What a day. From 11 am EST to 10 pm EST, with just a slight break in the middle there was wrestling on. It was glorious.

Friday-Sunday, October 9-11

With so much wrestling on today there were plenty of great matches. Here are the 11 you must go back and watch.

Anthony Valencia vs Hayden Hidlay

This one had twitter buzzing.

Many mistakes made on my part throughout that match but I just want to take this time to apologize for absolutely none of my actions. Just really not willing to let up full speed while going out of bounds. Wouldn’t expect the person I am wrestling to treat me any differently.

I asked the ref and he said the push out is erased because of my behavior.

That was one of the most violent matches I've ever seen

When the 2pt threshold is different on the boundary line, and you reward dake points 2/3 of the way into the next mat, you have to expect guys to wrestle onto the concrete when the whistle isn’t blown. https://t.co/36meOfOczX

Sometimes it's 4 on continuation.

Sometimes you give up a penalty point.

Can't say I understand. #HidlayValencia https://t.co/OJqt85GRFH

Anthony Valencia vs Elroy Perkin

Why not back to back Valencia matches? Not as much controversy in this one, but even more points.

David Carr vs Ryan Deakin

This one lived up to the hype. It went down to the wire and came within inches of being a different result.

Dylan Ragusin vs Darian Cruz

The most unlikely of finalists, Dylan Ragusin, has kind of stolen the show in Coralville. The Michigan freshman is more known for his Greco-Roman skills, he’s a Cadet and Junior World Team member, but the Illinois native is getting it done in freestyle this weekend. His closest match of the tournament was this one point match with NCAA champion Darian Cruz.

Kannen Storr vs Earl Hall

A battle of former Cyclones. Hall was up 13-4, one point away from a tech fall, before Storr rattled off 14-straight points to mount a massive comeback.

Welcome to 76 kg Victoria Francis. Bell put up a good fight, but it was ultimately two big four pointers that made the difference for Francis.

Andrew Alirez didn’t come to Senior Nationals to get the dust off. He came to win. He’s looking as good as ever and in tomorrow night’s finals after this huge win over Joey McKenna.

Vito Arujau vs Jack Mueller

We were robbed of this one at Beat the Streets, but these two more than made up for it today at Senior Nationals. In a match very similar to their first one back in 2017, Vito pulled away in an exciting one.

Forrest Molinaro vs Skylar Grote

Props to Skylar Grote. She wrestled well all day and was giving two-time World Team member Molinaro all she could handle before Snowflake went beast bode.

Brody Teske vs Jeremiah Reno

A random backside match turned into quite the shootout at 57 kg. These two put up a combined 37 points. That is the most of any match that I could find today.
