I think I spend more time watching DIY videos on YouTube these days than I do watching anything else on the platform. Why? My home renovation, which has entered its fourth month, is nearly complete. The basement was half finished, but now, we’ll have a legit, legal guest bedroom and I’ll have a dedicated studio and office space – tucked away from everyone. In 10 years, when I’ll have two teenage girls in the house, I’m going to probably need that hideaway – or speakeasy – if you will. So it’s time to learn how to build desks, build bars and accent walls. I’m Jason Bryant, and I’m also building quite the repository of podcasts, this is just one of them, it’s Short Time Shots, a mostly daily look at the day’s scores and more from around the world of wrestling.

Dual Meets:

* In the second head-to-head dual between teams ranked in the Top 25 this season, No. 17 North Carolina edged No. 19 Michigan by a coincidentally similar 19-17 score. Each team won five matches, but the big difference were three additional bonus points earned at 174 pounds where Clay Lautt cradled up Reece Hughes and got the fall in the first period. North Carolina’s Austin Headlee made his move up two weight classes to 157 pounds a successful one, defeating highly touted redshirt freshman Will Lewan 5-2. Michigan’s Mason Parris had a chance to give the Wolverines the win, needing a fall at heavyweight, but managed a 4-0 win over Andrew Gunning.

* At a sold out Saegertown High School in Northwest Pennsylvania, No. 7 Wisconsin improved to 5-0 win a 28-15 win over the host Fighting Scots of Edinboro. The Badgers picked up falls from Seth Gross at 133 pounds, Tristan Moran at 141 and Evan Wick at 165 pounds. It was a homecoming, albeit a short trip, for Edinboro’s Cody Mulligan, a Saegertown native, who fell to Tyler Dow 5-2 at 184 pounds.

* In Division III, Western New England jumped out to a 23-4 lead over Norwich and ended up holding off a late rally to pick up a 26-19 win. While Norwich lost, give their Instagram a follow @cadetwrestling. It’s totally worth it if they post stuff like they did tonight from their duals. Quality stuff.

* Bluefield, the only NAIA school in Virginia, picked up a home win over Truett McConnell 28-19. Joseph Dudley and Creed Lumpp picked up falls for the Rams at 157 and 165 to help lift Jason Waelti’s squad to the win.

* The Muskegon Duals are going on in Michigan and the club team from Grand Valley State picked up wins against Trine and Olivet, while Niagara Community College picked off the first-year NAIA program at Rochester (Mich.) and host Muskegon.

* Late Thursday: Division II San Francisco State, led by head coach and past three-time Northwestern All-American Jason Welch, spoiled Vanguard’s first home dual in 39 years as the Gators topped the Lions 39-11. Vanguard is coached by California native and former UNI Panther Caleb Flores. In Ashland, Oregon, No. 2 Menlo topped Southern Oregon 32-12 as the pair of women’s teams in the NAIA’s Cascade Conference did battle. Had one correction to make, Cerritos beat Palomar last night, not Rio Hondo. Santa Ana had the 29-18 win over Rio Hondo out in California. I also said “Fresno State” instead of Fresno City. Meh, it was after midnight.
