2024 NCAA Wrestling Championships Thread

[Old Number Nine]

Jordan really came out and wrestled and wins by tech. If he All Americans this year he could really be something next year. He has jumped a level this year. Daton wrestled poorly again but won. Spratley wrestled tough but if you don't get a takedown you usually lose. Spratley could be real good next year if he All Americans also.

Everytime I see him wrestle I'm thinking; "Kenny Monday"

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

O'Toole is wrestling elite right now. Fun to watch him.

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

How does Izzy not figure that out there!

 

[Okie_Pat]

How many points did we score at last years tournament?

 

[Rdcldad]

l

Williams and plott have really stand out so far…Willams fills out and 149 clears out, he could be a serious title contender next season

joy to watch kid is super slick

just needs to increase horsepower

 

[Pokes1988]

Olejnik 0-2 on shots, 0-0 after 1.

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

O'toole with his 3rd fall in to get to semis. Impressive stuff

 

[Rdcldad]

carr and o’tool in semis is a criminal

gotta protect the penn st

 

[Old Number Nine]

1-1 heading to SV for Spratley.

I just noticed that if Spratley had won he would have been the highest seed in the Semi's and now I think he is the 5th highest in the Cons. (1,2,3,5)

 

[Pokes1988]

1-0 after 2....NO IDEA WHY they aren't hitting Heller with stalling....He's done NOTHING.

 

[Pokes1988]

Olejnik with a late takedown and back points, wins 7-1.

Annoying that Stalemates are so subjective...Heller should've been hit with 3-4 of them...

 

[Pokes1988]

Teague Travis on Mat2... 0-0 after 1...

 

[Old Number Nine]

Olejnik with a total slop win, but it's a win

 

[Pokes1988]

Travis with the reversal on bottom, up 2-0 after 2.

 

[Old Number Nine]

Travis down in 2nd and a reversal; 2-0

Xerban takes neutral in 3rd

Travis with a great counter TD: 5-0... and the win.

Nice match

 

[Pokes1988]

Teague with a good counter to a shot, takes the dub 5-0.

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

Good stuff from Teague.

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

I would gladly take Bianchi from Little Rock or Miller from App St. as a transfer for 165. Maybe even Thompson from Ohio.

 

[Old Number Nine]

Starocci on 1 & 1/2 legs... amazing beat #1 seed

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

Starocci "upsets" Lewis lol. Simma (28 seed) from UNI up 5-0 on Griffith with :19 left in 2nd

TF Welsh from Ohio state takes down Ruth. Bummer, I like Ruth.

7 seed from Columbia upsets DeVos to make the semis. Woah

Griffith comes back and beats Simma 8-7 with a takedown with about 22 seconds left.

 

[skylinepoke]

How can the PSU wrestlers be so much bigger than the others in their class. Starocci looks 15-20 pounds be gger than Lewis and Messenbrink made Amine look small.

 

[Cowboy1989]

Great job Izzak and Travis. Our guys were pushing the pace and taking shots.

 

[Pokes1988]

Plott up on Mat 5.

 

[Okie_Pat]

We are getting the wins we need just not scoring any bonus pts. That’s clearly the difference between us and PSU. They go out and not just win but dominate.

 

[Old Number Nine]

Looked like Starocci would have to beat the #28 seed to make the finals but Simma leading 5-0 at the start of the 3rd just rolled into a little ball to lose 8-6

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

Great job Izzak and Travis. Our guys were pushing the pace and taking shots.

It almost would appear that being aggressive on offense is a good thing! lol

 

[StillyBoy08]

I am so sick of Fix wrestling not to lose. This guy should be pinning/teching his way through nationals at this point, aside from Vito. I have zero faith he will win it all

 

[Rdcldad]

griffith walked sama down
great match

 

[Okie_Pat]

Fix just couldn’t finish this morning. I don’t think he was wrestling tight.

This Plott vs Traux match has me a little worried. Hoping Plott comes out swinging.

 

[Chasingthirty-five]

How is Patrick Kennedy a SO, I swear he has been there 6 years.

 

[Pokes1988]

Plott gives up a takedown in the first 10 seconds, down 3-1 at the start.

 

[Pokes1988]

Plotts get a takedown. Up 4-3, injury timeout on Truax.

 

[Old Number Nine]

I really hope that wasn't an illegal hold. It wasn't called as such

 

[Pokes1988]

Plott chose down after injury time and gets the escape....5-3 after 1.

Almost closed out with a TD.

 

[Pokes1988]

Quick escape forPlott to start.... 6-3

 

[Pokes1988]

Scores another takedown. 9-3 Plott.

 

[Old Number Nine]

9-3 Plott in the 2nd, 3 TD 3 escapes

 

[Pokes1988]

Truax with an escape. 9-4 Plott.

 

[Pokes1988]

9-4 after 2. Plott on top. Should be close to RT.

 

[Pokes1988]

Truax chose Neutral, got taken down by Plott. 12-4
