Continue to be impressed with Stanford's efforts in this tourney.
2026 NCAA Championship Session IV Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Agree. WTF did the ref give SVN a stall warning for on top? He was mauling him and the kid just started holding his arms and turtling up. Chicken sh*t call.
SVN will face Aden Valencia (Stanford) in the final
Not according to WrestleStat. SVN beat Henson in the Consi's in the 2023 NCAA Championships.
Very excited for Van Ness! Pin was there but that was an *** stomping semi match
Im starting to think Shane used the dual season and big 10 tourney as practice. Put himself in bad spots to work on some things because he looks like a completely different animal right now. Lol
I almost think Lamer stopped for a second expecting he'd hear the slap to the mat.
Lamer got the stall, SVN got the point to go up 15-1
No reason for JB to be factual when he said it with conviction.
PJ walking back and forth like a caged lion... I hope he comes out with a muzzle. He might eat his opponent.
I spot my drink out. Well done! Lol
Even if they catch you it will just be a slap on the wrist....
That's what I remember as well. Graham rooks come back, Ethan miller comeback, win over Henson, looked like he may take yianni out for a little.
Well the Ref took forever to get down on the mat so he could see his shoulder blades (or start his count). Really poor Officiating position imho - it was a pin, but the Ref failed to get to the correct side and down on the mat.
That for sure we agree on. There seems to be some things potentially happening on that end here. But its a discussion for another time. Bigger things happening now.
I thought he raised his arm with the green band (SVN). I went back and rewatched. You are correct. My mistake.
I swear we had a discussion about this earlier in the year. Largest point differential in a tech.
Shane is only wrestling like this since I shared his cell number with a concerned poster a few weeks ago.
Duke getting quite the workout pacing the mat, awaiting the TV ok to start.
Didn't realize Oklahoma State was a local school for a kid from Minnesota. I'm learning a lot from these ESPN announcers tonight.
