Finish the cradle Tate

 

[303cowboy]

Hastings will face De Re Riva from NDSU in wrestlebacks

A wrestler he knows well. Hayden is 2-1 against him this year

 

[Vapoke]

Tate took zero shots. Stop wrestling so tight

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Disappointing loss for Samuelson against Ness. I really didn’t see much from Tate that match. 8-2

 

[WestWYOPoke]

Andrews is the last Poke to wrestle this round, should be in the hole soon.

Mat 7.

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Andrews and Nevills scorless after 1.

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Andrews escapes and is up 1-0 after 2. Nevills will go down for the 3rd.

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Nevills escapes and it is 1-1 in the third....Andrews with the takedown!! Nevills on his back!

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Huge win!! Andrews 7-2!!

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Huge win!! Andrews 7-2!!

Correction, 9-2 they gave Andrews the takedown at the end.

 

[Vapoke]

Brian with the tilt was awesome.

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Overall, have to be happy with the first round. Would have been nice for Verner to hold on but the Pokes advance 4 to the round of 16 (Bridges, Turner, Ashworth, Andrews).

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Pokes to face the Big 10 in round #2. All of them as underdogs by seed but all except maybe Steveson very winnable for the Pokes.

Bridges-Pletcher (OSU)
Turner-McKee (MN)
Ashworth-White (NEB)
Andrews-Steveson (MN)

 

[Vapoke]

Ashworth beat White this year. If Ashworth wrestle loose then he will beat White. Cole, Hayden, and Tate just need to win next match to gain some confidence back far from out of it.

1st Round Consols:

125- Verner - Punke (MIZZ)...dont know anything about Punke but he has a losing record. Verner must win.
174-Hastings v. De La Riva (NDSU) ...Hastings is the better wrestler. Let's not have a repeat of the Big 12s. Hastings must win.
184-Samuelson v. Parker (Princeton)...don't know anything about Parker but he is from Princeton and has a #31 seed. Samuelson must win.

 

[OrediggerPoke]

Bridges will be on Mat 5.

 

[Vapoke]

We won't see the consi's for a hot minute.
