2011 Midlands Championships, Day One: Session II Open Thread

Midlands coverage (all times CT):
12/29: 9:30am -- Session I, 7pm -- Session II (Quarterfinals, consolation rounds)
12/30: 12pm -- Session III (Semifinals, consolation rounds), 7:20pm -- Session IV (Finals, consolation rounds)

TV: Northwestern All-Access (Thursday Quarterfinals); BTN (9:30pm CT; tape-delayed coverage of Friday's Finals)

Radio: Takedown Radio (internet radio), Hawkeye All-Access ($$$), AM-800 KXIC (free if you're in Iowa)

Liveblog: The Open Mat / Andy Hamilton at Hawk Central. I'll also be open threading the event on Thursday and Friday.

BRACKET Right here

And, yes, BTN's airing of the Finals will also be opposite the Insight Bowl. It appears that you can also access NW All-Access if you're a video.BTN.com subscriber, too.

NOTE: Given everything else we have going on -- the Insight Bowl tomorrow, Purdue b-ball wrap-up, the usual random insanity we're prone to delve into -- the Midlands Open Threads are going to be run as FanPosts so that they don't get lost in the shuffle. I'll bump them occasionally, but you should always be able to find them on the right-hand side of the page in the Fanposts section.

Moore?

That’s not a problem. He’s probably a natural 165er anyway. I think he’s only getting the nod at 157 this week because DSJ is hurt and they need Kelly down at 149. Kelly was the likely backup at 157 at the start of the season.

The problem is that Evans is also at 165 and he’s looked pretty good himself.

He's also in the same class as Evans.

The only way to get Moore, DSJ, and Evans all on the mat would be to move Lofthouse out of 174, which won’t be easy. He’s looked pretty solid there this year (a few hiccups aside) and I’m not sure he could move up to 184 and be effective.

FRIDAY MATCHES

Championship bracket (semifinals)
125: #2 McD vs. #3 Jarod Patterson (Okla)
133: #1 Ramos vs. #4 B.J. Futrell (Ill)
141: #1 Marion vs. #12 Krop (Princeton)
174: #2 Lofthouse vs. #3 Jordan Blanton (Ill)
HWT: #3 Telford vs. #10 McMullan (jNW)

Consolation bracket
133: #9 Clark vs. Mason Beckman (Lehigh)
149: Kelly vs. Caleb Irvin (UN-Ill)
157: N Moore vs. #10 John Greishelmer (UN-Edin)
165: #8 Evans vs. Corey Lear (Bucknell)
184: #8 Wagner vs. #6 Tony Dallago (Ill)
184: Fahler vs. #7 John Dickson (VT)
197: #7 Gambrall vs. #11 Dan Rinaldi (Rutgers)
HWT: #7 Rasing vs. #9 Connor Medbery (UN-Wis)

A win in those consolation matches would guarantee the winner no worse than 8th place, which would be valuable placement points. Iowa looks well-positioned to get some wins in the consolation bracket, although both of the 184ers have tough matchups.
