Ok I’m cuing up a future post to the effect that pay may win 3 straight big ten duals by n aggregate score of 150-0.
Penn State - Maryland '26 Match Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
SVN had more takedowns in that bout (against the #7 wrestler) than Iowa in its last two dual meets combined
Shayne, can you spot Young a 7-0 lead and win by tech fall without getting a turn?
Byers said it ended up 31-15 after lots of mathematics involved
Didn’t Young get a TD on SVN? Or rather, didn’t Young make the mistake of getting a TD on SVN?
Didn’t Brown take down Van Ness
It was interesting listening him and the stat guy trying to figure it out at the break. Like a who’s on first routine
Through five matches the least a Penn State wrestler scored is 15 points!
Ha, I have it 32-15 as Pete did and am unclear how they got to 31. I'll wait and see Pat's recap later.
About 1,500. I think they use it for volleyball as well as wrestling.
"Missile Mesenbrink", I kind of like that...
Good sprawl from bottom there
I’m always listening to student announcers going forwards. Sorry Byers.

More sprawling from bottom… this time while giving up back points…

Mitchell, Missile, Mesenbrook, Mesenbrick, Mesenbrink...
Mitchell citing rule book provisions to the ref 
Damn it, Mitchell! I had a fall in KYPSW.
Did the Maryland kid take top? I think he did even though Byers didn't catch it. That was kind of weak, but, kind of smart by Rodriguez.

Messenbrink also wrestling 174 today
I would have to change my name to Sir Pinned Alot...
Agree. PJ and Marcus have a great shot to be National Champions. I’d make that bet along with some others on our team. Great Test coming up against Nebraska and OSU.

Mesenbrink back out, no Mesenbrick, no, it is Levi, phew!
I just wish our guys would go for the gusto
Carter Young was the wrestling version of this scene........
Save ink......let's go with Missilebrink
I think Marcus is equally as talented, but, 133 is one of the absolute best and deepest weights that I can ever remember. I'm not saying he can't run the table, but, it's going to be much more challenging for him. 157 is a tough weight too, but, not on the level with 133.
