Gotta say I was surprised to see him actually wrestle a match at 197, but props to you for calling that one.He was 179 and change. I remember people blasting me when I said we could see Gabe at 197 in a pinch
***** Hawks vs Mocs *****
- Thread starter Sett1997
- Start date
Very impressed with Gabes character, coming back and being a team player and doing whatever is asked. Young man keeps it up his big stage is coming. Sky is the limit.
Feldman vs Trumble on BTN+ right now, should be a good one
And the truth is you could basically say the same thing about Gabe. Like PK, he wasn't given the keys to the car the minute he got on campus. Things didn't work out like he liked at first but he's stuck in there and has kept working. Big kudos to both young men. Somewhat similar situations where their character means a lot.
I just knew Endene would need a break this season and why not use Gabe the only other option is Harvey. And if Gabe is doing things right you reward him with matches
Good opportunity to focus on putting more points on the board. For the most part we succeeded. Four guys scored 12+ points in the first period. Only Cruz and Fleshman failed to score less than 2 pts in first.
Even Peterson, who almost always starts slow and relies on counter-defense, pushed the pace and got the TF. (Note: Flynn is good but must be cutting too much weight, as he was stalled out against Utah Valley and almost stalled out against Peterson. But credit to Peterson for capitalizing on it.)
Biggest fail was Bailey. He had no interest in doing more than the bare minimum to win, and it's BORING to watch. Terry's coaching guidance was surely, "Go out fast and put points on the board." He's clearly not listening. Challenge for Terry. Meanwhile, big thumbs down.

Someone other than Spooner please remind me, why is Chittum not wrestling?
Well great first period for Bailey and then a whole lotta nothing. Wins 11-2.
Ryder block nasty cowcatcher
Block, not to get ahead of myself. He looks like he has the tools to be a future major threat. Is he a redshirt freshman or sophomore?
He's turning into a badass very quickly. The new weight suits him well.
That's awesome! I love watching him wrestle.
Another tech pin for Mikey.
Angelo is not going to be a bonus machine it doesn't appear as a young wrestler. His wrestling and tactical plan and skills are off the charts though. Hasn't been taken down this year. Kyle Dake type wrestler.
Don't blast me, that's how Dake wrestled folk though. Angelo is just a redshirt freshman, lots of similarities in their style.
Dake even does the knee thing to this day.

Entertaining evening of wrestling.
The highest-ranked guy on Utah Valley team was 149 (#11) and Block pinned him in the first period.
Caliendo also looked great.

I believe he has never given up a TD in college. Unreal wrestling IQ and athleticism.
Evans didn’t wrestle at 149 for them. But other than agree some good wrestling.
Tough to take someone down when they drop to both knees and slide back to the edge.
I bet you spend a lot of time on your knees
he transferred when he saw Iowa and a Ferrari was on the schedule. Chatt did his *** dirty scheduling this.
Just published my recap for tonight's duals:
#4 Iowa sweeps "Uncivil War" – winning 16/20 bouts to close 2025 - On3

He's taking a RS year
