After takedowns, he would keep going for the takedowns. I actually thought that was a little ridiculous, because sometimes he would do things a full second after the whistle as Dustin was turning to go back to the center. Not sure if he should be lauded for aggressiveness or not.

We definitely saw a great specimen today in Brent Metcalf. I hope at NCAAs both of them are fully charged.
I listened to the match on radio, and to me it sounded like Metcalf was relentless and DS was limping and shutdown/gassed. All of a sudden I am reminded of the Brands/Fried series.

Lots of nothing to finish out 2nd. Luke down to start 3rd. Quick escape. Dretsch almost gets TD on edge but no pts.

Warning stalling against Luke. Luke in on leg attack but not in a position to TD. Stalemate, 38 seconds left...

It didn't really look like Schlatter was sucking wind, but he wasn't moving very quickly and definitely sluggish. At least that was how I saw it.

great comments by Steve Luke... seems like a pretty nice guy, talks about improving everything and says he thinks he can do pretty well at ncaas

Lots of circling, collar ties, pushing back and forth, and some handfighting. Pucillo pushing Todd around and out of bounds a few times. No serious TD threats by either
