Solid win there for Raney. Looked disappointed late in the third when he didn't get an extra takedown. Love that energy. I'm excited for his future.
Sergio has to have the most matches that seem like they are in the balance for a wrestler as dominant as he is. And Jax is almost a sure tech in most matches but he gets in one or two spots in a lot of those where I think he is in trouble and gets out of it. And Maybe one day I’ll learn that Jax is getting scored on and Vega isn’t losing but it keeps seeming really close.
157 - Robideau with a 3-1 decision. Taylor only knows how to stall. 2 stall points for Robideau.

Taylor has great defense but man is he boring to watch.
Robideau just continues to be a dawg, I know people rag on Antrell for his offense in big matches but Robideau truly gave him zero opportunities the entire match. Incredible hand fighting.
I believe DT challenged an illegal hand lock and they ruled against.
165 - Swiderski with a 4-2 decision.

HWT - Ross drops a 4-1 decision by getting taken down with a few seconds left in the 3rd. He was in deep on a shot but Ziola worked him around for the TD.

DT wanted an illegal cutback you can't have both feet off the mat while kicking at the back of your opponent legs while trying to bring them to the mat. It was definitely illegal and is usually called while one guy is on top. Frost the 2nd ref walked away immediately after the call when DT was yelling at the whistle which told me Frost didn't agree
Great dual. Disappointing finish for Dre but he will learn from that. Ziola wrestled smart to frustrate him. Think Ross beats him majority of the time but he is going to see that type of match a lot.
Great dual overall.
125: Zinkin is a dawg and he will be our starter at 125 next year. Could he supplant Troy this year?
133: Jax did Jax things. Not much more to say here.
141: Good win for Raney. Loved watching him still going for a takedown even though he had the major locked up.
149: Vega seems to have filled into 149 very well. I thought his activity this match was good.
157: Landon was great. He seems to have Taylor figured out. One of these days he is going to finally get a takedown on him.
165: Casey is a dawg. Not much else to say. If he keeps wrestling like this it's going to be hard to Dee to beat him out.
174: Obviously he lost, but good match from Norman. He is someone I can see improving a lot over the season. He certainly has the talent.
184: White's inexperience showed here, but he is going to be very, very good.
197: Cody wrestled tough against a good a opponent and I'm very happy with his activity.
HWT: Disappointing result for sure, but Ziola is not a bad loss at all. He'll be alright.

Deshaun was fired up after losing that way. I think he knows that he probably could’ve had a few takedowns if he just goes for it. If they hit again in March, give me Dre by Major.
Dreshauns folkstyle scrambling is limited. He played football in HS so he missed Super 32 and the state of Iowa didn't have any ranked opponents for him . So all his high level matches have been freestyle.
Alright. So I was entertaining in-laws and then corralling our 2 year old for bedtime, so I wasn’t able to sit down and watch uninterrupted until 184, so my thoughts are a little sparse until then.
125: Man. Troy can take all the time he needs to get that shoulder right if that’s the caliber of wrestler we have in Rock. I suppose there’s a world where VRob is the latest guy to regress after transferring, but I doubt it.
133: Jax. Nothing else to say.
141: Loved coming back from trying to get a 2 year old to brush her teeth to see Raney chasing another TD as time expired.
149: Toddler wanted to “help” feed the newborn, and we were in intense negotiations so I missed all of this.
157: No sign of a sophomore slump for Robideau. He’s such a tough son of a gun.
165 and 174: Fighting to get the child down. She stalls so well you’d think she’d watched Antrell Taylor tonight. Only question I have is does anyone think Ryder is back this season, and if so would he be able to make 174?
184: What a wild ride the Mikey White experience is going to be this season. He’s so insanely talented and you can tell he’s intelligent on the mat. Getting out on bottom needs to get better. He’s absolutely going to have some insane head scratching moments this season due to his inexperience in wrestling, but what a crazy ceiling that young man has.
197: Great match against a great opponent from Panda. Took care of business in OT.
HWT: Like my previous comment, I think Ross could have had 2-3 takedowns in that match if he just pulls the trigger a few times. He was mad as hell losing that way, and I think a rematch goes Ross’ way by a lot. I also don’t want to take anything away from Ziola. Extremely talented kid and I think having a year in college under his belt helped him a lot tonight.
Overall great performance. I figured the Pokes would win, but I didn’t expect them to win in so dominant a fashion. Seems like it’s

A few thoughts about tonight. Rocky was a dawg tonight. He matched Robinson's counters and wore him down.
Dre was frustrating to watch because he wouldn't pull the trigger.
On Jax's first TD, I went from"Aww sh!! to How in the hell did he do that" in 2 seconds. All Cowboy fans need to watch Jax in person!
Sergio and Esh are classics due to the skill of both wrestlers. Esh knew it was over after Sergio's TD.
Great match with a good, energetic crowd.
