I do too. He needs to get a little more offense, but that will come this year. 

He has always given Lilledahl a really hard time even in high school.

Ventresca. Spratley took zero shots because the refs let him get away with being in defense mode the whole match.  He beat Robinson once and maybe twice, I’m too tired to look.

I mean.. let's not pretend like Ventresca is an offensive dynamo here. He wrestles a 1-1 match and goes to OT against just about everyone in the top 10. Ventresca and Spratley is a "see you in OT" match-up. Neither does enough to get the other guy called.

But Vent does shoot during his matches. Spratley rarely does.

Spratley is pretty active in his matches against guys he's better than. Hell, he majored Ventresca in the dual. I'm not here to argue that Spratley is active, but I figured that semi-finals match was going into OT before it started. Ventresca had just come off of an OT win without any offensive points scored in the first 7 minutes in the quarters against Strickenberger. Ventresca is tough, but he is basically a 125 pound Cam Amine/Will Lewan. He's the most boring 125 in the country.

Talk about intriguing - if he can handle the cut . . . look out but I just feel like he's gonna be zapped of his strength no?

No way.  I'll believe he can make this cut capably when I see it, not before.

My assumption would be yes however I am choosing to be optimistic.

Shame Volk isn't still at Wyoming - would be a heckuva Duals opener.

Fair - although more time off the scale for Bouzakis for sure by round 2 so I'm sure he'll look good (or at least better than a tough test round 1)

Is this one weigh-in for the weekend?
