The young lady who just sang the national anthem absolutely crushed it. Big response when she hit those high notes at the end. 

125 Pounds

#1 Sebastian Rivera (Northwestern) vs #5 Jack Mueller (Virginia)

Mueller wastes no time getting the first takedown. He's got upset on his mind. Rivera has yet to lose at 125 pounds this year. Mueller with a smothering ride, over 2 minutes of RT already. 2:54 of riding time for Mueller. The second period will start in neutral due to optional start for Rivera.

Mueller in on another single leg, and he converts for two more. It's 5-0, riding ticking away again. Riding time over four minutes and counting. There is no escape for Seabass. Third period starts, again in neutral, but by Rivera's choose. 

Slide by for Mueller and it's two more to make it 7-0. The ride goes back in. This is one of the most punishing rides I have ever seen. RT long since locked up. 33 seconds to go, Rivera needs a miracle. Rivera gets a reversal but no miracles come with it. The Virginia Cavaliers have an NCAA finalist! Insane top ride for Mueller. 

#2 Nick Piccininni (Oklahoma State) vs #3 Spencer Lee (Iowa)

Lee strikes first, looking for revenge after getting cradled and pinned in the OK State Iowa dual meet. Now Lee has a tilt working. Pich somehow avoids giving up nearfall points. 1:22 left in the first, still 2-0 Lee. Pich with the escape to cut the lead to 1. 

Lee starts the second underneath, looking to add to his slim lead. Lee escapes, then immediately shoots back in. He converts for the 5-1 lead. Pich with a reversal to tighten it up, 5-3 Lee leading. 

It's 6-3 now (not sure where the point came from but Lee is on top in the third. Pich escapes but only after riding time gets over a minute. It's 6-4, Pich needs a takedown and at least 5 seconds of riding time. There's a scramble that eats up a lot of time. 11 seconds to go. Pich in on a desperation shot and Lee pancakes him! Two and backpoints, but it's moot. Spencer Lee is back in destructo mode! Lee back to the finals! 

He'll have Mueller, who is currently undefeated on the season.

#1 Daton Fix (Oklahoma State) vs #5 Luke Pletcher (Ohio State)

Fix strikes first simultaneously to Suriano. Fix has double boots in and is making life miserable for Pletcher. Fix does not allow Pletcher to escape after the initial takedown. Fix will take a turn on bottom in the second. 

Fix is out and takes a 3-0 lead with 1:45 on the RT clock. Fix taking ground from Pletcher, but no more scores. 

In the third, Pletcher takes neutral. Pletcher looking for an opening but it's nowhere to be found. Until Pletcher finds one on the boundary, but there's not enough time left to mount a proper comeback. Fix has RT and he wins 4-2, making the finals in his first trip to the NCAAs!

#2 Stevan Micic (Michigan) vs #3 Nick Suriano (Rutgers)

Suriano gets a take down just as Fix does as well. Suriano gets a big mat return and has a leg turked. He's been brutal in this position in Pittsburgh. Suriano completes the first period ride out. Suriano will start the second on bottom.

Nick escapes almost immediately off the whistle. He has just over 2 minutes of riding time and a 3-0 lead. Suriano with some heavy snaps, Micic having difficulty getting through Suriano's head and hands. No scores for the rest of the period. Micic will go underneath in the third. 

Micic escapes, Suriano has 2:11 of RT. Suriano in on a shot, kills some clock and we get a stalemate. 58 seconds left in regulation, RT locked up. Micic trying to snap but to no avail. Suriano makes his second consecutive finals!

Fix vs Suriano in the finals. Well it last 7 minutes? 11? 30???

#1 Yianni Diakomihalis (Cornell) vs #5 Jaydin Eierman (Missouri)

Yianni has had Eierman's number, beating him in their three meetings. Yianni jumps out to a quick 2-0 lead, but Eierman escapes to make it 2-1. A takedown and nearly a cradle gives Eierman the lead. He throws in double boots and there's a stalemate with 1:36 on the clock. Yianni escapes and its tied up 3-3. That's how the first period ends. 

Yianni goes underneath to start the second. Yianni escapes but only after Eierman racked up 1:03 of RT. A big scramble to end the period but no takedowns. Yianni leads 4-3.

