Didn't see the match, but looks like Johnson with a nice MD for 3rd over Zach Price.Redding and Degen both champs. Both looked real solid today. Stotts over Kraisser for 3rd. 165 is going to be a mess this year
Robb beat Austin O'Connor handily last week. O'Connor is the defending 149 national champion. This was a very good win for David today.Robb is tough and a big 157. I need to see it in March from Robb before I think he’s a true title threat. He’s never been able to hold 157 real effectively for a full year (missed weight a few times in ‘20. If he’s put those issues behind him he’s a tough out.
How had the Cuban looked other than when he got caught?Cyclones win a bevy of semi-consolation matches so will be wrestling for 3rd at
133 (Attasauov)
149 (Johnson)
165 (Stotts and Kraisser) and
197 (Bastida) (who smoked his opponent)
Fisher will probably lose to Venz and then will be in 5th pl match.

2 takedowns & an escape I thinkHow did Robb get his points?
I didn't get to see the match. From the scoreboard, he had a 5-3 lead in the 3rd before losing the TD and getting pinned at 6:44.How had the Cuban looked other than when he got caught?
Wow. When was the last time he’s gotten taken down twice in a match?2 takedowns & an escape I think
Man, any time he gets riding time, I’ll take it.I didn't get to see the match. From the scoreboard, he had a 5-3 lead in the 3rd before losing the TD and getting pinned at 6:44.
The other three matches today were huge wins: two techs and a major. He actually had a riding time point in one. Not sure how good the competition was, however,
Joel wrestled pretty well I thought. Labriola scored off if Joel's shot but he stayed in the fight. He might surprise us this year at 174 if he can manage his weight.Joel loses 3-2 to Labriola
Not too bad. He has an awesome fireman. Seemed a little winded in the 3rd place match, but he totally overmatched they guy. Really good on his feet.How had the Cuban looked other than when he got caught?
