Sometimes I think they want to fail.

Richards by tech over Costa Rica, 14-1. 

[SocraTease]

Zane Richards with the tech, 14-1. He was up 10-0; not sure why they continued action with the guy's reversal for 1.

Don't they always continue action by rule?

RBY hasn't wrestled his quarterfinal match yet and they are skipping around in weights.  

[Tripnsweep]

Hanna from the Bahamas, and also of Campbell U looking like a winner here. Challenge by his opponent but nothing to really challenge.

WTF was that? 16 straight points?!?

McNeil makes a quick one over Kramer 12-1.

Destribats down 9-0 makes a comeback effort that falls short and loses 10-6 to Cuba.

RBY up now. Mat A

Chaos reigns supreme. Told y'all it should have been Yianni.

[Tripnsweep]

RBY in an early 4-0 hole. Comes back with a takedown and a Simmons turn. Venezuela almost passed away and is back to wrestling. 

[Tripnsweep]

RBY with a 10-6 win. Chippy match. Venezuela had a couple of nice overhand rights. I thought that might hurt him in the later rounds if he didn't keep his hands up. 

[SocraTease]

RBY wins 10-6 after a couple of cautions on RBY at the end.

RBY used a couple of nice head and shoulder turns.

I mean they both rested during that time.  Clearly it was gamesmanship, but too many people acting like he pulled out a gun and shot Lee in the kneecaps. If a fake injury is all it takes to tech our rep, we have bigger problems.

Valencia down 8-0 has him right where he wants him. Venezuela with the "Captain Insano" gets warned. Valencia tries a flying headlock turn and goes out of bounds. Wins the challenge that would've ended the match on a tech fall.

Rumor is that Musukaev has been training in Ann Arbor...

[Tripnsweep]

Valencia earned a caution against Venezuela to make it 8-5 but comes up short.

Something looked suspicious there. 

[VakAttack]

Valencia looking...thick.

it was subtle, but if you pause it right before the feet to back, you'll see a clear circular void appear just above Lee's left kneecap

A crafty veteran move.
