141 Semifinal: #2 seed Beau Bartlett vs. #3 seed Jesse Mendez (Ohio St.)
I'll use JM for Mendez
A repeat of last year's Championship match
Per 1
Beau whist an early shot but can't quite get behind, so nothing. Stoppage with 1:37 left -- it appears JM got an eye poke. JM sort of shoots, blocked. Beau working underhooks, stalemate with 53 sec left. Ear-to-ear with 30 sec left. End
Per 2
Beau takes bottom. Beau works up, then to his feet, and he's out in 7 sec, 1-0. JM in on a leg for a bit but nothing. JM shoots from way out, blocked. Beau working underhooks again, and a stalemate with 25 sec left. End. RT @ 7 sec for JM
Per 3
JM takes bottom. JM works up, and he's out in 7 sec, 1-1. 1 min left, and no shots this period. Beau shoots, blocked. JM shoots off an underhook, Beau with a whizzer, Beau to a split, they scramble, and the buzzer sounds. Ohio State throws a brick. In real time, I don't think JM got a TD, though I thought he got pretty close. Call is confirmed.
SV-1
Beau hasn't been close to a TD since the 1st period. He needs to change that dynamic. Beau shoots, blocked. Under 1 left. JM shoots, nothing. OOB with 34 sec left. Blood time for JM. Stoppage with 16 sec left as JM's headgear comes undone. They need new headgear, which takes some time to get adjusted. Beau shoots, nothing. End
TB-1
JM takes bottom. Optional start by Beau, but he works him OOB with 25 sec left. JM with a roll, to his feet, lifted, and OOB with 16 sec left. Optional start by Beau, JM to his feet, hits a roll as they go OOB with 8 sec left. Optional start by Beau, JM with a roll, and he gets out with 3 sec left, 1-2
TB-2
Beau takes bottom. Beau to his feet, lifted, returned,d to his feet, and OOB with 23 sec left. Beau to his feet, and OOB with 9 sec left. Beau has to get out within 6 sec. Beau with a roll, but JM holds on to the leg. End. JM wins 2-1
Bartlett will wrestle in the Consolations
