From the rule book (emphasis added): Certainly, Cornell staff has had plenty of concussion experience with both Foca and Ramirez suffering multiple concussions two seasons ago.

Beats me. That is the sign for concussion protocol, correct? Certainly all was not well with Shapiro, right?

What do you think the ref is doing here in that match?

Gosh, people improve. Who might have guessed?

He is hurt, possibly from the end of the Andonian match (he received a leg hit to the leg in the final scramble). Early in his second match, there was a high-speed scramble that ended off camera, followed by the Cornell corner coming over. The ref then gave the "fist to the forehead" sign indicating concussion protocol, which was not initiated. It was pretty clear that there was a head issue after that. Really surprised he was allowed to continue. I'll be surprised if he goes to the Collegiate Duals in two weeks. He does not have a conditioning problem, that is clear.

Why is Griffith a NCAA champ but Carr is only a former champ? Because Griffith was the defending champion when Ramirez beat him, but Carr is not.

Ramirez now has wins over Griffith (NCAA champ), Carr (former NCAA champ), and two over Monday (NCAA finalist).

That didn't work, either.

I'm using Chrome, and I can't see them.

I won my AG in triathlons many times with a margin of victory smaller than my lead coming out of the water. Sucks to be you.

:51.3 for 100scy. Since my turns sucked, I figure I could have broken 1:00 for 100lcm.

Posted on a *wrestling* forum. Oh, the irony. (at my fastest ever as a Masters swimmer, I could have stayed with Ledecky for any 100m other than her first in that 800m)

Yes, I know freestyle is not folkstyle. Daniel Cardenas (Stanford) lost to Peyton Robb 6-4 and Ed Scott 6-4 in SV at last year's NCAAs. Shapiro beat Cardenas 11-0 at the US Open in April last year. A lot of pressure on Shapiro, to be sure. He really, really doesn't like to lose (not that I've seen him lose in like the last three years!). Just sayin'.

Fernandes was nursing an injury that took him out of the rest of the season (hip surgery afterwards).

More on Arujau:

Nursing an injury. Reported to not be serious.

At 157, they have Andonian at #3, and Shapiro at #14 (do the math).

Vito Arujau and Meyer Shapiro scoring a combined total of 14.3 points? I'll take the over, thanks. (I understand that what you did, like Asimov's psychohistory, applies to overall trends and not to individuals)

No scoring in the first period. Lovett chose down in the second period, and got the escape in :05. Boyd chose neutral in the third. No other scoring, but Lovett was hit with stalling with :06 left. You can find the details on Flo Arena for that and all other matches they covered.dd

Hardly. He missed the last dual and the Mat Town Open this weekend. Pretty sure he wasn't ducking Sacred Heart.

At least one of your picks definitely won't win: Arujau isn't going (per Coach Grey). Bold call at 157. It will be interesting to see Foca at 184.

Ha. Only one guy on the list gets the "first name only" treatment.

Maybe Loew, Cardenas, Foca, and Fernandes can all do a grad transfer to Stanford...

I think that Loew has no time to sit out any more. Pretty sure he's already taken as much time off as he could to avoid graduation. I have no inside information on him or just about anything else.

Foca had one at 184 this weekend, although it only lasted :49...
