Ward with about 50 seconds of riding time before he lets Smith out.

 

[TedKumsher]

So far Ward is holding his own. No scoring 1st period. Ward rode Smith for 50 seconds before giving up the escape.

 

[TedKumsher]

'Course then he gets a stall warning.

Ward out fast. 1-1 3rd period. Ward has about a 42 second riding time advantage.

 

[d4nim4l]

Damn. Smith with the takedown after an escape by Ward. 3-1 Smith.

 

[TedKumsher]

And he gives up the takedown.

 

[d4nim4l]

Apparently that happened with 6 seconds left too.

3-1 Dec for Smith.

 

[Wallacelantz]

Thats too bad, but good effort

 

[Clones85']

W? 6 sec left

Well, it's totally irrelevant at this point in the tournament. We're doing great -- though I don't know what other teams are doing. So far everyone has advanced (of the 7 to wrestle so far), and 4 earned bonus points (Reader major, Sanderson fall, Clark/Fan. T. fall).

Other than more bonus points, you can't do much better than that. Over half the points are scored in the final couple of rounds, though.

Clark won by major but its still bonus

I believe the team score through 174 is this:
ISU 18
Ohio St 13
Iowa 11

But like another pointed out half the team points will come in tomorrows rounds, those will make or break a team.

#4 Tsirtsis won't score another point for Iowa
Neither will their 157lber who didn't qualify

 

[Clonehomer]

#4 Tsirtsis won't score another point for Iowa
Neither will their 157lber who didn't qualify

I wouldn't count on Tsirtsis. Wrestlebacks are where Iowa traditionally gets a lot of bonus points.

 

[d4nim4l]

Foster of Ok St beats Beatty of Iowa at 197, 8-5.

 

[Cyclone06]

#4 Tsirtsis won't score another point for Iowa
Neither will their 157lber who didn't qualify

No team points scored in the consolations? I did not know that.

 

[cyco2000]

Maybe he's predicting a 2 and out for Tsirtsis

 

[Wallacelantz]

Varner 2-0

 

[hawkeyescott]

No team points scored in the consolations? I did not know that.

Yes they score team points in the consolations, I think he meant that Tsiritis would get beat in his next match and not score at all for Iowa.

I don't think he will but if he does come back and get 3rd that is a ton of points he could rake up.

ISU has 19.5 points through 174.
