Threadkilla Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Penn State still had a really good tournament. They wrestled at or above seed in 7 of 9 weights. With RBY and Facundo below seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would’ve beat it if RBY and one of Haines or Kerk won right? I guess you have a higher tolerance of being threatened than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn State also had things go in their favor with brackets falling apart and Labriola throwing himself to his back, but they still didn't break their own team record, let alone the tournament record.

It’s not 5? Four placement points and 1 advancement? Or do you only get the placement point for the last match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well then I’d say all 3 would’ve had to win, with given Penn State’s history I would’ve probably been threatened by, but nothing wrong with having different definitions of “threatened” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
