Usually when you have these extremely muscular guys, they may sacrifice a little bit of quickness in favor of their bulk. Does not appear the case with Caliendo. Cat-like
I said he's been having an excellent year - in the sense that he's a hell of a lot better than he was last year. Clearly improved wrestler IMO. He has two wins over ranked wrestlers now as well as a win over Diversent who is tough. Last year he had nothing that would compare. His wrestlestat ranking has gone from 84 down to 47 and it hasn't counted today's victory
Kerk wins 2-0 and the dual is over. Peterson over Lilledahl is the only win for Rutgers. I bet that's the first (and last) time that Lilledahl is the only member of his dual team to lose his individual match.
Nebraska transfer Ethan Stiles, who had a hot start at 157, is down to 149, and giving Jordan Williams all he can handle. 6-1 decision by Stiles in a match that was fun in the scrambles, but not particularly close.
I hate to see a broken man like this. Poz had no defense for Barr. Tech fall. Whenever they match up, if it does happen, Barr is going to annihilate Ferrari.
Turley nearly gets a takedown with a funky defense to Haines in the second.
In the third, almost again, Turley in, but the legs get tangle and ref stops it. 5-2 Haines over Turley.
