Wentzel 8-1 through 2. Has over 3 minutes of riding time. 4 point near fall with about 0:25 left. I thought he had him!
 
GREAT ROUND. They must have a decent cheering section, all of our guys kept pointing up and getting excited. You’d be surprised how much that helps the wrestlers when they have a bunch of people getting excited for them.

Wentzel has #4 Hamiti from Wisconsin in the next round

Hamiti is much more skilled but obviously nowhere close on strength, and it's a true freshman vs. a sixth-year senior so out of all the really good dudes in the blood round he is prob my favorite matchup for Jake.

His ability to scramble is the biggest worry but im hoping it looks a lot like Jake vs Keegan O'Toole did last year and Jake just over powers him

Yeah, Hamiti should be able to get to Jake's legs about as easily as Kharchla did but the difference is that CK was just strong enough to power through and get some neutral danger calls on Wentzel in those scrambles. Hamiti does not have that strength.

Anyone know what times are guys are expected to take the mat tonight? I’m juggling four hoops games and ESPN+ Matcast. Having an idea when to switch up would be helpful.
 
Never followed wrestling - are there like… top 25 rankings? How does this tournament factor in?
 
Dang that was painful...got caught and couldn't recover. Hard way to end his Pitt career.
