Nash Hutmacher National Qualifier

[jchapman]

There is a lot to unpack after a big weekend of conference championships.  One effort that deserves some attention is Nash qualifying for the national tournament after three years off from the sport.  In the current era of sport specialization, this is a tougher feat as compared to Heavyweight football players of a couple generations ago.

I was def rooting for him, good story for Nebraska, wrestling, and the Hutmacher!

I know he was highly ranked out of HS but for a guy to not take a step on a mat for 3+ years and then come back and qualify for Nationals is crazy.

BEG wrestling, the kings of butchering names, pronounced his last name “Hot Mocker”. After he got beat in his first match, Zach kind of mumbled “more like a ‘Cold Mocker to me…’”. I cannot shake that from my memory. Makes me laugh half a dozen times a day. 
 

I am completely aware it isn’t THAT funny. I just can’t shake it. It’s an intrusive thought at this point. I have no idea how to really pronounce his name. He’s just Hot Mocker. Seems like an ok kid. I wish him well.

Agree...Much better post than the criticism he was taking a few weeks ago that brought up that his high school competition must have been really bad.
