I woke up this morning and looked at my Comcast Guide and saw the Big 10 Wrestling Championships @ 11am on the Big Ten Network. It says that it is Live and I just wanted to pass the message along to all you wrestling junkies to feed your wrestling monster.
So who saw it???? What did you think?? A lot of good action. Not a lot of 2-1, 3-2 matches. Did you see that Franklin Gomez, defending NCAA Champ at 133 got upset in the semis? What did you think of Metcalf losing the scramble at the end and giving up 5 to lose 9-3?
I think the score ending up being 9-3 with riding time. It was a very close match throughout. Metcalf had to work most of the first period just to finish one single-leg. Palmer rode of the second period with some brutal legs and came close to turning Metcalf. In the third, Metcalf got call for locking hands when he thought Palmer had gotten an escape, giving Palmer the lead. Palmer then gets a quick escape. A long scramble then ensues, ending late in the match with Palm on top and Metcalf on his back for three points.
