His roots? You mean Flo? Many on the Lehigh forum call this forum (which @Husker_Du owns as part of Intermat) the cesspool. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

As @dragit inquires... How far back does the analysis reach? Seeding the full 33-man bracket began in 2019. The likelihood of upsets by unseeded wrestlers was much greater prior to 2019. From 2014-2018, the top 16 were seeded. From 1979-2014, the top 12 were seeded. There was also a timeframe that wrestlers from the same conference were separated to the QFs, which introduced "phantom seeds" for many B1G wrestlers that were not in the top 12 or 16 at a particular weight.

125: Lilledahl 133: Seidel 141: Mendez - I really want Stanich (SF that should have been a Final) 149: Joy (Gaj takes out Van Ness in SF) 157: Shapiro 165: Mesenbrink 174: Ruiz 184: Sinclair 197: Barr 285: Ghadiali Wow... did I really just pick three champs for Cornell?

Greg Jones lost his opening bout as the #1 in 2003 to Ralph Everett, 3-2 TB. He bounced back to win two consolation bouts before falling to Rashad Evans in the R16, 3-2. Mack Lewnes from Cornell, who entered the tourney as a 35-0 sophomore, was the most recent #1 to drop an opening bout. Lewnes went 2-and-BBQ in 2009, losing consecutive bouts to Ryan Patrovich (5-3) and then Luke Manuel (3-1) in the consolation. Lewnes' other seasonal results: FROSH: Placed fourth, losing to #1 Eric Tannenbaum in the SF and Nick Marabel in the consolation final, finishing his season with 35-5 record. JUNIOR: Entered the 2010 tourney undefeated (36-0) at 174 as a junior, losing to Jay Borschel in the finals. SENIOR: Placed fourth as the #3 seed, only losing frosh Ed Ruth (2x) and Jon Reader, Nick Amuchastegui during the season. Career record 150-12 going 4-DNP-2-4 at NCAAs.

Partied in State College and missed weight at a December national FS event in Japan.

A lot of action for less than 3min of total match time.

Stanich over Mendez Seidel over Jax

Wait until session 2. At NCAAs, a loser on the top side will never wrestle a 2nd match in the same session.

My reporting became more advanced over the years:

Monday draft wrap-up: Finished in just over 2hrs (had 12 of 15 participants on the Zoom call).
