Vito beat RBY in freestyle.  RBY was undefeated in HS.  So Vito must have beaten fix in Folk.

Fix was undefeated in High School Folk unless you count 2014 Who's #1 when he lost to Suriano

Arujau is definitely not a sleeper.  133 along with many other weight classes just don't get discussed much on this board.  The board spends more time talking about if Spencer Lee could beat Cael Sand

I think you underthought it.

As others have said, Vito is not a sleeper. An underdog, yes. Draw a circle, place a Gumby action figure in to be Vito (obviously) and then add a Pokey horse to be Fix (again, obviously.) Toss in

Definitely not ready for "or".  Bill and I are still working on the definition of "is". 

I'd love to see Vito beat both at NCAAs.  Actually now that I think about it, I'd settle for him beating Bravo-Young.  That would probably cover it.

Has anyone other than Vito beaten both RBY and Fix in either (folk or freestyle)?  Vito beat both RBY and Fix in one of (folk or freestyle).

You are really overthinking this.

That makes it worse (or less good).

My sister in law is from this area.  I like that part of the world but they have an odd mascot for the local high school: The Millionaires

Seriously? That's an insane mascot for high school OR for any level.

Strange mascot name indeed.  Not a great long term strategy when factoring in the rate of inflation.  Going to bite them in the butt come year 2200.

How long have they been The Millionaires?  I'd suggest they haven't been investing well.

The name was adopted from their minor league team that oddly enough only lasted 4 years.  I guess from bad investing

The Williamsport Millionaires were a minor league baseball team based in Williamsport, Pennsylvania from 1906 to 1910. Many teams in this era never adopted formal nicknames and neither did the Millionaires. The Millionaire name was used by newspaper writers of the era in reference to the high salaries that the Williamsport owners were able to pay to the members of the team.[1

I thought using marginalized groups as your mascot was largely phased out over the past couple of decades.

I'm like horsecrap.  I've been all over.  Went to Cornell in the early 70s.  Post grad in Chicago.  Lived between Lock Haven and State College for a number of years in the 80s.  Went to matches at Thomas Fieldhouse and Rec Hall.  Currently split time between The Finger Lakes, NY and just north of Williamsport.  NC PA is a beautiful area.  I simply don't like Bravo-Young's back-up strategy vs any high level competition.


Actually, doesn't the "Millionaires" in all things Williamsport refer to the great wealth from logging 100+ years ago?  Fascinating history and topography in the entire area.   https://pawilds.com/asset/williamsport-millionaires-row/
So, where does Portajohn call home?

Yes,  we have a camp up near Camptown USA Bradford County.  Its a beautiful drive from WIlliamsport.  When anyone is visiting State College and they happen to have an extra day I always recommend the drive up to Elk country Benezette through Quehanna Wild Area

Rby cannot be beat without suriano or Rivera in the bracket.  

His defense is so strong and it always seems like he can score whenever he wants to

Fix vs Vito is a match to look forward to where the winner gets 2nd place
