Even if just a handful, there are always a few who I am convinced would AA.
Christian Guzman of North Central is one this year. Even his backup Evan Spacht is an incredible wrestler - so they have great room competition at the weight to keep both guys sharp.
Last year there was the guy from Wisconsin-Whitewater - Jarritt Shinhoster

Since Smith beat Ramos already at CKLV (or Midlands or something), he has no incentive from the sport to compete against Ramos. Although most of us would frown upon that kind of behavior
Congrats on the W, @Southend. Any idea if Glicher is out for thr year or just temporarily? Also in the future, between he and Lillard, they have two excellent young wrestlers. Any idea who goes where after this year?
I could be wrong but that's how I remember it. Still they were on pace for team victory. I think it's the right call if they feel he had a serious injury concern
Pitzer was losing by something around 9-2 at that point. He could have likely finished the match without getting pinned but coach prioritized his wrestlers health over the dual outcome.
It's a different perspective on life when something like that happens. You let fewer opportunities pass you by. I say this as someone who faced a near death experience as a young man and incorporated that into my life philosophy afterwards
Otto looks very much undersized at 197. Supposedly he won the spot, despite being at a lower weight class, because he was decisively beating Tal Shahar in the room
Smith has beat Ramos, Spratley, Kaylor and Jordan this year alone. He also initiated action on almost all of the points in which McKee scored on counter. I think the weight will come down to matchups.
