U20 Pan Am

[Pennstate1985]

Match 1

Lockett against ECUADOR from the PSU board (poster zzs006)

Lockett hits a double, picks the kid up and drives him off the mat for 4 but they go into the table and kill the stream! Huge 4 but he finished it like 8 feet off the mat

After about a 5 min delay to fix things the match is back on. Lockett finishes it off quickly with a 10-0 tech

Lockett with a td in :04.
A disappearing duck makes it 4-0.
Double leg 6-0
One last td and gut to finish it 10-0 in 1:04

 

[Pennstate1985]

4 TDs in a minute is impressive.

Extremely

I watched most of this tournament and we crowned champions at every weight and won finals by fall or tech fall in every match. Lockett had 3 tech falls and his finals match ended in 1:06 I believe. Lilledahl, Bassett, Duke, Ryder, Mirasola, Sinclair, McDaniel and Sahakian all won by fall or tech in the finals. I may have missed 1-2 matches but I believe we gave up a pushout by Bassett and a takedown of Sahakian at 285 and these were the only three offensive points scored against the U.S. team.

Tying up & breaking, both fake shots

USA team won all Gold medals. Impressive showing. I believe only one USA match went to second period. We look strong internationally for years to come. I know Pan Ams is fairly weak, but this was still a dominant showing.

Correct. Stunning wrestling across the board. To give up 3 points total in 30+ matches is incredible under any circumstances.

Ryder and Sahakian both had one go into the second I believe. Sahakian was the only one who had one go the distance

You are correct.

In total, the USA team gave up 11 points in some 40 odd matches. 9 by Sahakian and two by Bassett. The other 8 guys blanked their opponents.

 

[AtownPoke]

We gave up 10 points total and Sahakian gave up 9 of those. Other than that the only point given up was a push out on Bo

Someone said Bo gave up 2 pushouts but still, an incredible outing. I thought it was 10 as well. Maybe a pushout when he pinned the guy?

I must have missed it, I don’t see anyone from Cuba

I know USA has a lot on their plate but we should probably invest more in youth wrestling, North and South of the boarder, it would increase our competition and increase the value of the Pan Am tournament. At this point, it’s a light spar and our top competitors won’t attend for long.

Cuba now has China military bases, so they are now part of Asia.

I was thinking the same thing. This was hardly a workout for the distance traveled. This team has another 10-12 years on the world stage. I'm excited. Connor Mirasola got OW, but PJ Duke is a silent assassin out there.
