Nope, they've taken enough money from me and given me crap in return. I'd still rather give someone else money to watch when they aren't watching. That's how much I hate Flo, they do more to stop people from watching than they do to grow the sport.

Plott in the hole on mat 1.

Plott with a nice counter for TD. Quick TD off whistle after that. Can't get anything on top. Another counter for TD, paddled for a step out actually. Restarts to a quick TD, finally gets wrapped around him and rolls him twice. 11-0.

Amine on deck on mat 1. Dean on deck on mat 9.

Dean wins 10-0. Just too smooth. Really like watching him wrestle. I guess I switched screens too soon and they reversed a call to make it 9-2. Dean scores to make it 11-2. Opponent jumps over him to get a nice funky 2 and then drives him back for 2 more. 11-6 now. 1 min left. Dean gets warned for passivity. Doesn't matter at this point though. Controls center, making opponent do something and he isnt. Opponent with a really nice duck under type move with short time to make it 11-8 Dean. Weird match but a win.

Amine with a TD and nice gut wrench for 4 more. Nice offense for him! See if he can close it out now rather than just hand fight for 5 minutes.

Freestyle is so weird lol. Matches over fast, no rules about where they restart, stalemates in zero seconds flat, shot clock is a mystery every time

Cody Merrill on Mat 4 now.

Cody with a nice front headlock and exposure to start it off. Somehow I missed his second one. 5-0 at the break. Cody doing a really good job of keeping pressure on, but you can tell he has slowed way down. Woodley starts to push the pace but Merrill fights off without major issue. 5-0 Cody.

Jax in the hole on mat 2. Coby Merrill v Cole Mirasola on deck on Mat 8 could be interesting one.

Coby pushing Cole around. Up 4-0 early. Woah. Another push out. 5-0. Works him to edge and drops down and either gets TD or push out each time. 6-0 now and that one forces Cole into par terre. Coby goes for a gut and gets 4 for the 11-0 butt whooping.

Jax on mat 2 now.

Nice duck under leads to scramble and Jax comes out on top. Cannot get to a gut. 2-0. Counters to a leg and gets another. This time tries to work through the crotch but cannot lift him. 4-0. He needs a hair cut, keeps having to move his hair out of his eyes. Nice slide by but cannot hold him. Shoots to a leg and works around for 2 more. 6-0. was on the boundary so goes to par terre. He gets two exposures for the 10-0 win.

Bo Basett v Aden Valencia on deck on mat 1. Could be a good one. Hardy v Mendez on mat 3 now.

Valencia started up 4-0, then Bo poked him hard in the eye (on accident) and it's been downhill from there. 7-4 now Bo. 9-4 Bo. Valencia gets to a leg and drops him backwards for 4 then rolls him for another 2! 10-9 as they go off. Wow. 27 sec left. Bo gets a TD with 9 to go for the win. Fun match. Bo was better and went and got it.

Amine on deck on mat 4 against Carr....

Serious hand fighting in this one. Amine gets a nice step out. 1-0. Now Carr goes on the clock. Nice double leg but Amine defends. Amine just such a strong stance and doesn't give much chance. 2-0 now. Amine snaps down into a single and runs Carr off, almost 2. 3-0 at the break. Carr shoots and Amine tries a front headlock that was never there and allows Carr to go behind. 3-2. Amine with a nice single leg off the whistle. Carr spins out though and grabs a leg for stalemate. Great shot and sucks to not convert that one. Double from Carr, not there. Carr shoots and Amine with a nice counter but only gets a step out. Again missed opportunity off a great move. 4-2 Amine. 1:20 left. Carr throwing some flurries but Amine holds it off. 45 left. Deep shot from Carr there. Amine warned but 25 left. Carr tries a duck and Amine catches it. Carr with a deep duck but Amine drives it through for his own 2. Carr reverses it for a final of 6-3!!!!!! Woah

COWBOY RTC LETS GO

Melvin Miller v Caleb Henson. VT future.

Miller with a push out to start us off. 1-0. Woah miller with a slick single for 2. Almost gets a gut but cant elevate. 3-0. Caleb gets in deep and Miller drapes over the top and somehow prevents a TD. Solid D right there. 3-0 still. Switching over to Amine even though this is a better match probably haha.

If Coby Merrill can do this to Cole Mirasola, I’m sure Ross can do better.
Maybe it would be different this year. Mirasola did beat Ross 7-5 at last year's US Open, as well as 4-1 and 5-2 in the finals of the U20 WTT last May. Merrill's size seemed to be a big problem for Mirasola where it hasn't been as big of a problem for Ross.

Agreed on Jax needing to cut the shaggy! He had about 50 hair adjustments in the national finals match with Davino! 🤣🤣

That maybe the case. Ross is bigger, wiser and will be wrestling with Wyatt and Doucet. No one in PSU room close to their ability. I expect a Ross win.

Dang. I know this is really soon after NCAAs. But I hope Cody learns more offense this offseason. He can’t get by with his current offensive abilities.
He has DT who is close to his weight to spar with. He needs to do more on offense.