Eierman on bottom in the third. He escapes to tie it up, RT under a minute. More crazy scrambles. I mean these guys love to scramble. Neutral danger zone TD for Yianni in the clutch! Now they've both locked up a cradle. Eierman gets the escape. More scrambles. That's it though, Yianni DIakomihalis is going back to the finals to try and defend his title! 

Great match. Eierman wanted a locked hands at the end but didn't get it. Tremendous effort and innovative funky wrestling from both dudes. 

#3 Nick Lee (Penn State) vs #2 Joey McKenna (Ohio State)

Lee and McKenna trade shots but no one scores after 2 minutes of wrestling. McKenna being more aggressive in the referee's opinion (and mine, though no one is asking) and Lee picks up a stall warning in the closing seconds of the first. 0-0 as we go to the second period. 

Lee goes under McKenna to begin the second frame. Lee escapes after 1:05 to take the 1-0 lead. That's how the period ends. 

McKenna underneath now. He gets to his feet, and he's out, RT under a minute though. McKenna in on a shot, he finished and takes the 3-1 lead. McKenna picks up a stall for not returning Lee. On the restart Lee is out easily and 3-2, but McKenna has 1:29 of RT.  A stall on McKenna with 11 seconds to go gives lee a point but RT is locked up. McKenna is going to his first ever NCAA finals!

McKenna vs Yianni. Should be fun!

149

#1 Anthony Ashnault (Rutgers) vs #5 Matthew Kolodzik (Princeton)

Ashnault trying to become Rutgers second NCAA finalist. There is a very cautious first period and no one scores. We go to the second 0-0, Ashnault will start on bottom. Ashanult escapes but nothing doing in neutral again. 

Kolodzik chooses down. Ashnault riding tough. Kolodzik to his feet. Ashnault can't bring him down and gets hit for stalling. Now Ashnault gets his mat return. Riding time is over a minute. Ashnault with two more big mat returns. And that'll do it. Ashnault gets the third period ride out to win 2-0. Two for two in the semis for Rutgers!

#6 Austin O'Connor (North Carolina) vs #2 Micah Jordan (Ohio State)

O'Connor will look to keep his hot streak going against Micah Jordan. Jordan looking to finish off his storied Buckeye career in style. No one scores in the first. 

AOC started the second on bottom. He escapes but is taken down by Micah Jordan. An escape tied it but Jordan has the edge in neutral and takes him down again. 

In the third Micah take down, escapes and takes AOC down to run the score to 6-3. An escape makes it 6-4, RT over a minute for Michah. No more scores in the third and the Buckeyes get back to back finalists!

Micah vs Ashnault. We've seen this one a couple times, but all bets are off in the NCAA finals.

157

#1 Jason Nolf (Penn State) vs #5 Hayden Hidlay (NC State)

Nolf gobbles up a single leg and converts. Or does he? He does not, stalemate. Now Hidlay scoops up an ankle. There's a scramble, and Hidlay gets a flash takedown just as time expires in the first. They are going to review it to make sure. After a lengthy review, no takedown! Boos from the crowd. On to the second. 

Nolf starts the second underneath, bagels on the scoreboard. Nolf escapes and takes Hidlay down for a rapid fire 3-0 lead. Hidlay's out to make it 3-1. 30 seconds to go in the second. 

The review put this match about a period behind the other. Berger already in the finals. An escape by Hidlay makes it 3-2, 90 seconds to go in regulation, RT not a factor. Not a lot of shots from either wrestler. 30 seconds to go. Hidlay commits, he's got a leg in the air. Nolf keeps that far leg away though as victory escapes Hidaly's grasp by the thinnest of margins. Nolf is going to his fourth straight finals!

#6 Kaleb Young (Iowa) vs #2 Tyler Berger (Nebraska)

Berger strikes first, but Young is out quickly to make it 2-1 in favor of the Husker. We go to the second same score. 

Young chooses down and is out before Berger gets his RT over a minute. It stands at 0:54. Berger with another double for two. A quick escape but now RT is at 1:07 for Berger, who leads 4-3. On to the third. 

Young escapes to make it 5-3, RT under a minute. 40 seconds to go in regulation. They stay in neutral for the final seconds and Berger takes it. Nebraska will have a finalist!

Nolf survives a scare but he's back in the finals against a familiar opponent, Tyler Berger. Nolf is 5-0 against Berger

#8 Mekhi Lewis (Virginia Tech) vs #4 Evan Wick (Wisconsin)

Lewis knocked off the previously undefeated Bull but he's got a unique problem to solve in Evan Wick, and the NCAA Tournament version of Wick at that. Lewis able to figure out how to get through Wick's defenses and scores first. Wick is out after 51 seconds. Wick in on a shot late but Lewis' hips are too heavy. We go to the second. But first, we pause for blood, I think from Lewis. 

