Cal Poly program fits the definition of a good comeback story.  Love it.

Sioredas is a very good coach. When he was hired some were shocked but he’s one the most respected technicians in the country

I was only shocked because I was hoping he'd end up with the (then-open) Fresno State job instead after he got kneecapped by the Grand Canyon administration...of course, Cal Poly worked out far better for him than Fresno State would have (in likely being kneecapped again by admin there).

I actually think his success at Cal Poly is because of lessons he learned at Grand Canyon before Grand Canyon reneged on their program.

This is where my personal bias comes in. I think he would have done a better job at Fresno than the other coaching staff and not gone so far over budget

Great comeback story for the program, but I don't see a chance of beating OSU. I'd say at least a 10 point win for the Beavers. Had Valencia and Schultz wrestled in the ASU dual, they probably lose that one by double digits rather than win by 1.

I don’t disagree, but it’s still awesome

Pac 12 will be a close tournament. Probably more ranked wrestlers heading into the tournament than the conference has seen in awhile.

Very cool, very nice.  I think they only lose 2 guys next year, too.  With a lineup shuffle back down to get a healthy Kemp in it ends up being only losing 1.

Cal Baptist coaches tell their team in practice hype sessions that "Cal Poly stands for California Polytheists".  And it has become a bit of a southern California battle for the existence of one or many gods.

They lose Rotondo, Demas and Brawley Lamer... Kemp coming back would fill Lamer's spot. They also have several guys graduating but have another year of eligibility- It would depend on what they want to do. I can see a lot of teams coming after Truax pretty hard. Of course he might be heavyweight by next year...

He weighed five pounds less on Day 2 of the Collegiate Duals (189.0lbs).  I don't think he goes heavyweight.

Also, I thought Brawley had one more year?

They get another Lamer in at that weight so a drop would still be fitting.

He's listed as graduate.... but you know with the free year, just keep wrestling until someone says you can't.  Yes they god Daschle who is very good... He could slide into 174 very easily if they decide to not redshirt him.

It was a joke referencing his weight increases every year.... he started at Cal Poly at 149 and goes up weight classes every year, so his trajectory is heavyweight next year. He has to be the guy who has gained the most weight from entering college to his senior year. 149 - 197.

Oh, I know.

Similar, but not the same: UofM's Anthony Biondo wrestled 145 as a High School senior in 2005-06 and 197 as a Collegiate senior in 2010-11.
