Kansas dominated Texas in the last dual by a score of 46-24 to enter the 5th/6th place medal matches.
The team finally got a fire lit beneath them with the Technical Fall from Derek Koehn over the Texas All-American Luke Ashmore by a score of 15-4. He started the match off right with a nice three point and went into the second period with a score of 3-3. In the second period Koehn got a body-lock around Ashmore and threw him for 5 POINTS, then lifted him again for 3 and 1 and then initiated a flurry of gutwrenches to come out with a Technical Superiority. This pivotal match was just the start of something good.

The rest of the team went on to a series of falls and major decisions to make a comeback and annihilate the Texas team. Also worth mentioning was beautiful 5 and 1 point throw by T.J. Hawkins, although he did not come out with the victory he did pump up the crowd and get his first 5 point throw at a national tournament.

Speaking of crowds, any of you in the Kansas City or N. Kansas area should come and make the kansas crowd even bigger. The team needs all the help they can get going up against the Minnesota Sith team, which have already defeated us. Hopefully, our morale is up from the last time they met.
