COMPLETE: NCAA wrestling championships...winner Oregon State

[alaskanassassin]

Penn State jumps to 5th!! We had the 2nd fewest number of wrestlers entering the tourney too!

Ohio's rascally Bobcat mascot was at it again this week, charging the mats at the championship tournament and taking on all opposing furballs. While his showing didn't count in the official standings it did seem to put a charge into dustin800 and Nate the Great, who have moved to the top of the leader board, overtaking Iowa State by a half-point. Can't get any closer than that. The upcoming placing matches will carry a lot of importance as a handful of teams continue in the team title chase.

Team standings have been updated through today's results...I will update them again, along with brackets over the weekend.

Won my consolation round game in 6 rounds.

Game 7750293

[flexmaster33]

Iowa State has regained its lead, charging ahead of Ohio by four points in the latest installment. Other contenders Purdue, Oregon State and Fullerton State will need to pick up some key rounds in the next few rounds to stay in the chase.

All brackets have been updcated, too and any current matchups are going out momentarily.

[flexmaster33]

Oreogn State and Purdue pick up a few consolation wins to narrow the gap with the leaders. team scores updated.

First round pin for ISU.

Game 7750186

[kratos644]

Another tech in the 184 consolation for me

[flexmaster33]

Scoreboard is updated...Fullerton State has put itself into the title mix, and don't sleep on Cornell which has a tourney-high five wrestlers still in championship brackets for some potential big points.

[flexmaster33]

Scoreboard updated...fresh games going out.

[chiefsfan4ever]

I just won Game 7769569

[flexmaster33]

Iowa State has picked up a few key wins to extend to an 11 point lead in the latest standings update...I've also updated each of the consolation bracket links (since that's where most of the recent action has been), and have added a breakdown of placing bout matchups per weight class...this can be found under the scoreboard, and will be updated as wrestlers are slotted into spots for the final set of matches.

[chiefsfan4ever]

Won another game.

Game 7779213

[flexmaster33]

Scoreboard is updated and Iowa State has grown a 14-point lead, although fresh maps were just sent out late tonight so that gap could shrink back down again

[flexmaster33]

Iowa State is clinging to a 7-point lead over Oregon State...fresh bouts sent out where needed...we should be filling up the placing-bout sheets this week and getting the final phase of this tourney underway perhaps as early as the weekend. Good luck, all.

[flexmaster33]

We have a new team leader with Oregon State charging to the front of the pack by 6 1/2 points thanks in large part to dcc1220 with a series of big semifinal wins. Go Beavers!!!

[chiefsfan4ever]

We'll chip back into that lead with this win Game 7829756

[flexmaster33]

Scoreboard and placing slots are updated...I'm hoping to start 7th-place matches early in the week, most consolation brackets are in the final stages.

[chiefsfan4ever]

Another game finished.


Game 7850800

[kratos644]

I advance to the 3rd place bout in 149

[flexmaster33]

Iowa State trims the gap to four points on leading Oregon State in what should be a wild finish in the placing bouts.

Three of the 10 weight classes are now ready for placing 141, 149 and 184...I'll wait a few more days for some more to get loaded up, then we'll start off on those 7th place bouts, and start working up the ladder to the championship matches.

[flexmaster33]

All right...time to get this tourney wrapped up...so placing matches are going out this week...

7th place bouts are out this morning
5th place will go out Tuesday morning
3rd place will go out Wednesday morning
Championship bouts go out Thursday morning...

hoping to stagger them a bit, to build up to the big title bouts which carry the most weight.

Scoreboard and placing matchups are updated...(blue headers mark weight classes where placing bouts are set).

Most placing bouts are ready to go, but a few are still awaiting qualifiers...those will be sent ASAP once those brackets get caught up to speed.
