Hendrickson and Hamiti Jr. On to the Semifinals at US Open Wrestling

The U.S. Open Wrestling Senior Men’s Freestyle Division got after it on Friday in Las Vegas with a number of Oklahoma State and Cowboy Regional Training Center connected wrestlers being involved. We all know about recent NCAA individual champions Dean Hamiti Jr. and (Captain America) Wyatt Hendrickson and they both advanced to tonight’s semifinals. 

Below are the results and the schedule for tonight in Las Vegas. Interesting note in that Cowboys and former Bixby wrestler and football standout got the opportunity in the quarterfinal to meet up with Olympic and World Champion Kyle Dake. Quite an education for Robb. He lost a 12-1 tech fall, but it was Kyle Dake!

There was no quarterfinal match listed for Wyatt Hendrickson at 125kg but in the Round of 16 here was the result. Wyatt Hendrickson, CRTM over Devon Dawson, NIR (TF 10-0 (0:55))
