin RTC by decision, 6-1, on the strength of three takedowns.

61 kilogram finals: Marcus Blaze vs. Ben Davino

Bassett is deadly from that front headlock. He goes head in the hole to a single or a go behind and no one can stop it
A little bit of me thinks that Cael changed things a couple years ago from peaking at nationals to wrestling a high level year round - B1Gs, NCAAs, summer freestyke, etc. while DT only learned NCAA peaking from him.
Yeah. We should have signed Bassett.
Bo Bassett techs Beau Bartlett
The incoming Virginia Tech standout beat up the former Nittany Lion in one 65-kilogram final. Bassett won by technical fall, 10-0, in 3:38.
Looks like HEnson got Kasak with a eye poke with Kasak leading 1-0 off a step out at the 5:00 mark. Injury time at the moment.
It couldn’t be concussion. He wouldn’t be wrestling.

Kasak should wear a full head helmet for wrestling
The broken nose theory on Kasak makes some sense to me. He immediately grabs his nose each time.
What the hell is going on with Kasak? Is it constant eye pokes? If it’s concussion pull him off mat
Yes, that definitely is a valid theory, for sure. True? I don't know. But sure seems feasible.
hopefully James or Duke can certify at 157. This sucks. Kasak was my favorite wrestler to watch two years ago.
Tyler Kasak MFFS out of his semi with Henson.
MFF. I definitely think that’s the right call. I’m not sure about a broken nose. Seems like he would have a face mask on if that was the case
Man that's rough to watch . I thought he would default after the 1st one of the match
Put Kasak in that room Ali Larter lived in for the Final Destination movie until September
Duke needs to hold 157 for 1 more year. That makes the most sense if possible.
Tyler Kasak medically defaults out of his semi
Despite leading Virginia Tech's Caleb Henson 1-0 in one 70-kilogram semifinal, Penn State's Tyler Kasak was forced to medically forfeit the match nearly midway through. The nature of the injury is unclear, though he grabbed at his face before going down to the mat, and it wasn't the first time in this tournament. Henson will face Ridge Lovett in tomorrow's final.Maybe this is where Bridezillla Bartlett goes full throttle on Bassett!
Lots of time. Let's wait to see what was going on with him, and I trust our coaching staff to figure out what is best moving forward.
