Ah nice.
One piece of advice is to adjust the triangle from your shin and not your foot. There are a multitude of reasons for it ranging from not straining your own ankle, being able to adjust it easier by grabbing something "sturdy," and if you need to quickly adjust your hips you can easily slide your "clamping leg" off while still holding it at the shin.
Other than that, good job. I train with your ref, Alex Hodi. He's a beast, man.

Here's The Rest
Overall, I had 6 fights and my last was for third place in my weight class, and I lost. Live and learn, hopefully next time I won't have to fight my way out of the losers bracket.
Good matches! Congrats!!
Little (non expert) piece of advice, for the armbar (the one you did from the mount) it is most of the times better not to cross the legs, maybe someone with more experience can vouch for this.
