Nebraska and Iowa will be taking some guys This tourney tends to feature back ups plus anyone who needs to get matches to qualify, or bump their win %, for seeding purposes. The back ups are there to be fodder for the starters who need to up the match count or win %. In the past Dresser has arranged the brackets so that starters do not hit until late in the bracket, even though this is blatantly against the rules. And if by then they have enough matches or win %, they forfeit. It is a very cynical "tournament". 3 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1032004 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Kudos for Lindenwood guys going considering they’re not eligible for NCAA’s and their team got dropped, although I know they’re just there to pad other guys’ records 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SetonHallPirate Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Keep in mind there are six of them this year, under various names...(the Cowboy Shootout at Wyoming, the Last Chance Open at Iowa State, the F&M Scramble at Franklin & Marshall, the National Collegiate Open in Smyrna, Delaware, the Patriot Last Chance Open at George Mason, and the Wildcat Open at Davidson) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things to keep in mind: (1) bouts against teammates do not count on the ISRF; (2) the forfeits count as losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started as a “cynical” tournament, but after the criticism Dresser did clean it up. And the new MFF rules will further do so. I went back and looked at last year’s brackets and there were some pretty good guys there including some in redshirt. Looks like DeAugustino injury defaulted to Spratley in SV for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
