Didn't see that one coming. Well Done Nick, well done.
Ho lee ****, he did it! Switching to 133 and now slightly higher weight for this tourny is working for him--sound right, Abro?
Seems that way. He's really peaking it seems.
61 KG is about 134 1/2 pounds, so not that much of a stretch. AA went up more.
Holy ****...Suriano actually beat an Olympic medalist!!

Kratch article on Aragona:

“I heard the chant, and that got me going,” Aragona said, referring to the large contingent of Rutgers fans inside the Hulu Theater chanting “R-U! R-U!” during the bout. “That helped me out a little bit, get my legs going, my pace going. I knew that if I kept the pace high, I would break him.”

This is why a little bit of money will be going from me to wrestling. Love this kind of interaction between our fans and our athletes, and when we do well.
Not to be pedantic, but Colon was a world medalist. Still a great win for Nick.
