Easy quarterfinal win for Darian over Guatemala with a tech in the first period. Not sure if he will meet Gilman on his side of the bracket.

Re: Darian at Pan Am games
Darian with a solid win over Canada to face Gilman in the finals. Nice job!
Re: Darian at Pan Am games
Darian gets the silver at the Pan Ams... lbtf 11-0 to Gilman.
(Nice try but, will DC ever score a point against Gilman ever? The now Nit WC member just seem to overwhelm his opponents. )

>>>>>>> Gilman's loss in the Olympics was actually when he turned the corner. Next stop World champ. Like Yogi said "90% of it is half mental."
So losing to the reigning World title holder, by any score, is what it is. Taking home a Pan Am silver medal is quite an accomplishment.

Darian losing to Gilman at 57kg (likely 60+kg) is like Bobby Weaver Losing to Gene Mills at 118 (probably 130+) in 81 EIWA.

Lizak weighed 138 lbs when he lost to Darian in the 2018 national finals.
Re: Darian at Pan Am games
which continues to prove how big an upset it was to beat Gillie in the ncaa semis, especially that dominant senior season; and how well coached those bouts were. Gilman's bonus win rate was off the charts as a senior (90%?), giving 'end zone dance celebration' quotes after some bouts; in his dual vs Lizak, Gilman got down 8-0 in 1st pd then just crushed him after that, WBF. I attended Darian's 8-0 Scuffle loss to Lizak and confess my pessimism about beating either, let alone both. Good thing I had no role and kept my mouth shut.

In one way, it reminds me of The Miracle On Ice. The match/game everyone remembers is the semi-final!drd5748 wrote: ↑Mon May 09, 2022 10:19 am which continues to prove how big an upset it was to beat Gillie in the ncaa semis, especially that dominant senior season; and how well coached those bouts were.
