I think I saw tonight's order as HWT-125-etc. - is that correct? Or is it HWT then descending?

Thanks! Hoping to get home this evening before Levi wrestles.

I believe all of Brooks’ prior wins over Hidlay have been decisions.
Yeah, I know. I wasn't predicting a bonus but trying to make a case that if any of the finalists have a chance to bonus, he may be in the best position. All of them could be nail biters.

If kerk wants to score, he can get bonus. If Haines gets up early I think he could break Teemer's will.

I wasn't too sure of the situation from Starocci up to heavyweight. I would imagine there are also others, beside Facundo, who will fill in those other 4 weights.
Barr is going to be either 184 or 197, Facundo at 174, and Greg has another year

184 5th Place Match:
#6 seed Bernie Truax vs. #2 seed Isaiah Salazar (Minnesota) -- I'll use IS

Bernie hasn't had the most favorable matchups in this Session. Here's hoping his last college match is a good one.

Per 1
Not much thru 1st minute. Truax in on a low single and gets the TD, 3-0. He flattens IS, and throws in a boot. Truax with a nice ride. RT goes over 1 min. Stall warning on IS. End. RT @ 1:46 for Truax

Per 2
Truax takes bottom. He works to his feet, and is out in 12 sec, 4-0. Truax in on a single and gets behind for the TD, 7-0. Another good ride, and RT goes over 2 min. He came close to a tilt, and a stall call on IS makes it 8-0. Truax flattens IS once again. End. RT @ 2:48 for Truax

Per 3
IS takes neutral. After some time, RT is locked. Not much thru 1st minute. Truax with a low single, and gets behind for the TD, 11-0. And again he flattens IS as he has a boot in. He's trying to work an arm bar. Stoppage with 6 sec left for PD. End. With RT, it's a 12-0 MAJ for Bernie Truax!!!

Byers made some mention that Bernie had not ended his previous NCAAs with a win (I'd have to check). If that's the case, major kudos to him in his last college match.
He finished 4th three times, so he lost the 3-4 medal match each year!

Greg has another year if he wants it, but he took part in Senior Day activities with his family, so it’s anybody’s guess as to whether he comes back next year.

Teemer is very athletic. Levi MUST be quick. Levi must stay attacking is the key. Ware Teemer out with physicality

Are we recruiting an Elite HWT ? I do think he’ll come back with the right NIL package.

Yep. Would be great if he comes back but there hasn't been any information whether he'll stay or go.
