Seems like it be smart to get Williams some conference wins. Why is it that Voinovich gets all the “easier” matches. He's got Chattanooga, Utah Valley, Wisconsin, Michigan state, Purdue, and Ohio states backup while Williams has had every top 15 guy we’ve faced at 157

We seem to do that sometimes. Did it with Teske/Schriever if I remember correctly.

Makes zero sense unless Williams is banged up so they want him for the big matches only or they will be going with Voinovich so they are protecting his potential seed by helping his win %. No idea why they wouldn’t go with Williams though as I think he’s obviously the better wrestler.

Here we go
165 - Mikey vs #4 Blaze
Crazy scrambling, but no TD called. MC almost lost the scramble. Review but no TD. I thought there should have been neutral danger swipes against Blaze, but they didn’t.
0-0 end of 1

Bad loss for Caliendo he’ll probably be the 4 seed at nationals now which puts him on the same side as messenbrink.
Bad match, looked gassed early and let blaze take bad shots and just slowly bring the leg in. They’ll wrestle in the big ten semis though and winner of that will get to be on the other side of MM

Purdue takes neutral. Eye poke. Purdue wrestler goes to locker room for treatment? Weird. Have seen it for concussion evaluation, but not for an eye poke.

Edit
Maybe it is concussion evaluation- might have taken a knee to the eye/head.

I will say the woman is saying whizzer and not wizard so that’s progress.
Now, if she could just teach Ironside...

After he beats Lockett and beats Blaze at B1Gs, he'll be the 2 seed. He looked off from early on today. He'll bounce back. One guy I still have faith in.

I don’t think he’ll jump locket in seeding even with a win.

He’ll be 1-1 and have at least 2 more losses than Lockett.

edit to add as long as he’s on the opposite side of messenbrink he’s going to have to beat blaze/lockett at the national tournament anyways so the difference between the 2 or 3 seed is negligible.
