Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 7 weeks ago
Mr. Niss I of course don't know if he's actually qualified, but I hope they just give it to Jon Jaques, for consistency in how they've played, for recruiting consistency, and because as an alum perhaps he'd stay longer if he has success than someone who would leave us for a program like William & Mary.i think they promote jaquesby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
Saturday morning, action starts at 11. 157: [3] Meyer Shapiro v [12] Bryce Andonian (VT) - Meyer is 2-0 vs Andonian. On the other side of the bracket, [6] Cardenas (Stanford) vs [7] Keller (Ohio). The winners face off for third, the losers for fifth. Cardenas beat Shapiro twice this season. Revenge would be sweet. 197: [5] Jacob Cardenas v [12] Rocky Elam (Mizzou) - Cardenas won at theby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
The evening session was equal parts thrilling and disappointing but now that the dust has settled, here we go: 133: [6] Arujau v [2] Crookham (Lehigh) in the semifinals. Is the third time the charm for Vito against Crookham? Indeed it was. Vito went for the jugular early and never let up. Takedown at the beginning of the first. Takedown at the end of the first. Takedown at the end of the seconby ugarte - Other Sports

Re: ECAC Semifinal - Dartmouth - 7 weeks ago
I admit that I wasn't paying as much attention to the hockey as I was to the wrestling but I thought that we were making Cooper Black work his ass off and had a lot of near misses. I thought the skates were moving but we weren't cracking through. I never felt like we were out of it even though the third Dartmouth goal was a gut punch. Goddamn do I want to win tomorrow.by ugarte - Hockey

Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
I had to run, so I wasn't able to watch the third round of consolation matches live. We had three guys going. 125: Ungar v Jordan - No scoring in the first period. Jordan chose down in the second. Ungar with a strong ride, got RT up over a minute but as they tumbled out of bounds something happened to Ungar's ankle. He got it taped up but he wasn't the same. Jordan cleverly chose top, bettingby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
125: Ungar v [18] DeAugustino - Slow start, as Ungar gets hit twice for stalling in the first period, costing him a point. In the second period, Ungar starts on bottom and gets out after ~50 seconds to tie the match. In the third, Ungar lets DeAugustino up pretty quickly. He could send the match to OT with a two-minute ride, but the worst case scenario is riding *almost* two minutes because it woby ugarte - Other Sports

Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
semsox Thanks for the recaps ugarte! As a non-wrestling expert who only tunes in for the NCAA's, I'm glad you were just as confounded by Foca's first match. I was watching live, glanced away for one of the basketball games, and when I checked in again, he was shaking hands. I rewound and was just as confused as to how it all happened. Pretty disappointing. Also regarding the Cardenas match, buby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 7 weeks ago
Session 2 recap: Championship: 125: [16] Ungar v [1] Braeden Davis (PSU) - Davis may have hurt his hand in the first match, which may have slowed him down. The result was another slog of a match. The only difference between this and Ungar's first round match is that Davis was better in the top position and picked up a RT point to win 2-1 in regulation. Ungar's next match is against DeAugustiby ugarte - Other Sports

Re: Wrestling 2024 Postseason - 8 weeks ago
NCAA round 1: 125: Brett Ungar in the 16/17 matchup against a kid from Rutgers. Listless bout where neither guy took any risks. The first 9 minutes ended tied 1-1. In the rideout tiebreaker, Ungar escaped in 9 seconds then held down Rutgers for the full 30. Ballgame. Boring but it counts. He faces the 1 seed next round so I'm peeking at his path through the consolation bracket 133: Vito Arby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 8 weeks ago
I liked that Beccles and Feigen started getting real minutes at the end. Feigen can flat shoot and Beccles can put the ball on the floor and finish (but can't shoot well from what I saw). I'm looking forward to seeing what Beccles can do when he's got more freedom to attack.by ugarte - Other Sports

Re: Cornell vs Ohio State NIT game - Preview - 8 weeks ago
we did not lose this game because of the refs. they didn't even call an unbalanced game. we get a lot of fouls called on us because we play very handsy defense. it was true against columbia and it's even more true against ohio state when we're at a real physical disadvantage. despite that disadvantage we were in it to the final minute. down one when williams dribbled the ball off his own leg andby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs Ohio State NIT game - Preview - 8 weeks ago
mike1960 He called a timeout!I thought we should have gotten the TO too. Nazir lost the handle on a drive and tried to get the ball back and the ref called a jump ball with possession going the wrong way. Clutch 3 from Ohio State to go up one, the Nazir Williams turnover, then a long inbounds pass for an easy bucket to go up three. Off a timeout, Isaiah Gray had a clean lane for a dunk but heby ugarte - Other Sports

mike1960 semsox Officiating has not been kind, but we are showing alot of fight Ya can't get in another player's face in college. They'll call that every time.Like the guy said, he may have been warned after the dunk. 79-76, Cornell ball with 2:08 to play. OSU making it near-impossible to get a 3 off by playing tight on the perimeter.by ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs Ohio State NIT game - Preview - 8 weeks ago
mike1960 We're fouling a lot. I wonder if we're getting tired.We're outsized. Mostly smart fouls imo. 75-74, OSU with ~3:30 left and Cornell will have the ball coming out of a timeout Earl called to resettle the offense.by ugarte - Other Sports
