Pre-meet notes: The dual is starting at 141
There’s no clock on the live stream, so I’ll do my best with time remaining.
141: Trevor Jauch(UNI) vs #9 Chris Mecate (ODU)
1st: Alright so Schwab and co. have switched things up again, we see Jauch back at 141 against the top-10 Mecate. Jauch with a half shot, nothing. Collar tie results in a quick stalemate. Restart, Jauch with a head fake, nothing. Also Carolina has scored in the football game (we can hear the game on in the background of the wrestling broadcast). Not a lot of action. Jauch takes a shot, but Mecate backs out of it, into a front headlock, under a minute left, stalemate. 30 seconds left, Jauch tries a go-by, nothing, and thats the period. 0-0
2nd: Mecate goes down to start, caution on him. Mecate up right away, Jauch lifts him in the air but can’t return him, now Mecate goes to the edge, stall warning on Jauch. Jauch lifts Mecate and returns him, right on the edge, Mecate hits a roll, being to get a reversal now but they go OOB. Now we get ODU Head Coach Martin talking to the official, there’s something wrong with the RT clock, but Martin challenged the reversal on the edge too. Alright after a LONG review, the call on the mat stands and ODU has lost their challenge (per the commentators). Jauch back on top, Mecate up but Jauch trying to return him, can’t and Mecate gets the E1, he leads 1-0. Jauch with a really nice ankle pick and goes to the high crotch and gets behind Mecate for the T2, 2-1, and now Mecate rolls and gets the R2 and nearly gets NF points but can’t, it’s 3-2 Mecate but Jauch has RT. to the 3rd.
3rd:Jauch doesn’t want to go under Mecate, he chooses neutral to start the 3rd. Tie ups, not a lot of action again, Jauch with a snap, nothing. tries a go-by but nothing. Jauch with a duck under and hits the single leg and gets the T2! And that’s the period! Jauch wins 5-3 with RT!
Match Score: Jauch wins, 5-3
Team score: UNI leads, 3-0
149: Jake Hodges (UNI) vs #8 Alexander Richardson (ODU)
1st: Wow right off the whistle Richardson gets the T2 and is already looking for a turn, Hodges is flat on his belly, no up to his base, but Richardson with a leg in flattens him back out, now a hammer lock and is working Hodges over and Richardson is getting NF points, and he gets the NF4. Richardson was called for an illegal hold, so it’s 6-1 halfway through the first period. Off the restart Richardson gets called for another illegal hold, so it’s 6-2 and ODU’s bench has been warned. I can’t really describe what Richardson is doing for the illegal hold because I don’t really know. Now Richardson with a power half in and gets another NF4, and is really close to a pinfall, but can’t quite get there, he leads 10-2 now. Stalemate, restart and that’s the period.
2nd: They go neutral to start, and then Richardson in on a double leg and he gets the T2, 12-2 he leads. Richardson flat on his belly, Richardson with two legs in and now is working the power half, and gets the NF4 again, Richardson still working for the pinfall, Hodges doing a good job of fighting it off, and then Richardson turns him again for the NF2, and that’s the tech fall
Match Score: Richardson wins 18-2
Team score: ODU leads, 5-3
157: #20 Bryce Steiert (UNI) vs Devin Geoghegan (ODU)
1st: Right off the bat Geoghegan with a shot but Steiert rolls through an dis looking for the T2 but they just scramble, pretty crazy scramble actually, now Steiert with a leg pass, Geoghegan dropped over the back, and now Geoghegan is nearly on his back, he passes the leg though, Steiert still has an ankle, this is crazy. Two minutes in and we’re still trying to decide the first scramble but Steiert ends up on top and gets the T2. 2-0 as they go OOB. Restart, caution on Geoghegan, and then Steiert cuts Geoghegan. 2-1 now Steiert leads, Geoghegan controls a tie but time runs out, to the 2nd.
2nd: Steiert starts down, he tries to turn into Geoghegan to get the R2 but just stands up to get the E1, 3-1 Steiert leads. Geoghegan with a high crotch attempt, nothing, then a snap that doesn’t work. Steiert with a shot and again has Geoghegan over his back and Geoghegan will be hit with an illegal head scissors, so it’s 4-1. Steiert tries another shot, nothing, and that’s the 2nd.
3rd: Steiert on top to start, Geoghegan hits a roll and kicks out, so Geoghegan trails 4-2 now. Go-by by Steiert, nothing, duck under again for Geoghegan, nothing, shot by Steiert, nothing. One minute left. Something I hadn’t noticed before was that Geoghegan looks pretty big against Steiert. Under 30 now, Geoghegan’s going to have to go, he tries an ankle pick, nothing, again, nothing. And Steiert is going to win 4-2
Match Score: Steiert wins, 4-2
Team score: UNI leads, 6-5

Moore with a really nice go-by and a body lock and took Wright down to his back, no NF points though, and Moore is working to turn him, Moore leads 3-2. Moore with a crossface and turns him but only gets a one count, 30 seconds left and they hang out on the edge to run out the period.
2nd: Wright on top to start, caution on him, Moore is up and out, 4-2 he leads. Collar tie, Moore tries for an ankle again, nothing. Moore battles in for the tie-up, nearly gets another ankle pick but Wright spins out. Moore pushing the pace now, Wright goes with a double leg try but Moore fights him off, they’re tied up now but Wright with a foot sweep and nearly puts Moore down but he fights it off and we’re still neutral. Wright with another T2 right at the end of the period, I mean Moore hit the mat and the buzzer sounded, Schwab is challenging. I have no idea how they’ll review this, there’s no clock on the stream video. Hopefully they have a different feed, but the review was quick and the call stands.
3rd: They go neutral to start and Moore with an ankle pick and gets around for the T2 right away, 6-4 he leads, and now Wright with an E1, 6-5 and Moore with the same move for another T2 and E1, 8-6 now with 1:20 left.

Lux with an arm bar, now a claw ride again as Climmons gets to his base, and Climmons gets a leg and gets behind him for the R2, but Lux hits a roll and gets the E1, so it’s 2-1 Climmons leads. They’re neutral, Lux trying to battle in for some underhooks, but can’t quite get there, and that’s the period.
3rd: Lux goes down to start the third, he’s up to a tripod, and then hits a switch to get out, 2-2. Lux right in on a shot but can’t finish, we’re neutral.

Not a lot going on, 30 seconds in we have a collar tie, Caldwell with a shot attempt, nothing. Again, not a lot going on, collar tie, breakup, now Dechow with a single leg but Caldwell with a leg of his own, but Dechow gets around for the T2. Sorry had to go let the dog out, but it appears I didn’t miss much as Dechow rode Caldwell out and we go to the 2nd.
2nd:Dechow is on bottom to start, he’s up and out, 3-0 he leads. Not a lot of action but now Dechow hits a single leg and finishes it for the T2, it’s 5-0 now. Caldwell really not doing a lot on bottom, kind of weird he hasn’t been hit for stalling, but Dechow rides him out, 5-0 to the 3rd.
