Like last Friday night, Penn State wrestling star Tyler Kasak took care of business, and also like last Friday night, Kasakโ€™s win featured a blood timeout.

It was quite as dramatic as last week, when Kasakโ€™s bloody face helped to create what might be one of the most iconic images in Penn State wrestling history.

But itโ€™s still worth keeping an eye on.

The latest stoppage resulted from an accidental head but courtesy of Michiganโ€™s Zack Mattan.

When blood time happened, Kasak was up 6-2 and ended up getting a 7-2 win.

Penn State is hoping that medical stoppages donโ€™t become a theme with Kasak. Right now, heโ€™s rolling. Kasak has won 21 consecutive matches and, health permitting, doesnโ€™t figure to stop anytime soon.
