Hidlay and Barr…

Lots of clubbing but not much in the way of real effective action…

First ends with Hidlay 1-0 off shot clock…

Hidlay in the clock second…

1-1 Barr on criteria…

Hidlay gets a go behind and they are in quad pod on the edge… ends up taking him over but only awarded 1 for step out…

Hidlay picks up another step out 3-1…

40 seconds left and Barr has Hidlay grounded in the edge but pushes him back and Hidlay goes up and then drops to his butt and they give Barr 2…

Brick…

TD taken off 3-2 Hidlay 36 secinds

Hidlay able to fight off Barr to make his first senior world team…

Barr bails from the official hand shake and draws lots of boos…

Snyder and Zilmer…

Zilmer with an arm spin for the go behind early…

2-0

Zilmer did not give up the go behind from front head…

Snyder ankle pick… 2-2

That’s the way the first ends… Snyder not pushing Zilmer around this match

Snyder level change and Zilmer fights it off for awhile but gives up TD and then adds a cheap. Ass tilt…

Picks up another TD 8-2…

Starting to get away from zilmer

That’s how it ends…

Snyder makes another team… he has been our senior rep since 2015…

JB brings up a decent point… snyder’s new upright style might be a conscious style change to combat the taller guys who he has not had an answer for internationally…

Clearly his recent actions have tainted his shine, but, good for him on showing up and doing the damn thing… weak ass weight class domestically, but, still got to wrestle…

LFG

Damn…

Lee putting hands n him…

6-0 Lee from go behind and turn… then non controlled pancake…

6-0 at the break…

Lill can’t get through lees head hands at all…

I would have liked to see Lill try something else… losing 6-0 is no different to 10-0

That’s why you never stop wrestling. Yianni was in complete control. Then, he wasn’t. As Burroughs said, I think he conceded the match as soon as he went down.

Damn, Lee.

Rolling pancake to exposure for Lee too. 6-0.

Good for Lee…

Was really hoping my guy Lill would have something more, but, Lill only 19…

Lilledahl is an animal. But there is a strength and power difference with the 7 year age gap.

Just noticed his singlet is loose around his thighs. Could be by design, but I don’t know.

I know he’s got that skinny-strong physique that some of the best technical guys have, but I’m really excited to see how much he’s gonna improve as he gets his man strength in the next couple of years. Sky’s the limit.

He is a hammer, but, the age gap is real…

Otto getting smashed by nutter 2 straight same deal…

If you are going to stand and bang strength is a skill…

While I got a minute waiting for match 3…

Overall I have been fairly impressed with how much JB has improved in the mic…

But his propagating the Iowa training too hard and everyone of them in a brace is lame…

It is just one of those BS things that get into the lexicon and people can’t shake it because it’s easy to pile on…

Otto was in that room everyday for 5 months and never even was sore one day from training…

Anyway…

Soapbox put away…
