Penn State @ Lehigh

[Pinnacle]

Wrestlestat has Lehigh winning at 125, 133 and Penn State gets the rest. Not so sure about that. I pick Crookham at 133 of course, but I pick PSU's freshman 125 Lilledahl to beat Seymour from Lehigh. 

Wrestlestat has Barr over Beard from Lehigh, but I am picking the veteran Beard in that match. 

Wrestlestat has Kerkvliet winning by 2 over Trephan, but I think he wins more easily than that. E ither Kerk gets the major or is working towards it at the end. Wrestlestat also has Van Ness by 4 points over Griffin from Lehigh, but I think Van Ness gets bonus there.

I agree with you on every point….

I agree that Van Ness will get 5 or 6 against Griffin. Griffin just lost to HS Senior and PSU commit Perry. Griffin and SVN wrestled in HS and SVN pinned him IIRC

I don't think Trephan will be wrestling until the 2nd semester, right?

Also, I think we might see Lopez out for Lehigh at 133.  He has wrestled as many duals as Crookham this year, including the last one against Pitt.

Also, Levine, Steen, or possibly McHenry might get the nod at 133 for Penn State instead of Davis.

I think this might be the lineup we see... something close, at least:

The Lehigh wrestling schedule website also lists the Service Electric Network (which streams other Lehigh home wrestling matches).

Lehigh seems committed to red shirting Stanich and Brignola but I would love to see those matches at 141 and 165.

[Spladle88]

Yeah I would say the wrestlestat guess is pretty accurate, Lehigh is committed to red shirting Brignola and Stanich (things change but not looking likely).

 

Also Crookham has been nursing injury, wouldn't be surprised if you don't see much of him till second semester, especially in a dual you have no chance of winning, although I'm sure Lehigh would love to put him out there in front of the big "home" crowd.

I saw that there was a dual earlier this season where the coaches agreed to extra matches. I would like to see that at every dual. It would also be nice if the TV/Streaming service showed those matches.

But in the case of this dual, there is a perfect scenario for extra matches. 

Lehigh should want to showcase Stanich and Brignola, and PSU has plenty of young guns who'd accept that challenge. Can we get back to having extra matches? 

[Pinnacle]

Crookham doesn't TF top 10 wrestlers, more like a Decision win.

Kysion Garcia would be in that conversation as well
