Agreed, the ladies did show a lot of competitive fire. That said I would never go see a woman’s wrestling match on my own. I just have zero interest in women’s sports unless my child or a relative or a friend was personally competing in it. They’re just a less good version of the male version of the sport.

I'm gonna call him "The Program". It's as if his coaches input what he needs to do to beat his guy and like a machine he goes out and just does it.
Lilledahl had another year of U20 also if he wanted.
Are we witnessing “The Greatest Generation” when it comes to young USA wrestling talent? Certainly seems that way.
I think the data is pretty clear that the large majority of men would agree, even if many of them won't openly admit it.
I tried to check out the Iowa site and it appears as a pay site only, how can we enjoy the season as much if we’re forced to pay $120 to well you know. Is there a GoFundMe for Johnstonsteel so he could keep us apprised of the goings on over there.
Women’s wrestling is going to save men’s wrestling.
I fully support women sports in the fact that I agree that should be an option for them, but for me most sports watching stops when I lose the affiliation. I’m a Penn State graduate and fan. I watch Penn State football and wrestling. I honestly watch very little professional sports these days.
The thing that bugs me is that we’re told that we kinda have to like this stuff every now and then from certain folk. Whether it’s the sport of soccer in general or even worse women’s soccer. Or WNBA or whatever. I actually enjoy the traditional Olympic sports for both sexes, track and field, gymnastics, and weightlifting.
in most cases, those sports involved a time, distance, or wait. Obviously gymnastics is scored somewhat objectively, and the events vary between the sexes, but I still find them both very enjoyable.
At first I thought, huh? But then I realized there’s some potential for salt expansion in the youth area so it makes a little bit more sense now that I think about it.
Just his discipline in stance alone makes him a walking textbook diagram for kids.
And from what I witnessed with the 57kg class, Luke would have been our sixth champion. That would have created a record that would be very tough to beat!

SlipperyPete is going to ring up bonus points on here like PSU wrestlers at Nationals!
Well, you know. According to the genius that is HR, all Cael can do is recruit.
Penn State and Iowa combined to win 5 medals leading the way in the USA winning team gold. Playing field officially leveled. Good job Bob!!!

Welcome back! This San Diego wrestling fan sure could have used your play by play skills as I stayed up most the night the last 2 days trying to give live updates on the matches. I now humbly pass you the baton and sink back into message board obscurity
Dani Nugent and her sister Marisol single handedly made women's wrestling a thing at my high school. they could wipe the floor with some of the guys I knew on the team when I was there 15 years ago! very cool to see
You ever leave again...it's to the COMPHY CHAIR FOR YOU!
But, would he kick a pregnant woman out for a buck?
Nope, San Diego. I stayed up to do the PBP for all you poor souls who frequent this establishment!
Not too shabby of a group!
