2017 Paris International Results
Seven NCAA titles on one mat. Kyle Dake came out on top, teching Alex Dieringer in the 74kg finals of the 4th Paris International tournament. 

Dake scored early and often, hitting a nice high crotch to a low finish for the first takedown. Ringer got in on the next shot, but Dake worked into a crackdown and hit a crotch lift to take a 4-0 lead. Right before the end of the first, Dake ran through a double and hit a lace on the edge to lead 8-0 heading into the break. A final Dake shot was fought off by Ringer, but finished with second effort for the 10-0 tech. Watch the match here.

That wasn't the only all-American finals, as the weight above will feature David Taylor against Richard Perry. Like Dake, Taylor used three techs to come out of the bottom half and make the finals. Perry was on the top side and won 11-0 and then 12-1 in order to do battle against Taylor.

David Taylor won 8-5 over Richard Perry in that final. Perry had the lead early on a shot clock point, and then traded exposures to make it 3-2. Perry would get another stepout point in the second, before Taylor got two straight takedowns to take a 6-4 lead. In the final minute, Perry got a stepout and Taylor finished the match off with a takedown to win the 86kg crown.

Jayson Ness made the finals at 61kg to round out the Americans going for gold this morning. Ness won his quarterfinal 7-4 over Tony Ramos, then beat Iurii Siemakin of the host nation in the semis. Ness fell 9-2 to Shota Phartenadze (GEO) go get silver, and Ramos won his bronze match by forfeit.

Zach Rey beat Bobby Telford 1-1 on criteria as they traded shot clock points in the 125kg bronze medal match. Matt Brown takes on Dan Vallimont in all Penn State match for bronze at 74kg.
