The Tap cancer out tournement was today, 10th planet hartford went to it. Congrats to our coach Mike Seabrook for winning first place going 2-0 for the day winning by a submission and points(The person Mike beat wants to join 10th planet now haha), Ken Markwat for going 1-1 and placing 2nd in his division, Jason Thingpen went 2-1 winning 1 match by submission and the other by points placing 2nd. Congrats to all of them, and I had to go in the adults divison because there was no kids or teens. I only had 1 match with some guy who had atleast 5 years on me and was bigger. My match started out with him kind of pushing me around using his stregnth, I shot in for a single leg takedown switched to a double leg and got him to the ground. He recovered guard very quick, and went up for a triangle. I escaped his triangle and we ended up scarmbling then I went back for a heel hook and might of been able to finish but i remember there were so many rules on leglocks and i did not want to get disqualified so i let go. He got on top of me in full mount and i shrimped out and got him in half guard. I threw on the lockdown and got the whip up, as i went to sweep him i got sloppy and he caught me in a darce and tapped me out. I was dissapointed in my loss because I was repping 10th planet and went 0-1 for the day but later on I did realize that he was alot bigger, older, and stronger then me. This loss is gonna motivate me to train harder though.
