Is "Valencia Gom A." up at 86kg Anthony Valencia?  Can't tell with the beard...

Yes, it's him.  He looks bad so far after being down 8-0 ... but rallies with a pin.  

Dylan Palacio (now of Uruguay and former folkstyle wrestler) looked terrible at 74 KG.  He lost 12-2 to a guy from Brazil.  He didn't do much and kind of appeared lost on the mat.

RBY took care of business quickly in his first match.

The big upcoming match in the quarters is Nick Lee vs. Austin Gomez.  Winner goes to semis and very likely the finals for an Olympic berth. 

Lee wrestled Gomez at Worlds last year and pinned him after leading ... something like 7-3 but Gomez was and is dangerous.   Lee can go upper body however and has some length on Gomez, which helps.  Below is a link to their match at Worlds if you can access it:

Alvan from Brazil is a Brazilian-American who wrestles for Columbia (the Ivy, not the country.) NCAA qualifier.

I believe he trains at same club as Chamizo etc.
