Davino dominates National Qualifier Leete from American 14-3. Same guy lost to Crookham 4-3 at NCAA's and Vito 4-2

He was picked to win by many..I think Flo had even split between Brooks and Yazadani in their picks. Either way he was picked to be Gold or Silver by everyone.

NLWC have done well at Worlds no doubt but not so much in the Olympics. Obviously we know what happened this year as all 4 entries underperformed expectations but in 2020/21 they also sent 3 guy and only DT took home the gold. Not saying that was a bad result necessarily though. So to your question...yes, but I would say that in general to any situation when there is such a heavy concentration at one club.

I mean there are a lot of people to blame for the USA not winning outright including USA Men's Wrestling as a whole and that high jumper who decided not to share the gold medal and instead listen a jump off and the IOC in general who allowed about 20+ Chinese swimmers to compete despite failing doping tests.. Tying with China is a loss to me...

Snyder may not be done at only 28 but he looks to be on the downside of his career and there are at least 3 or 4 World guys that would be clear favorites over him at this point. And then if Brooks goes up a weight well...

65kg Jesse Mendez all the way...

I think DT is prol kicking himself and thinking this too..I wonder if that wasn't an impetus to him leaving NLWC. We all know that guys that train together produces some wrestle off results that just aren't accurate due to familiarity. We see it every year with weird upsets during wrestle offs.

It's insane...yet convicted child Rapists were allowed to compete at the Paris Olympics.

Money, power and corruption...

Great job by NLWC........

Not a good look for Dake...

Maybe...but I'm guessing he doesn't get completely dominated and shut out.

Would have liked to have seen what Jesse Mendez could have done at 65kg.

A poster asks him outright if he will be back with the Buckeyes nesxt season and Sasso responded "100%"

I would guess most wrestlers are...not sure why that should surprise anyone.
