Nine, I repeat NINE(!) ASIJ wrestlers made it to the semi-finals today including (in opposite weight order): Dani, Zenon, Kieran, Rin, Egan, Michiru, Ira, Take, and Katsumi.
Ricky pinned his first foe from Seoul American before falling by tech and 14-9 decision to St. Marys and Kadena, respectively. Masa was on the short end of a tech against Edgren and got upset by Zama in the consolation bracket. Kyle didn't make the semifinals but weaved his way through the consolation bracket to survive until Day 2 where he'll join Dani, Michiru, and Katsumi in the running for 3rd. Kieran beat a favorite in his weight class from St. Mary's with a huge, huge takedown to win the 6-6 match via criteria but was injured in the semifinal match against Edgren and is out for the rest of the tournament. Going for Far East Champ tomorrow are Zenon, Rin, Egan, Ira, and Take.
