Guest Guest Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Glenn, who entered the NCAA Championships as the defending national champion at 197 lbs., was cut short in his title defense, losing a 7-5 decision to Wynn Michalak from Central Michigan. Glenn took an early lead in the match off a single leg takedown at 0:27 but an escape by Michalak shortly after moved the score to 2-1. Michalak then scored a takedown of his own to go ahead 2-3 but Glenn quickly escaped to tie the score again at three a piece. Glenn began the second on top but fell behind again with a reversal by Michalak, 3-5. An escape by Glenn closed the deficit to 4-5 where the third period would start. In the third, Glenn started on bottom and escaped at 5:33 to even the match at five. The score remained tied until the final moments of the period when off a restart with under 20 seconds left Glenn took a shot and was caught underneath Michalak. Michalak used his position to gain a hold on Glenn's leg and as time expired the referee signaled a two-point takedown, giving the match to Michalak, 7-5. Glenn will now face local rival and seventh seed Hudson Taylor from Maryland in Saturday morning's round of six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
