Post by: Al DeFlorio on January 07, 2012, 06:33:22 PM
Tomorrow's important dual meet with Lehigh will be televised live on SportsNetwork NY (SNY.tv) at 1pm.  Lehigh upset Cornell last year and this meet will affect seedings in the EIWA tournament.

Cornell hasn't beaten Lehigh in a dual since 2006!

Halftime -- Cornell leads 17-0

Coach Koll with a gutsy call on the line-up, staring Frank Perrelli at 133 instead of his usual 125.  It works as Bricker Dixon gets an easy win at 125 and Franks holds off the heavier wresterler for a 7-6 win.  Nevinger upsets Steve Dutton at 141, Chris Villalong gets a late take down to win at 149 and Kyle Dake destroys his opponent for a 16-0 tech fall seconds into the second period.

Al -- Hope you don't mind my updating the subject.

Peppleman drops a snoozer in OT (3-1) and Billy George then falls with seconds left in OT (2-0).

Bosak though with a huge 2-1 win over #1 Hamlin. Very smart wrestling by Steve and Hamlin looked exhausted at the end.  

Cam got a major even though he was clearly not 100%. Lehigh's #1 ranked heavy ends the dual with a pin.

Nice to finally beat those guys.

Nice win today. Lower weights did a great job. The two OT losses were tough. Excellent confidence booster to Bosak. Simaz looked slow and vulnerable on his feet -- maybe he's still feeling the effects of his leg knock?

Why can't Cornell recruit a big time heavy?

Cam looked conservative, making sure he didn't tweak the hamstring.  As he long as he keeps healing, it should be fine.

Disappointing performances by Villalonga and Peppleman.  Sure CV won, but they both looked way too defensive.

I have no idea why Cornell struggles at finding a big time heavy.
