Brooks looked HUGE at worlds. I don’t see any issues strength-wise with him making the move to 197. This lineup is gonna be lights out. Our opponents better get their points early, like at 125 (and good luck there with Howard in the line-up). It’s gonna be tough sledding after that for everyone facing us.

It won’t matter. PSU will be 8-2, at least in any dual. Most likely 9-1 or 10-0! All Star lineup like never before if they all wrestle at the same time. What’s the minimum to make the B1G and NCAA tournaments? Like a pitcher, you need more tread on the tire at the end.

I'm not sure there is a minimum number of matches to enter the B1G tournament. Only one wrestler per weight class and it may just be a coaches decision. The B1G has a certain number of automatic qualifiers to NCAAs. So, even if the number of matches to qualify for B1G is more than 0 it might not be much more. Although less matches/results would most likely impact the seed.

So Byers isn't doing radio? I don't see it.

It's not listed (a PSU radio stream) on GoPSUsports.com.

@ItalianLion shows a radio broadcast of it on WQWK 1450 AM. I was just searching, and can't seem to find a schedule for today for WQWK, so I can't verify that his spreadsheet is accurate.

David Taylor is ok as an analyst but he need a good play-by-play guy and Pyles isn’t it. It was a very rough start to the commentary. It felt like two left feet.

And Janiack techs Savidge in 29 seconds. Immediate TD to leg laces. BTW the ladies are freestyle.

Ramos won 10-2 but that was pure desperation by Noto that gave Ramos the final 6 points.

Mcghonagle over Latona (5) 7-5. He had a reversal in TB to secure the win. Latona tweaked his knee in the third as well.

McGonagle (Lehigh) over Latona (VT), 7-5 TB2. McGonagle with a reversal when he was on bottom in TB1 was the difference.

McNeil is ranked 3 at 141lbs. He wins 4-2. Beau Bartlett is ranked 2. Both are Wyoming Seminary products. I imagine former teammates. Could we eventually see a top ranked battle between the two at NCAAs?

Could but Real Woods is currently ranked #1. I think Bartlett bests him convincingly this year. Bartlett look’s really good.

SVN wins 4-1 with 1:39 in riding time, makes it 5-1.

The escape and then the late TD and suddenly it is 4-0 going into the third and with SVN on top, it is a tough row to hoe.

I am digging the 3 pt TD.
