184 Final: #1 seed Carter Starocci vs. #2 seed Max McEnelly (Minnesota)
I'll use MM for McEnelly
This should be interesting. MM is undefeated as a RS freshman, and I don't believe they've met before.
Per 1
Damn, MM is built like a fire hydrant. I guess they'll each try to bull the other one. No shots thru 1 min. MM kind of shoots from way outside, and nothing. MM in on a single, spins behind, and gets the TD, 0-3. The 1st TD CStar has given up this season. CStar out quickly, 3-1. OOB with 0:40 left. Cstar shoots a double, to a single, and good D by MM. End. RT @ 0:05 for MM
Per 2
CStar takes bottom. He's to his feet, and MM cuts him, 2-3. RT not a factor (10 sec for MM). CStar sort of shoots, nothing. Then MM shoots, closer, but nothing. CStar in on a single on the edge, CStar trying to pull him back in, MM tries to dive out, and then CStar gets the TD as they go OOB with 0:39 left. Challenge brick thrown. They think CStar's foot is off the mat. Calls confirmed, so it's 5-3. MM to his feet, and they are OOB with 0:33 left. MM works up, tries to turn, but CStar stays with him, and they go OOB with 17 sec left. MM works to his feet, and spins and turns for the esc with 4 sec left, 5-4. End. RT @ 25 sec fro CStar
Per 3
MM takes bottom. He works up, and peels off the hands for the esc, 5-5. RT not a factor (31 sec for CStar). They are bulling into each other, but no shots. 1 min left. CStar shoots, and they go OOB with 29 sec left, and a stall warning on MM (legit). MM shoots, nothing. End. RT @ 0:31 for CStar
SV-1
No shots thru 30 sec. MM sort of shoots, and CStar sort of shoots, nothing. 30 sec left. CStar more active now. MM shoots, and CStar with a quick TD on a counter. 8-5, DEC, and CStar finishes 1st. He is a 3X B1G Champion
Wow

Wow
It hasn’t stopped yet!That's usually considered a good thing; a necessity!
I think we can pump the brakes on the Angelo Ferrari winning 4 titles. That kid is a freak. Somehow CS found a way, as usual.
McEnelly is going to be some kind of wrestler. Need to keep an eye on him.
McEnelly is huge for 184. Must cut a ton of weight. First Guy that made Carter look undersized. When Carter graduates, there will be some studs at 184 next year.
Bo Bassett must be excited to join Iowa for that Iowa brand of wrestling.
He can not possibly think that coaching staff gives him the best chance of maximizing his potential. That HAS to be about the money.
Why is that name so familiar? I remember N ED Ruth wrestling. Perhaps at PSU
Bo will have a big checking account, but he’ll stall in spending it.
Iowa still has not had a 197-pound champ. Seems hard to believe, but is true.
He (dad) made a business decision that may stunt his development.
For the second year in a row if memory serves.
Gable is unreal. I’ve never seen a dude as big and strong with that kind of explosiveness, speed and quickness. It’s insane.
285 Final: #2 seed Greg Kerkvliet vs. #1 seed Gable Stevenson (Minnesota)
I'll use GS for Stevenson
Per 1

GS with a double and spins behind for the TD with 30 sec left, 0-3. OOB with 18 sec left. First TD that Kerk has given up this season. End. RT @ 0:33 sec for GS
Per 2
Kerk takes bottom. Kerk works to his feet, returned, sits out, to his feet, lifted, and escapes when returned. OOB with 1:36 left, 1-3. GS nearly with a low single. Kerk sort of powers in, but GS powered back for the TD, 1-6. Kerk works to his feet, and is escorted OOB with GS, with 0:43 left. Kerk to his feet, and GS cuts him, 2-6. Kerk reaches, nothing. End. RT @ 1:34 for GS
Per 3
