Some of the pairings yesterday

Dean Peterson with Kale Petersen
Drake with DeLuca
Nasir with DeSanto
Block with Parco
Williams with Caliendo
VV with Otoguro
PK went with a couple guys. Started with Marinelli
Angelo with Robles
Gabe with Endene
Ludington with Buchanan
Kueter with Fleshman
Does this mean Keuter is gonna be able to wrestle in November? I thought his recovery would take longer.

- Ben has put on good weight. Maybe 20 pounds. Will likely always be light for the weight class. Ben was pissed to be ranked 6th or whatever. Motivation and chip on his shoulder. I didn't see any limitations on Ben's workout; that surprised me.
- Spencer hasn't wrestled with Dean yet. Dean is crazy strong and not someone they wanted rolling with Spencer prior to worlds. Their time will come.
- Nasir has really impressed. There is no ceiling to what he can accomplish.
- Coach really likes Ludington. Called him a "stud!!" Called him out specifically because he was in front of us (not meaning to exclude anyone else).
- Per Spencer, Angelo's athleticism gives him a unique ability to level change and is what makes him a freak. No one can match Angelo when he gets low in his stance, attacks and then drops levels with attacks coming from either side. Thinks it will come down to Angelo and Max.
- Per Spencer, Drake has taken it to another level. He has been a stud for a long time, but this is even another level up.

Appreciate the insight! Hope to hear more as we inch closer to the season! I’m excited to see a healthy Block and a bigger Jordan Williams with a bigger gas tank!

Really hope they make “wrestle offs” more accessible this year. Or at least let some insiders in there.
