I wonder if they RS Davino then bump up Bouz and Mendez for the next year.

I believe those two have to hold the weight for another year. Then a, 'bump' and fill in with Davino and Kilkeary.

If I knew anything, I'd be rich...

Good call on Webster & Mullen/Kueter. Those ones slipped by mind as first year starters. Barraclough made one post season start, right?

I had thought he did as well, but it doesn't appear to be so - looking at his WS profile

Barraclough has been a spot starter for four years, appearing in 2 - 7 duals per year, but he does not have any post-season matches.

Kueter started at HWT for Iowa for the Oklahoma State dual this year.  Is that the only dual he wrestled this year?

He beat Bennett Tabor 5-3 in the Iowa -Minnesota dual.

He suffered a pretty serious injury during Greco WTT last year. Excited to see him move forward

He's gone on a pretty nice run this Spring.  Won nationals in Greco and got 6th in FS (losing to the aforementioned Cael Hughes in a wild 11-10 match), and today he won the WTT.  I don't know if he's doing freestyle too, but that's pretty crazy at that level, where most all of the top Greco guys are specialists, for him to turn around and be right in the freestyle mix as well.

Assuming he'll start and not RS, I'll go with Aden Valencia at Stanford.

KANNON WEBSTER just beat Antrell Taylor at U20 WTT. Taylor was an All American last season at 165. Kannon is expected to go 149 next season.
