  1. Bruntil wins! And more importantly to me, she threatened or attempted about 8 footsweeps! I love those. Even when they don't work, they help out.
  2. Pending challenge, Bruntil a 5-3 winner against China. China was close to a takedown in the final seconds but never gained control. Challenge should be lost.
  3. Elor 7-0 winner over Turkey. So strong with great timing. That's a pretty sweet combo.
  4. Adeline Gray with the folkstyle half nelson for the pin. She wrestles for Bronze now, right? Kayla Miracle picks her opponent off the ground, holds her up, then walks her out of bounds for the tech. She had the strength to do that with about :10 left in the match.
  5. In the first period, the ref blew his whistle calling passivity on the Mongolian just as Hildebrandt was securing a takedown. That has to be like the other team in a basketball game hitting a bank shot three-pointer as the half-time buzzer goes off. A bad omen.
  6. These Azerbaijaini women are tough, but Maroulis with the easy win.
  7. I would have her on my team any day. She fought like a dog when down, and she is lightening quick. Of course, she'd be JV behind Hildebrandt. Still, I hope Sarah brings her through repechage.
  8. The Azeri is unbelievably quick. Hildebrandt is just out-techniquing her now. Fun match!
  9. On this day, Japan was stronger, quicker and the better hand fighter. Bummer. I hope Gray is pulled back in. Another match in which a couple of hard sprawls might've won. The chest wrap attempts failed both times.
  10. Kilty almost got jobbed. Good challenge. She goes on to beat a tough, tough Bulgarian by 9. Good show!
  11. The IOC and UWW are "The Ambiguously Gray Duo." I was going to use logic to try to pretzel out an answer, but that has failed me in the past when trying to decode statements from The Ambiguously Gray Duo.
  12. Maroulis the easy winner against Spain with a nice foot sweep that was lost when the feed went down but found again in the end-of-match replays. Kilty must be waiting for the prescribed time. Her match has been up for 10 minutes now. Gray waiting on a challenge in the match before hers.
  13. Well, I'm going to celebrate the 97 kg Bronze, then. As for new business, Kilty, Maroulis and Gray all up in two on Mats A, B and C.
  14. 10-6 AMERICA! Snyder and the Uzbeki both added takedowns. Man that dude is a damn cartoon villain, what I call an "Alley Runner." You see him in an alley, you run.
  15. Challenge won. I did jinx it. Scores now 4-4 with the Uzbeki having criteria.
  16. 6-2 now, and Snyder was lucky that chest wrap of the Uzbeki's counted for 2 and not 4, otherwise it'd be 4-4.
  17. The Uzbeki tried two switches to evade the takedown. Those are our folkstyle moves! Snyder 2-0 at break.
