PSU - Lehigh Dual Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
To clarify, before the bow and arrow pin, Max tilted for 4 but was pretty flat on his back. Ref was on other side though.
Claw with 1 RT, up 2-1, with a minute to go in the first
Claw with another TD, up 4-1 headed to 2nd 1:32 in rt
Lehigh takes down, Claw going for far side cradle, can't get it, stalling on Lehigh.
Stall on Claw........rides out period, Claw to take neutral
Claw with TD, coaches want TB to cut, finally cuts him with :40 to go.
7-1 Claw, nice win. Better listen to the coaches when they tell you to cut the guy.

157 and 165 are going to be very tough to overcome against the better competition. Blame our admission for not having Wick for 165. Huge hurt piece to our team. Yet gets into Cal poly. What a freaking joke. Cael’s still pissed. Oh well our better guys must be bonus machines. Some help at 125 should be coming in a couple weeks.
Watch the ref follow it all the way as he gives 2. Negron has control but just didn't get his head out. I still think it's 2 (unless it was Negron who was under, then it's not 2
)
With the exception of Max Dean, the current stars of the Penn State team have a tough time turning opponents. Compare RBY, Nick, Carter and Aaron to Retherford, Nolf,, Hall, and Nickal. Before that there were Taylor,, Wright and Ruth. All of those previous champs turned most of their opponents. As great as they are, the current group does not have the mat skills of previous champions.
His poor officiating is not a political issue. He was also the ref when Jason Nolf's knee was injured against Rutgers.
Negron was impressive. Nearly beat the #10 ranked wrestler. Hope he gets more opportunities to earn the spot.
You could see, early in the match, that he had a confidence about himself. He had a mat presence that spoke well.
Cael will have to seed the 157# wrestle-offs. Negron looked good today.
Any idea when he'll stop being referred to as "Gabe"?
Nick Lee has had his share of pins and turning guys. He hasn't looked then same the last 2 matches this weekend due to recovering from the flu.
The calls were obviously very close real time - but I think personally they got them right after reviewing. All of them. Full disclosure I went to Lehigh undergrad and PSU for grad. I think Rivera is a solid ref, not perfect but I haven't seen one of those yet.
I don't agree with you. After watching those shrugs and a finger touching the mat for a split second in the NCAA championships (Censo/Imar) and the Stieber/Oliver decisions...

So I shared this with a college wrestling ref. His take: the angle in the video doesn't show Negron's right arm. If his right arm is around the waist of Humphreys, then it's a TD. If the right arm isn't around the waist, then it's not a TD.
Does anyone have the reverse angle? This could be like the Zapruder film for PSU wrestling. Please all, stop what you’re doing and find the video!
Str8dblz reports that at this time Nick Lee is still the starter.
Not true.
- At PSWC social Cody replied "We have options." after being asked "Beard at heavyweight?"
- Eddie Smith was introduced.
- Beard was warming up in view during 197 match. (Smith nowhere in sight.)
- Cael said in the post dual presser that Beard would've wrestled 285 if that bout mattered and Michael was ready to go.
