Rumor has it there may be more of this so don’t get married to our first round matchups just yet.

No, tip of the cap for that huge upset at Princeton. His comments are too 'insider' and do not help viewers understand what is going on. IMO. What the heck does 'laces up' mean anyway? Do you know?

No I don't, but I do notice Shane Sparks, and Jim as noted,.. are using some creative albeit CUTE terminology to describe some wrestling situations. For example "water-falls", "coffee-grinder", and the ever popular
"cow-catcher"

Let us not forget the ever-growing, now popular term "pin-fall".

Pin fall is an old term of wrestling. At least the 1930s when I was a kid.

Here is from a State Championship from 1941. Another popular term for a pin was "threw".
115: Hanion (H) threw Taylor in :52
125: Conrad (H) decisioned Corbitt
135: R. Elliott (H) threw Godfrey in 3:30
145: Wilson (H) dec Hannon
155: Elliott (H) threw Rawson in 3:20
165: Sbordone (P) threw Cokeley in 3:20
185: Adair (P) threw Brissey in 3:50

Isn't that a bowling term?

Sounds sort of redundant.

Those were not pa weights from 1941

Where does it say PA?

[Richb-3]

I said it was not PA because Jerry Conklin was not named. Someone else said it was Pa.

Stanich & Crookham's bouts will be shown on ESPN+ at the same time. Is there some way to get a split screen of just those 2 mats like you can get on Flo as opposed to tuning in to Matcast and getting small windows of all 4 mats?
