Joe Williams had a pretty good double leg. Slay over Joe Williams 2000 trials or US Open forget which one but Slay hit a monster double at one point. They had history before that Williams beat Slay in NCAA finals one year.
yep Turley made noise in 2021 with that 8th place finish from a 26 seed, as did fellow Virginian KIllian Cardinale with a 7th place finish that same year off a 17 seed (ok less noise) and an 8th place finish last year from a 28 seed.
Rooting for Turley as well and another 174 who I think could sneak in there is Justin McCoy from UVA. Also hoping DJ McGee from GMU can make some noise.
now these guys all gotta qualify first....
Staylor was awesome. I'm class of '86, my school was AA then, 6A now. My time in HS I'd say the best guys were both from class of '85, Steve Martin Kempsville and John Epperly from Robinson.
anyone know the biggest margin of victory in NCAA tournament, pre tech-fall days? Pretty sure I saw a 32-0 win for one of the Gibbons brothers one year. Figure that's hard to beat.
Gene rolled some guys too, for sure. Think he had a 28-4 win his senior year at NCAAs, his only non pin win that year.
2019 Hodge race was looking like co-winners heading into NCAA tournament: Nolf and Nickal. Nolf's razor thin win in semi over older Hidlay seemed to cost him.
Metzger was a 4 time AA. and another to add to the list based on international success is Kevin Jackson - Olympic gold, I think 2 world golds as well. college not too bad either (4x AA?) but never a champ.
