There was some good wrestling at Pittsburg.

106 #5 Hitchcok v. #6 Scott
This was a treat. The freshman really showed some guts, but Scott was too much.

113 #3 Tujague v. Verhaege
This was not as close as 106, but Marty gave it a good shot.

120 #5 Beran v. McLaughlin
This was a real close one. Beran with the gutsy come from behind effort to tie it in regulation and then get the SV win. (Disclaimer: McLaughlin is my son)

126 #4 Pelfrey v. #2 Cokeley
What can you say, Cokeley is a stud in a loaded weight class. Pelfrey and Chenney will get more chances to prove themselves this weekend.

132 #2 Like v. #1 Hensley
Hensley won a good match. This is just the warm up to this weekends final.

138 #1 Dickman #5 Lautt
Dickman looked in control.

145 Shaw v. #3 Ellis
One sided match. Ellis with the 1st period fall. (Tujague moved up to 152)

152 #1 Henes v. Tujague
Here's where the real fun happened. Because Tujague jumped up to 152, Henes was in a dog fight right away and found himself on the wrong side of a 1st period fall (0:33)!

160 #1 Dulgarian v. #3 VanLerberg
Isaac was never in trouble, but I like to see guys who don't normally get pushed have to work. Dulgarian came out the winner 5-2.

195 #3 Gramke v. McBee
McBee with the 3-1 upset. McBee is peaking at the right time.

220 #1 Ewing v. #4 Feist
Ewing with the quick pin (0:59)
