Short Time Shots: Wartburg remembers Kenny Anderson (11-20-19)

November 20, 2019

Don’t think I’ll be using that AirPod/Backpack Studio connection in the future, especially in the garage. My wife took slight exception to the note about the noise, but after nine and a half years of marriage, I still like to poke a little fun. I’m Jason Bryant, and this is Short Time Shots, a mostly daily look at the scores and more from around the world of wrestling. Anyone else hate Comcast? Not going down that rabbit hole.  Dual Meets:  No Division I action, but enough to chat about to make you want to order a 20-piece Chicken McNugget meal at 3:29 a.m. and ask them to put every sauce in the bag! Wait, sorry, flashbacks. And yes, I knew that in 2005, McDonalds on Columbia Avenue in Lancaster, PA started serving breakfast at 3:30 a.m. There’s only one way to discover that - the hard way.m I’ll start in D3, where third-ranked Wartburg remembered its fallen three-time national champion Kenny “Kennfucios” Anderson on Wednesday and then pounded Simpson (Iowa) 47-3. Kris Rumph, the guy who beat Iowa’s Gavin Teasdale over the weekend, yeah, he won by fall at 133. The win ran Wartburg’s win streak in the American Rivers Conference is now 215.  St. Cloud State, which should be ranked No. 1 when the next Division II rankings come out, extended its win streak to 52 in a row and its conference dual win streak to 69 in a row after shutting out Southwest Minnesota State 42-0 at Halenbeck Hall in St. Cloud. Top-ranked James Barzowski topped Nathan Moore 10-3 at 157 pounds.  Shippensburg knocked off Division III Waynesburg 35-12. The Red Raiders notched three falls, with the fastest coming from DeAndre Reed at 149 in 1:02. Northern State beat its Division III opponent, Concordia-Moorhead, 24-15 just across the Red River in Moorhead, Minnesota. Billy Holtan, son of longtime Mat Talk Podcast Network patron Bill Holton, picked up a major decision at 165 pounds in the Wolves’ winning effort. Going back to PA, Kutztown defeated Millersville 24-13. Moving south, Division II Belmont Abbey beat NAIA Bluefield 34-11 and Coker beat Truett McConnell 39-12 Division III Scranton won six bouts to knock off Division II East Stroudsburg 24-15 to win a Dundie. Don’t know what that is? That’s what she said. In keeping it D3, UW-La Crosse beat UW-Eau Claire 25-12 and UW-Whitewater beat UW-Platteville 27-12. Castleton beat Norwich 31-17 in New England. In the NAIA, Wayland Baptist beat Central Christian 45-12, Briar Cliff beat Northwestern (Iowa) 24-16. Lourdes beat Division III Defiance 29-14. I really should come up with more puns with Defiance.  On the women’s side, Oklahoma City beat Texas Wesleyan 41-7 with Cierra Foster picking up a fall at 143 pounds in just 20 seconds.  GET A FREE MONTH OF PODCAST HOSTING WITH LIBSYN There are approximately 66 active wrestling podcasts out there, with 20 of them on the Mat Talk Podcast Network.
