    Flo and Intermat have him at #5.

    More history? Kerkvliet vs. Slavikouski: more k's in last names than ever before?
  5. BigRedFan
    WTF?
  6. BigRedFan
    Yeah, Vito limping onto and off the podium was nothing.

    JDA seems to have forgotten one of the awards:
  8. BigRedFan
    Get used to disappointment.
  9. BigRedFan
    And Peterson beats Ramos...

    Cardenas with a late TD to upset Deprez in the EIWA semi-final match.

    Don't know, but I remember that the baseball matchup between Vanlandingham and Isringhausen was *not* the longest combined names.

    Cornella blew out his injured knee in OT. Two matches and scrupulously avoided ever being on bottom, and really couldn't do much in neutral. Cornell could've had all ten guys in the semis if not for that injury (yeah, everyone gets injuries).

    Losing with about :20 to go, getting the late TD and riding out (with a bonus NF at the end) is "light work"?

    The difference is that Fernandez earned them, and Swisher didn't.
  15. BigRedFan
    This. Fernandez got the first two takedowns, was in deep about three more times, and gave up a very late takedown. The ref failed to give Fernandez back points on the first takedown. Swisher really only had that one TD attempt the whole match, it seemed.
  16. BigRedFan
    Fernandez is the guy who beat Swisher, and yes, he should review that match!

    Gabe Dean was the #73 ranked recruit in Flo's rankings. Finished 3,1,1,2 at NCAAs for Cornell.

    Except a Medical Forfeit is when a wrestler does not take the mat at all. No recovery from that. An injury default is when a wrestler starts but does not finish a match. The wrestler can compete in their next match.

    Not exactly authoritative, is it? A tweet by a reporter (I guess) quoting an unnamed official. Which do you think is more likely: 1.a was officially cited without any other swimmer actually being interfered with, and nobody reviewed and overruled what would be an obvious discretionary correction; or 1.b was cited as an obvious infraction occured?
  20. BigRedFan
    I'm curious as to who "they" are who you are citing and where the citation is to be found.
  21. BigRedFan
    Seems like people don't understand that the swimmer broke a clear rule, most likely unintentionally, and that the official on deck should not have enforced the rule since it appears that no other swimmer's race was affected. I guess "no harm, no foul" is the thinking?
  22. BigRedFan
    I thought this part was pretty clear: Rule 2.5.1.b: A swimmer who changes lanes during a heat shall be disqualified. https://swimswam.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/NCAA-Swimming-and-Diving-Rules-Book-2021-2023.pdf

    The race isn't over until the last person in the heat finishes. You can't leave your lane, neither by going into another lane nor by getting out of the pool. This rule *ensures* that nobody interferes with any other swimmer. No judgment needed. You don't do it. Make no mistake: I feel for him.
  24. BigRedFan
    Rather than the simple and obvious "don't do that"?
  25. BigRedFan
    The guy who was disqualified changed lanes before all swimmers had finished. That's a no-no. There's no judgment allowed on the official's part; do you want it to be a judgment call as to whether anyone in another lane was affected? The correct response by the winner of a heat is to remain in the lane until everyone is finished; maybe hang on the lane line to congratulate the swimmer in the next lane.
