I fat-fingered my data entry and had his record at 6-6 one year… Still working on sanity scrubs with it. There are few more with 27 matches over the course of 4 tournaments that could be added. 1

lu_alum Posted January 26 Posted January 26 4 minutes ago, ionel said: Maybe adjust for the non pigtail vs pigtail years or an * for those who got a pigtail match or two, etc.? When were the "non-pigtail" years? There have been championship pigtails in the 32-man bracket structure for every tourney since 1967. The only difference today is the existing process defines a single pigtail for each 33-man bracket, as opposed to the era when qualifying tourneys selected their own national qualifiers allocated by the 5-year R12 calculation and the (back-room) "wildcard" process.

gimpeltf Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I see 2. There are a couple years without brackets on wrestlingstats so could be there. Obviously had to be early years. I knew the 1936 Unl situation as I knew Scobey (Lehigh) only had 3 in the weight so the 3rd had to be one. Dell Shockley- Ok St 1929 115 Gordon DuPree - Oklahoma State 1936 Unl 3

Lucas Byrd has 20 with two tournaments left to go. How many does mckee the younger have? He’s had some real deep consi runs too 1

Third in a three man bracket, fourth in a four man bracket. Well, it was a five-man bracket. He did lose twice by what today would be a MAJ decision (12-3 and 10-2).

Good point. So imagine you are that fifth man, Burl Boring (I am guessing he did a lot of hand fighting and never took a shot), who goes 0-1 in the same bracket but loses out to the guy who goes 0-2 for fourth place just because that guy got two buys to Boring's one.

cowcards Posted January 28 Author Posted January 28 It's not often that a #1 seed doesn't win a match, it's only happened 12x by my count. But one year 2 of them did. What year was it and who were they?

My guess is it occurred prior to complete consolation brackets.

To give this board a little different topic of discussion I'll post a new trivia question every day in this thread. The most matches won in a single NCAA tournament is 8. Name the wrestlers who have done this. I'm not looking down thread first, so here goes: Epperly McKee Sheets?
