I thought the 6th year guys did pretty well

[1032004]

I know there were some comments about the 6 and 7 year guys often flaming out.  But half of the champs were 6th year guys - Byrd (and still has 1 more year), Lovett, Starocci, Buchanan, and Hendrickson (I’m counting “Air Force Prep” as a redshirt year).

But in reference to @Paul158’s thread, only 3 of those - Byrd (assuming he wrestles next year), Starocci, and Hendrickson will have the chance at 5 NCAA tournaments (Lovett and Buchanan both wrestled in 2020).