In the second, Lewis trying to stand, but Wick has his legs tangled up. Wick in on a couple shots but Lewis defends. Mekhi gets dinged for stalling. No more scores, on to the third. 

Wick chose top in the second, Mekhi will choose neutral in the third. He has a 3-1 lead, RT not a factor but that stall warning may be at some point. Wick can get to Lewis's legs with that long frame but so far has been unable to finish. Another stall on Lewis and Wick pulls to within one. No a counter by Lewis in shortime for a takedown to ice it. Mekhi Lewis is in the finals!

#3 Josh Shields (Arizona State) vs #2 Vincenzo Joseph (Penn State) 

Cenzo grabs a leg and finishes to get a quick 2 point lead. Sheilds escapes to make it 2-1 after 23 seconds. The period ends with no other scores. Cenzo starts the second on bottom.

An escape for Cenzo makes it 3-1. No more scores and we go to the third. Shields starts underneath. Shields is out to make it 3-2, riding time not a factor. Sheilds pressuring in, seatbelt whizzer position but no score. Cenzo playing defense, Shields can't get through. Vincenzo Joseph will be back in his third straight NCAA finals to attempt the back-to-back-to-back championships!

Mekhi Lewis vs Vincenzo Joseph. We've never seen that one before. I'm personally very happy that we will get to tomorrow night.

#1 Mark Hall (Penn State) vs #4 Myles Amine (Michigan)

Hall has never lost to Amine, but Amine has never failed to make Hall sweat it out. All four meetings have been one point decisions for Mark. Great scramble on the edge but no scores and we go to the second, goose eggs on the board. 

Amine starts on bottom. An escape after 37 seconds gives the Wolverine the slimmest of leads. 

We go to the third, Hall escapes to tie it up. There's a scramble but a tenacious crotch lock saves Amine and we're getting overtime. No scores, or serious attacks, and it's tiebreaker time. 

Hall gets out easily in the first segment. Now Amine's turn on bottom. Amine stands, Hall is hit for stalling but Amine doesn't escape. 14 seconds to go on the restart. Amine up again, Hall brings him down. On the edge, in a crab ride, Hall doesn't let him go. Hall wins again, by one point, and is in the finals for the third straight time!

#3 Zahid Valencia (Arizona State) vs #2 Daniel Lewis (Missouri)

Lewis shocked the wrestling world with a second period pinfall of Valencia last time they met. The defending national champ will be looking for revenge. A takedown for Valencia gives him the first points of the match. An escape by Lewis but then a big double leg by Valencia makes it 4-1. Zahid had Lewis' legs helicoptering around the mat. Another escape and another takedown and it's 6-2 Zahid. 

Valencia goes underneath in the second and a punishing ride by Lewis keeps Valencia grounded for 90 seconds at least. A full nelson call on Lewis with 5 seconds left in the second makes it 7-2. Don't see a lot of full nelson penalties at this level. 

We start the third in neutral (assuming that was Zahid's choice). A near takedown is waived off after a review but Valencia finally gets his 8th and 9th points with about a minute to go. Valencia coasts to an 11-3 victory. Message delivered, Valencia is back in the finals!

#1 Myles Martin (Ohio State) vs #5 Max Dean (Cornell)

Myles blitzed Dean at the CKLV this season, winning the takedown battle by a lot to zero. Martin also won in a dual meet in a similar fashion. Martin may be better at getting to legs than anyone in the NCAA. He leads 2-1 after a nifty and nimble takedown. Dean able to slow Martin down for most of the rest of the first, we go to the second, Martin leading 2-1.

An escape by Dean ties it up at 2-2. Dean keeps Martin at bay for the rest of the second. TO the third, all tied up!

Martin reverses Dean in a move faster than I can witness. it's 4-3 after a Dean esscape, RT not a factor, 1 minutes left in regulation. There's a lengthy scramble. It keeps going. Dean comes out on top! There's 10 seconds to go. Martin relaxes, Dean collapses him to his belly! UPSET CITY! MAX DEAN TAKES OUT MYLES MARTIN!

