Well mixed results on the back half. Amine didn't do much until the 3rd period where he had 2 takedowns and a stalling point and got a major. Hamiti was outstanding with domination and then got a quick pin putting his opponent on his back for 1 second. Plott wrestled unbelievably sloppy shooting and losing a leg, foot or ankle over and over again. Poor match by Plott but wins.. Surber wrestled out of control and sloppy also. But he did win. Hendrickson was great with lots of takedowns and got the pin with a Johny Thompson move. Easy win but not impressive.Great match by Spratley getting a takedown near the end of the 3rd period and riding out for overtime. Then gets a go around for a great win. Clutch takedowns at the end of the 3rd period for each of his wins. Witcraft had a solid win. Jamison asleep at the beginning of the match and looked poor the whole 1st period. But gets a takedown late in the 3rd and then in overtime for the win. Ho showed no signs in over time of being wore down by his cut. Young was really disappointing in being asleep in the first period. He did not finish takedowns and gave up takedowns off his shots or off his opponent's shots. Sheets battled but lost in overtime off a weak shot. Too many wrestlers did not seem ready to wrestle in the 1st period. Our strength is in the upper weights. I liked Spratley and Witcraft not so much anyone else. I can't complain about Cutter Sheets he was small.
Announced crowd not even half full ... dissapointing. Utah V was close to this.Idk what you’re seeing this is a good crowd imo
O’Brien fell for one of the classic blunders
1. Never get involved in a land war in Asia
2. Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line.
3. Never go upper body with Witcraft.
I wouldn’t say lethargic but wrestling like he’s trying to figure something out he doesn’t trust.Alright so what is up with Plott? He’s looked lethargic in all of his matches this season, regardless of results. Seems like something is up. Am I crazy?
