Sunkist Open: Freestyle Finals Match Ups

JensenS · 10-25-2009, 01:47 PM

55 KG: Sam Hazewinkel v. Mark McKnight, Andrew Long (beat Donahoe) v. Obe Blanc
60 KG: Coleman Scott v. Derek Moore, Matt Valenti v. Nate Gallick
66 KG: Jared Frayer v. Will Rowe, Corey Jantzen v. Teyon Ware
74 KG: Jon Reader v. Bekzod Abdurakhmanov, Mike Poeta v. Kyle DeBerry
84 KG: Ben Askren v. Keith Gavin, Chris Pendleton v. Raymond Jordan
96 KG: Round Robin, so none
120 KG: Blake Gillis v. David Zabriskie, Kenyon Walsh (beat Dudziak) v. Aaron Anspach

Be really interested if we could get Askren v. Pendleton round whatever in the 84 kilo finals.

Great matches going on right now, along with insightful commentary and play-by-play by Zeke Jones, and I think Jason Bryant. Broadcast live on themat http://www.themat.com/events/default...&EventID=21814.

Askren beat Gavin in a really good semi-final match, Askren scoring a ton of points on top.

Corey Janzen apparently tossed and pinned Olympian Heinrich Barnes, then hurt his knee vs Ware and defaulted.

Pendleton won his semi as well.

Ughh.. as soon as there's a clinch the announcers need to make a thousand ball jokes. There's also some conspiracy theory discussion about the lack of "ball grabs" won by the US.

Finals Match Ups
55: Sam Hazewinkel v. Obe Blanc
60: Coleman Scott v. Nate Gallick
66: Jared Frayer v. Teyon Ware
74: Jon Reader v. Mike Poeta
84: Ben Askren v. Chris Pendleton
120: Blake Gillis v. Aaron Anspach

Really excited to see the matches at 60, 74, and 84.

At 60 to see if Scott can continue his rise at that weight that he's been on this year by knocking off Gallick, 74 because it should be high scoring given the nature of both guy's style, and then 84 because of the participants.

The ball jokes are going to be there no matter who does it ... in this case, it was Zeke and I. That's one rule that does need to be changed. Let the wrestlers decide, not the draw from the official.

So the wrestlers should Rock Paper Scissors for it. On a 1-2-3 shoot. Not to be confused with the European start of 1-2-shoot.