That may be the upset of the tournament, considering what a lock Martin appeared to be at the onset of the NCAAs. Incredible stuff from Max Dean. 

#6 Drew Foster (UNI) vs #15 Chip Ness (North Carolina)

Foster has two career wins over Ness, but they came last year, and not in March, when Ness is seemingly unstoppable. Foster in on a leg but Ness wrestles to a stalemate. We go to the second scoreless. Ness starts down. 

Gnarly mat return by Foster, he's got 27 seconds of RT and we'll restart. Ness is out after 43 ticks of the RT clock. In neutral, Foster works through a shot for a takedown, then another two swipes, nearly a ping. Foster takes a commanding 4-1 lead into the third with choice. 

A quick tilt gives Ness life. It's 4-3 Ness. Is this the next #15 seed to make the finals, a la Ronnie Perry? Foster escapes, it's 5-3, riding time not a factor, 30 seconds to go. Foster shoots, he finishes! That should ice it. UNI has a national finalist! Drew Foster will take on Max Dean!

Whoever had Max Dean and Drew Foster in the finals of their 184 pound bracket, please step forward and admit that you are a liar.

#1 Bo Nickal (Penn State) vs #4 Pat Brucki (Princeton)

Quick 2 for Nickal, he's going to work with two boots in. Bo looking for swipes on the edge but Brucki stays away from 45 degrees. Brucki escapes after 96 seconds. Bo takes him down to make it 4-1, less than thirty in the period. Brucki chooses bottom in the second and escapes to make it 4-2. 

A takedown from Nickal and he slaps a cradle in. Bo rocks him back, Brucki is in trouble. A readjustment and there it is. Bo Nickal is going to his fourth NCAA finals looking for his third title!

#3 Preston Weigel (Oklahoma State) vs #2 Kollin Moore (Ohio State)

Kollin Moore wastes no time hitting a barrel roll on Weigel. It's 2-1 after the escape. Another takedown and escapes makes it 4-2. That's how the period ends. We go to the second. Moore chooses neutral. 

Another takedown from Moore makes it 6-2. He is leading the takedown battle three to nothing. In the third, Moore with another TD to extend his lead. Moore has 1:42 of RT and a 6 point lead. Weigel will probably need a pin if he's going to advance to the finals. 40 seconds to go in regulation, still 9-3 Moore. Weigel looking for the cement job. He won't get it. Moore is going to his first NCAA finals!

Nickal has two wins over Moore this year.  A pin and a 10-3 decision.

#1 Derek White (Oklahoma State) vs #4 Jordan Wood (Lehigh)

Wood looking to become Lehigh's first finalist since Darian Cruz. White looking to become OK State's first finalist since Daton Fix. No scores between White and Wood in the first. A tactical, measured heavyweight first period. 

White starts the second on bottom. White is out after 26 seconds. No scores in the remaining 94 seconds. Wood goes underneath to start the final frame of regulation. Wood's out in about 10 seconds. 1-1, RT not a factor. We go to sudden victory. It's White in OT with the takedown! Another finalist for the Cowboys!

#2 Anthony Cassar (Penn State) vs #3 Gable Steveson (Minnesota)

Steveson looking for revenge after suffering his first collegiate loss in the Big Ten finals to Cassar. Two stall calls, including one on a near takedown that Cassar needed to dive out of bounds to avoid giving up the two, gives Steveson the 1-0 lead. 

Steveson goes underneath with a 1 point lead. He escapes after 6 seconds to take a 2-0 lead. No scores and we go to the third. Cassar is out quickly. Steveson shoots, Cassar reattacks and gets the go-ahead takedown. Cassar leads 3-2 with 1:10 left on the clock. RT ticking closes to a minute. Steveson's up on his feet. He's out, but riding time is at 1:02. Or is it? Minnesota challenges the time of the escape. No change. Or maybe 1 second. It's 1:01, so it changes but it's of no consequence. 30 seconds to go. 15. Another challenge from Minnesota's coach Eggum. He want's a headgear pull called. He doesn't get it. 12 seconds on the clock. Cassar circles, time runs out, Anthony Cassar goes from the bench to the NCAA finals!

The finals is a rematch of the Southern Scuffle finals, White won 3-2. Since then, Cassar has beaten Gable Steveson twice. We'll see what happens tomorrow night!

The final eight in each weight class have been determined. What is not known is the order in which the final eight finish. Let's all tune in tomorrow and find out. Sorry for the typos, see you soon!
