Teske beats Shakur Laney of Ohio who was 2-2 at NCAA’s 2 years ago 

Laney lost 1-0 to Darian Cruz the NCAA Championship that year. Pretty tough kid if you ask me.

[Gilgamesh 11]

Thank you, Plasmodium. May I call you Plas?

[Plasmodium 1,576]

You can call me anything, just don't call me late for dinner :)

also, only two socon guys in quarters.  I would bet they will get guys on the podium 

[Gilgamesh 11]

LOVE the Socon but kind of feel its a conference that teams want to leave when they think they're good. Looking at you, SIUE. Campbell did finish top 11 w/ 3 placers... at Midlands. Good for thrmem, but.. ..

[Gilgamesh 11]

And for clarity, I DO write a column as "The Scribe", but I am neither bitter nor the Scribe posting previously. Plas, make it to SA at the BBQ restaurant I work at and the Mixed Platter is on me.

South Africa?

Think he meant South America ... or maybe Southern Australia?

[TBar1977 3,763]

Perhaps San Antonio, a place well known for good BBQ.

Well I had some good bbq just south of Austin last week, so ...

[swoopdown 446]

RBY only wins 4-3.  He had the flu once when he was in the 7th grade so that's probably explains why.

Made me lol .... Really, not rhetorical lol

Dude's name is Gilgamesh, so SA obviously refers to Southern Akkadia.  I think we should call him Gil.

[Plasmodium 1,576]

Gilgamesh is Mesopotamian.  The plot thickens.

Jason Bryant right now

I defended CP on Twitter regarding the Teasdale thing, so there's my good deed for the day. As far as the term, hey, some people must really like to draw in the crossover crowd from bowling and pro wrestling. They can say it all they want, doesn't make it correct. Just nice to know they think about me so much when calling these bouts and writing their stories. It's comical now, so I get a good laugh out of it.

Saw that. He's a top notch wrestler. PSU guys will need to really bring it when he gets on the mat with them, which I predict will probably happen. 

I hope we see Cassar vs white. It will give us a little bit more info about what Cassar vs Gable might look like

I am a big supporter of your work Jason. Ignore the knuckleheads.

Gomez pulls it out, 16-15

Everyone should go watch this match. Gomez is so mentally tough. Crazy match

[gowrestle 633]

What are team scores at this point?

We can also use their matches against Jordan Wood. I think Gable beat Wood 9-4 recently.

There is room for only ONE scribe 'round here.

Very possible. I hope he doesn’t because I really want to see white vs Cassar

For sure. The more we have the better.

RULE XIV.

Pin Falls

1. Pin falls only shall count. (Flying or rolling falls shall not be considered.)  Any part of both shoulders held in contact with the mat for an appreciable length of time constitutes a fall. (By an "appreciable length of time" is meant for the Referee's silent count of three seconds.)

- From the first NCAA Official Intercollegiate Wrestling Rulebook (1928)

[JasonBryant 1,656]

Yup. It existed way back then. It hasn’t been in the rulebook for decades and when pro wrestling rose to prominence, the term went with it. There’s a number of terms we don’t use anymore in sports, that’s just one of them.

evidently the rule contradicts itself, perhaps why all knowledgeable wrestling fans now call it a "fall" as indicated above or a simple "pin."  Theres really no reason to be redundant or speak with a repetitive stutter.  ;)  :)
