125 Qtr: #1 seed Luke Lilledahl vs. #8 seed Sheldon Seymour (Lehigh)
I'll use SS for Seymour
Per 1
Lots of ear-to-ear to start. Then SS working working the edge. SS gets a leg, Luke with a whizzer, and Luke gets the leg free. Stalemate with 1:44 left. Back to ear-to-ear, and hand/wrist fighting. SS sort of reaches, nothing. Luke with a bit of a throw-by, nothing. End
Per 2
SS takes bottom. S slowly works up, returned, hits a roll, and Luke stays with him. Then SS gets out at 30 sec, 0-1. SS shoots, but stalemate called with 1:15 left. Luke snaps the head down and reaches, but nothing. End RT @ 30 sec for Luke
Per 3
Luke takes bottom. Luke up, and out in 9 sec, 1-1. SS's strength and compact size seems to be frustrating Luke on his O. 1 min left. Luke shoots, but SS kicks away. Stopped for interlocking hands with @ 40 sec left. Luke in on a single, SS dives for the edge and does a split, and he's able to kick away but gets a stall call. Luke shoots again, but the buzzer sounds.
SV-1
Luke gets a single, gets behind, SS hits a roll when he hits the mat and grabs a leg, Luke working to get behind and free the leg, he's close, but then SS locks the leg, now SS trying to come up out the back, they are on the edge, and then OOB with 30 sec. Wow. Luke reaches, nothing. SS dives, nothing. Luke goes for an ankle pick but SS kicks away.
TB-1
SS takes bottom. SS works up and hits a roll, he is out in 11 sec. Luke shoots, but the buzzer sounds.
TB-2
Luke takes bottom. He's up, lifted, and they are OOB with 21 sec left. Luke hits a roll and tries to get a reversal, but SS locks a leg, and a stall call on SS for locking on the leg, makes it 2-2.Luke to his feet, but can get away, so SS wins on riding time (14 seconds).
Ugh
Luke will wrestle in the consolations
I'll use SS for Seymour

Luke will wrestle in the consolations
Almost a carbon copy of their bout in the dual, except Luke didn’t get the late TD he got in the dual and couldn’t finish his shot in OT.
Things like that happen when you are not aggressive, and let a guy hang around.
Luke is awesome. Give the other kid credit. Luke needs a little more strength. The lehigh kid was thicker and stronger. Luke was close but couldnt get his leg free etc in the first ot. He has a bright future
I don’t know how Luke didn’t get that TD in the 3rd. Spent 60 seconds on the edge. Unreal how Seymour fending that off. Luke spent so much energy there.
Let me know when Seymour begins to wrestle.
Man! Byrd owns Davis. Just dominates him. Davis usually can hang with or beat anyone, but not Byrd.
Davis needs a redshirt year to get stronger.
133 Qtr: #8 seed Braeden Davis vs. #1 seed Lucas Byrd (Illinois)
I'll use LB for Byrd
This is a tough matchup for Davis.
Per 1
After a bit, Byrd working an underhook, but a stalemate with 2:01 left. Byrd with a shot, Davis tried an elevator to counter, but Byrd with the TD, 0-3. After a bit, Davis gets flattened. Byrd working a tight waist. Davis works up, tries a roll, and is away, 1-3. End RT @ 1:33 for LB
Per 2
LB takes bottom. LB to a 3-point stance, then hits a shoulder roll and is out, 1-4. LB works in on a double and gets a TD and is exposed. It's 3+4 making it 1-11. Davis gets to his stomach, but he's got quite a deficit. End. RT @ 2:08 for LB
Per 3
Davis takes neutral. Stall warning on Davis about 1 minute in as LB drove in and Davis backed off the edge. RT is locked. Davis sort of shoots, nothing. End. With 2:08 in RT, it's a 1-12 MAJ for Lucas Byrd
Davis will drop into consolations

I dont know where davis wrestles in the future. He cant go down or up. Definitely needs a redshirt
Davis needs to stop rolling onto his back and he does not hold position well.
So I think I can do Bartlett's match, but will probably still be on that when Van Ness's match starts, so if someone can take SVN's match, that would be great.
Edit: as noted, they seem to be holding starting weight classes until all of the previous class are done, so I should be good for SVN's match.

@Tom McAndrew looks like they are holding the championship mats until all bouts at a weight are complete. So, that should help.
Finally a TD for a PSU wrestler today. BB with a re-attack go behind and after a funk roll-esque scramble BB is able to get the TD. He is up 4-1 in the second.
EDIT: Sorry 4-0. Now its the third Composto chose neutral.

After a scoreless first period, Penn State 141-pound senior Beau Bartlett took down to start the second. He escaped and then took down Penn's CJ Composoto for a 4-0 lead. Penn State has its first semifinalists as Bartlett wins 5-0 with a riding time point.
141 Qtr: #2 seed Beau Bartlett vs. #10 seed CJ Composto (Penn)
I'll use CJ for Composto
Per 1
Nothing thru 1st minute. Bartlett gets in and gets behind but they go OOB, with 1:28 left. End
Per 2
Beau takes bottom. He's up and out quickly, 1-0. Beau shoots, they scramble, CJ has a hold of a leg, but Beau frees it for the TD, 4-0. OOB with 42 sec left. Beau with a good ride. End. RT @ 1:08 for Beau
Per 3
CJ takes neutral. Beau being very defensive -- got to watch for stall calls. That said, not much thru 1 min. CJ keeps moving in, and Beau is happy to go ear-to-ear, and then when he gets tot he edge he spins back to the center. Stall warning on Beau. End. With 1:08 pin RT, it's a 5-0 DEC for Beau, and he's through to the Semis!
