Down goes Tomasello. Gilman with the pin. He has his number.

 

Another good B1G matchup for the title tomorrow night. Megaludis beat him twice earlier this season.

#4 Gilman (Iowa) vs #3 Megaludis (PSU)

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Wow! The defending 133 champ gets pinned in 21 seconds..

[ccgeneral 38,084]

#14 upsets #2 @ 141. 

 

Jackson should be up in about 45 minutes.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Martinez (ILL) vs Nolf (PSU) will be a good tomorrow night for the 157 title. Martinez was the first freshmen last year to go undefeated since Cael Sanderson in '99. They split earlier in the season.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Jackson up. Let's go to work brother!

[LIHoosier 26,511]

Nice takedown!

 

Damn, he was so close. Needed a couple more feet of mat.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Damn! Jackson about had him. 4-3

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Tomorrow morning @ 11 am ET on ESPNU.

 

‏@iuwrestling1: Jackson will move into the consolation semifinals against Casey Kent (Penn) or Cody Walters (Ohio). Winner goes to the 3rd place bout.

Jackson fell 9-5 to Kent (Penn) and shoots for 5th place now.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Boom! Jackson wins 5-2 vs Weatherspoon (ISU) for 5th place and finishes up a great season 35-9.

 

Let's get the title next year brother!  :good:

 

I don't think anyone is chasing history this year, but there's a few good matches tonight on ESPN @ 8 pm ET.
