Looking ahead:

Davis's 5th place match should be easy to cover

The 3rd place matches will be a mess. I'll go with the 1st that starts (should be Luke), and hope @GregPickel and others can cover some of the others. Whenever Luke's match is over, I'll jump onto the next match to start.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Braeden Davis is on deck on Mat 4

Going to be chasing interviews as these guys come off the mat, Tom. Sorry.

Tgar just threw up in his mouth, and, all over the carpet……

 

[ElDuce]

Seymour getting majored by Vantresca. What could have been......

 

[Pennstater55]

Well done, Braedan!

 

[ElDuce]

Davis! Great season

 

[cb1994]

DAVIS WHERE DID THAT COME FROM???? WOW

 

[Psuproud]

Davis keeps the shot at the record alive

 

[OhioLion]

Apologies as I can’t get rid of the quote.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

133 5th Place Match: #8 seed Braeden Davis vs. #6 seed Connor McGonagle (VT)

I'll use CM for McGonagle

Per 1
Davis sort of tries some cement, but CM rolls with him. Stalemate. Davis shoots and gets a leg, puts CM in the Danger position, and Davis gets the TD, 3-0. 1 min left. CM to his feet, and he's out, 3-1. Davis in on a shot, CM goes over the shoulders, they scramble, and Davis with the PIN!!!! 2:33 the time of the pin!!!

Braeden Davis takes 5th Place!!!!!

 

[Lionville]

What a joke.

 

[psufan07]

Really happy for Davis!

 

[SurgeOne bOne]

Davis- wow!!! What a show! He went for it and stuck it! I hit the roof and scared the wife and dog.

Unfortunately we're 0-1 on interviews as Davis did not come to the mix zone for an interview but instead dipped right to the locker room. Hopefully better luck with the third place match participants!

So fvcking stupid.

 

[BlueAndWhite86]

Consider it a success when a wrestler ends a tournament higher ranked than he entered. Congrats to Davis for a successful season. It only gets better from here.

 

[KJB32812]

Win all matches and get 3.5 bonus to tie and 4 to beat the record.

I don't think that's correct. I think we would have needed to go 9/9 to beat it, but could be wrong. Kerk MFF was a tough one...four points.dofferencd in 3d, correct?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Going to be chasing interviews as these guys come off the mat, Tom. Sorry.

so hopefully a few of you can step up during the 3rd place matches, to provide some coverage. I'll start with Luke, and when he's done I'll hold off until the next match involving a PSUer starts, and then go with that, etc.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

the sales pitches don't waste time getting out there. smh

Maybe, I was basing it off if everyone just wrestled to seed so I am not as confident in my math as I was
