We all have our opinions, it’s all good. And my opinion is that Hendrickson has much better technical prowess than Parris, however he cannot keep up with him and additionally will never grow his technical skills to their fullest potential because he chose to enlist. If Parris pins him in 30 seconds then I guess it doesn’t matter.

Despite the clear technical gap, parris squeaks out a 12-5 decision.

You realize I said better technician not better wrestler and picked Parris, right? So quit arguing over a nothing-burger by being disingenuous.

Hopefully Parris can close the wide technical gap against world-renowned technician Cohlton “Scoreboard” Schultz this March.

Its the upper level. Some people are better technicians, others have supreme cardio, others are significantly stronger. It’s all about who can exploit their strengths + mitigate their weaknesses + exploit their opponents. It’s almost like styles make matchups…

It's like Robot Wars or BattleBots. Will the hammer beat the saw.

a motivated Sasso is fun to watch.

Floboys complaining about Wrestlestat not using the All-Star classic in their official records lol.  It's a good comradery between Intermat and Wrestlestat to decide not to count it..

[flyingcement]

speaking of motivated versions of people:

Kendall Coleman - has surprised me today

[flyingcement]

Peyton Robb with the Adidas Combat Speed - maybe the shoe that has been owned by most serious wrestlers at some point in their life time (with the same teal and pink color scheme)

He still does a great job getting top tiered recruits into the program, most of which from right here in Iowa.

In the shadow of the Sqwawkers and Iowa State, that's pretty impressive.

I agree, and "sqwawkers", I like that!

[flyingcement]

Peyton Robb just keeps getting incrementally better it seems like.  Steady and always upward.  You have to think he's the favorite at 157 for the title at this point.  It's such an open weight, but I think he has a better chance than any other (not an edgy pick)

[flyingcement]

ouch - Tanner Cook knocked himself unconscious

[flyingcement]

if it wasn't concussion protocol, why did we stop action?

[flyingcement]

This is the first time Labriola and Lewis have ever wrestled in college

Injury time.  He was clearly hurt.

At least Cook got to wrestle more than one minute this time...

[flyingcement]

impressive tech by Ramirez, btw

I thought he hit his head - agreed he was clearly hurt.  It looked to me like he was trying to be tough, but I hope there was enough care to ensure that he didn't actually have a concussion.

If you have a concussion, no toughness will get you just restarting.  The medical staff was all over him in a flash.

I've had a couple as a high schooler and was put right back into action.  I understand things have changed since then, but it's something I'm a little sensitive to because of how much impact can be caused from repeated cases

[flyingcement]

Had three in a year - one was a deep concussion where I was unconscious for more than ten minutes after.  The other two times happened later in the same year since you become more sensitive to it.  

 

Anywayws - Labriola and Lewis giving us some good action and scrambling to start

[flyingcement]

wow double bricks after Labriola takes down Lewis in overtime.  good night for the Lehigh Valley

[flyingcement]

How many times this year is Kaleb Romero going to have to beat up on poor Hunter Bolen.

Trent Hidlay takes Keckeisen straight to his back

Anyone with a wrestler going against Hidlay needs to start chanting “Stalling” right off the whistle.
