For those of you that can't make it to Spokane, WA this year, there will be video coverage!

I just checked PSBLive.com site and I don't see any note that they will be in Spokane...I'm hoping that changes soon.

Here is the link for the main tournament site with brackets and other info: http://www.nic.edu/athletics/wrestlingNationals/

I'll post anything I find.

Word from the SID:

The championship on Saturday will be webcast live. Access the webcast by going to www.nic.edu/athletics/wrestlingnationals.

The website will also have live stats (or semi-live I guess) posted after every bout and bracket updates after each round also at the website above.

Nice work, Ike.

Hats off to a National level tournament providing video. Will there be announcers to go with it?

Your welcome James. I'm pretty bummed about missing it this year...I don't remember the last time I didn't go. It's going to be a helluva tourney this year too. I see a tight four team race (Labette, Clackamas, Nassau, and North Idaho) with a handful of others right behind them (Iowa Central, Muskegon, Ellsworth, Rend Lake). We drew well at 84 and 97...both of those guys have a good shot at bringing home individual titles. It looks like we'll end up with a lot of tough quarters matches though. Didn't like to see Redleaf draw Fortune second match...he'll get AA status regardless of the outcome of that match though. They won it in '05 with 6 AA's. This team is capable of having more than 6 AA's. I'm getting excited!

I hate to see you miss as well. The last thing I told Joe before he left was to make sure Ike and our sister Gina are not even in the same section of seating due to the fact that you two together may get the fans insighted into a riot. I hate to see you miss the tournament- but I will sleep better now.

Ooooo....James. I slowed my roll years ago. It's all about avoidance measures, right? I just don't sit next to the Iowa Central section anymore...I sit right in the middle. One of these years the refs will understand that ALL calls are suppose to go Labette's way too.

Seriously though, I'm glad to hear Gina will be there. Is your Pops going up this year? The Cardinal crew will probably be slim with the tourney being so far from the midwest.

Ike- email me when you get a chance- I dont have your email for some reason.

Thanks

9:30 AM Championship First Round!

9:30 AM(PST) I would assume.

All Cardinals made weight...TCOB time! An hour and a half before action starts.

I smell yellar medals...definitely not bacon...yup, yellar medals.

Looks like some bad news from the NIC Website:

Real-time results will begin around 10 a.m. (PST) on Friday, Feb. 25.

Watch here for webcast of the championship finals Saturday at 6 p.m. (PST).

Only the Finals...ugggh! I'll post first round match by match results (for LCC) as I get them via text, since it looks like we won't have real-time results for the first hour.

At 125...Ark City product Garrett Jones is up 11-2 in the second.

Jones wins 16-14! Nearly had the fall.

Apparently the clock was screwed up and the buzzer sounded several times stopping action. They'll need to get that worked out!

Ty Fittje wins by fall! Two for two so far...keep rollin.

Is 8-9 AA's, two champs, and a team title too bold of a prediction?

Jordan Basks by fall! Michael Perez wins 6-0. Four for four now...rollin'
