Idk how many times I’ve seen Desanto’s best takedowns appear too late in a match..

valencia came from behind to beat woods 5-4 and into the semis at 65kg… mckenna up big on crook early…

i am still a little sore about desanto giving up on greco after only about a month…

he just has not evolved any dynamic attack in free and i don’t think he will ever make a team in free…

dake looks thicky thicc at 86kg…

gets a chest wrap on jersey robb and gets caught on his back but they white paddle the 2 and just award the reversal… 2-1

dake adds a step out on an under…

dake pushing robb all over the mat for another sterp out…

4-1

that is how it ends at the break…

robb is a redshirt fre4shmen at okie state… not a punk by any means but not at dake’s level…

dake gets to quick snatch single and almost goes dake bomb but robb scrambles out of it but goes staright back and then grounds himself for another step out and a fleeing and 1…

robb dives in on a wing and prayer and dake stuffs for go behind and a couple of weak guts and that is the final 12-1…

dake could definitely stand to put on more size but he didn’t look silly small at 86kg like he did 8 years ago…

my guy Endene up in a few against someone i am unfamiliar with…

Endene gets dropped by Laird 7-3…

US Open a little different level than pan ams…

he still looked way more athletic than most…

i’m pretty sure i read he did not start wrestling till half way through HS, so, there is a much higher ceiling once he gets in Iowa’s room…

davino got in on a single with a quickness and crazy fast transition to lace… fix fought the lace hard but after a couple of turns something popped in that knee…

did not look good at all… heavy limp off the mat…
