Penn State wrestling: 3 takeaways from Big Ten tournament session one
Penn State has all 10 wrestlers still alive at the Big Ten championships now that session one is in the books. Here's what we learned.
133: RBY vs Dylan Ragusin, Michigan
First period
RBY drops in on Ragusin twice, cuts once, and leads 4-1. He starts a ride after that second takedown and rides out the period with a minute in riding time.
Second period
RBY down to start the second. He stands and is out to 5-1. RBY snaps and goes for a takedown on the edge. It's 7-1 as they go off the mat. They wave off the takedown. That is beyond baffling. Well, it's 5-1 now after all. Ragusin in on a single, RBY whizzers to fight it off, and they go off the mat with three seconds left, no scoring.
Third period
Ragusin is down. RBY hit with a stalling call. Ragusin is out off the restart but 1:05 in RT for RBY. RBY had a single attempt but Ragusin kicks away. Off a restart RBY shoots in and is working around but can't finish it. RBY throws Ragusin at the end of the period, two more, and he wins, 8-2.
RBY d. Ragusin, 8-2.

Per 1
RBY with a quick single and a trip, stays with DR on a roll and gets the TD, 2-0. OOB with 2:36 left. DR up and out, 2-1.

Per 2
RBY takes bottom. DR throws in a boot. Then RBY to a 3-point and then stands, and he's out, 5-1. RBY with a lighting quick shot and did he get the TD before they go OOB? The refs talk, and they are going to video review. It was close. RBY was so fast on that shot. The TD was waved off. RBY nearly with a throw, and then DR with his 1st shot and he has RBY's leg. RBY with a whizzer, they are on the edge, and then OOB with 3 sec left. End. RT @ 38 sec for RBY
Per 3
DR takes bottom. DR to his feet, RBY stays with him, then a stall call on RBY so they will restart (or they went OOB; not certain, but there was a stall call on RBY).

A body lock and RBY gets swipes near the end. It's only a TD. With 1:07 in RT, it's a 8-2 DEC for RBY

RBY needed the Major there. Gotta get those bonus points everywhere possible.
In the finals, Roman Bravo-Young will face No. 6 Aaron Nagao of Minnesota, who just beat No. 2 Jesse Mendez 6-4 in sudden victory at 133 pounds.
No, we don't. Stop saying this. Other years yes, but not this year.
Hope your right. Just my coaching over 30 years coming out. Lol. Want to blow away the field. We’ve had trouble winning big tens. Yes Nationals is #1 goal.
Brian Soldano just pinned Abe Assad. Wow. That's big in the team race.
141 pounds: No. 2 Beau Bartlett vs. No. 3 Brock Hardy, Nebraska
First period
Bartlett shoots in and a scramble ensues. It ends with a potentially dangerous call. Hardy slips in and has every chance for a takedown but Bartlett rolls through for a takedown. Wow. What a scramble and move by the Penn State junior. Impressive. He leads 2-0. Hardy is out to 2-1. Period ends there.
Second period
Hardy down first. He gets out to 2-2. Riding time not currently a factor. Bartlett is in on a single leg, Hardy counters on a single of his own, they scramble and roll through here but Hardy is able to convert into a double and takedown. He leads 4-2. Bartlett almost has a reversal in hand but Hardy readjust and fends it off. It's 4-2 after two.
Third
Bartlett down. Hardy has legs in and bellies Bartlett out. But Bartlett stands again, Bartlett rolls through, but Hardy stays with and keeps rolling him over. Bartlett is out to 4-3. Bartlett shoots and Hardy counters and takes him down to 6-3 late in the third. With riding time, it's a 7-3 win for Hardy.

Bartlett, svn, facundo need to watch some of our older wrestlers. They die when the going gets tough!
As our studs win, we'll get the advancement points and championship points that no one other than Lee and Woods can match. I still think 20-30 point win
Bartlett was aggressive right at the start with the challenged takedown. 10 seconds. After that he turtled up, and was not aggressive at all. Crazy.
I agree. Bartlett has never impressed me to be honest. Svn and Facundo seem to not have that killer instinct. Just my thoughts
Yes. We definitely need those 3 to wrestle better at Nationals or we’re not winning !!!! Other guys are not a guarantee…..They gotta step up much better.
. Hopefully Cael does what he does
Only go by this year where he lost once before tonight. He wasn't long enough for 149. He gave Nick Lee all he could handle and we know how good Lee was
