CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

MATCH WINNER
Cassie vs. Trish Trish

Match #1: Charlee vs. Simoan.  Favorite Simoan won the first fall with a scissor/choke combo.  Charlee, determined not to lose was able to bend Simoan's ankle when Simoan had a rear scissor hold.  This technique was so effective that it actually injured Simoan's ankle, preventing her from continuing.  Second fall to Charlee, Simoan unable to continue. Pics In Members Area.

Match #2: Alexandra vs. Erick.  Erick did not do much other than tap out very quickly to a Kimura from Alexandra's guard.  The second fall saw Alexandra get behind him and submit him with a calf crush.  The third fall saw Alexandra get behind him and submit him with a classic rear choke.  Erick was either overwhelmed by skill and athleticism or he simply did not know what to do. Pics In Members Area.

Match#3: Cassie vs. Paul.  Paul was way too slow.  Cassie used her High School wrestling skill and quickness to get behind him and clamp the scissor/choke combo to tap him out.  Second fall saw Cassie use quickness to get behind him and quickly clasp on a figure4 headscissor to advance to next round.  Pics In Members Area.

Match#4: Katrina vs. Nikki.  Nikki has lost some weight suffering from the flu and was seemingly thin.  Katrina used her extremely long legs to secure a bodyscissor and seemed very calm throughout the entire match.  Katrina won the first 2 falls to easily advance to next round.  The video will include an interview with katrina at the end of this match.

Match#5: Trish vs. Charlee.  Trish replaced Alexandra who was advised by the doctor not to engage in strenuous activities resulting from knee injury (soccer training).  Trish stepped in to face Charlee in what turned out to be the toughest and longest match of the entire tournament.  Only one fall was won in this match and the winner had to be determined through a time limit.

Match#6: Cassie vs. Katrina.  This was a classic with the tall jiu-jitsu beginner Katrina vs. the shorter stronger High School wrestler Cassie.  From the start, Cassie dominated Katrina while pinning her down and attempting a headlock submission whilst Katrina attempted headscissors and triangles which did not work.  Cassie gained a submission via a choke and during the second fall Katrina was accidentally elbowed in the eye which caused severe bruising.  After asking Katrina if she wanted to continue at a later time, she exclaimed: "She is out of my league, I forfeit".  Pics In Members Area.

Final Match: Just when it seemed Cassie was on her way to another easy victory, Trish turned the tables.  The match started with Cassie dominating and winning the first fall with a cross body suffocation submission.  The second fall saw Cassie make the classic wrestler mistake(giving her back) with Trish capitalizing and going for a rear scissor choke combo.  The hold lasted almost 5 minutes before Cassie tapped.  The final fall saw Trish using a mount and choke combo from the top to secure the win.  This was the best match of the entire tournament.  The pics are in the members section and the video will be available soon.  Congratulations Trish!!
