And he did it on a gimped leg! Was scheduled to have surgery, got the call he was in the tourn. due to a someone that dropped out (forgot the reason). So he wrestled on a bad leg as the 33 seed. Obviously losing to the #1 seed immediately then to battle back through the con's for 8th place. Get's his AA medal, then proceed to his knee surgery.
I like this topic and agree with most everyone, but what about the worst transfer??
I am totally disappointed with Amine the most! I'm beating that he doesn't AA again this year. He was a waste in my opinion!
Because Dreshaun is in this topic, my biggest concern for Oklahoma State is that there may be a log jam at the future HWT spot with Dreshaun and the younger Merrill (who is the current #1 ranked High school HWT) both coming in. The older Merrill will take Surber's spot after this year, so 197 is not going to be questioned. HWT is the future head scratcher.
Yes Iowa did win the match last night, but I still think OState has a chance of finishing 2nd. I think we all know that if Plott would have won last night against Arnold Ostate wins the match. So with Arnold back in the lineup for Nationals they are a little weaker than they showed last night. Obviously Ferrari was put in to give them a better shot at winning.
Just the opposite, Spratley grew up in Eufala, OK and moved to Plano, TX his later years of high school. Jamison grew up in Durant, OK and moved to Plano, TX in his later years of high school. So I would say they are both true Oklahomans!
I guess you could compare at the National tourn. which team had the most national champions the years they won the team title. I remember one year during one of Oklahoma State's title runs (somewhere between 2004-2006) they had 5 champs.
For UNI to be ranked #5, Downey and Keck could be the only winners tomorrow night. Could go differently, but I wouldn't be shocked if this was the outcome either.
Now that most duals have an intermission after the 157lb match (15 min. break), this would be cool thing to do during all intermissions at every college dual.
