Oh, what a day. Sound the celebration music.
Max takes the title at 184 with a 10-3 victory over Boise State's Kirk Smith.
UPDATE: This was a great moment between Max and his brother, Ben. Pardon the crappy iPhone quality on the video:

fail.
but such a win.
"As loud as the ovations are for big threes or for thunderous dunks, some of the biggest roars you hear at Mizzou Arena these days are for steals, shot clock violations, and forcing opponents into timeouts in their own backcourt. Just as Anderson has crafted himself a team built on defensive intensity, he's built himself a fan base that echoes that same value system." -
Fantastic.
Max with a convincing win over a guy who was described as being “dominant” on their tournament live blog

Way to go Max!
I usually don’t watch wrestling but I knew when Askren would be wrestling, switched to ESPN and it was just a great performance.

I want it played at my funeral.

He should have moved down in weight class like The Beef suggested a long time ago!
:-)
What a week from Max, and what a great moment for the Askren boys. We’re losing a lot of personality from the squad now that both of them are done.

What a great match!
Dominated the first period, and simply held him off the remaining time.
espn360 gets awesome points for me, as I was able to go back and watch the match after it was over.
