Looks like Zach Espalin, who was formerly at Navy ended up at Tarlteton State and won his only match last year.

I watched him in open tournaments myself last year and thought next year he should be AA fur sure. Top three is ambitious but possible

I'm not smarter than you, but let me toss out a guess for 174: Paul Ognissanti

I wish. 200 bucks is a lot for wrestling shoes as an old man who isn't planning on using them

Markos Mihalopoulos from Campbell to Wisconsin-La Cross

Either way - Josh Moore has been on an absolute transfer tear this year. Another Golden Flash incoming? Wow!

Anthony Streib from Bellarmine to Elmhurst

Do we know how many scholarships Morgan State has? What sort of facilities they have? Maybe resources are an issue?

Nolan Wertanen (NQ last year) has been removed from Michigan's roster

Can anyone find this online

I’m asking what’s underlying your guess of 4 — is it more bottom-up, meaning you’re looking at the brackets and the specific matchups each wrestler faces? Or is it more top-down, meaning you’re evaluating overall team quality and setting expectations from that? I ask because I don’t know much about a lot of the international wrestlers, so I can’t make an accurate prediction myself. If your approach is bottom-up, I’d know I should dig into the brackets and specific matchups. If it’s top-down, I’d focus more on the overall roster quality.

When you assert that people would not go over four and you would win if they didn't: are you judging it from a bottom up or a top down perspective. I.e. are you saying that based on the brackets they have and what each wrestlers path to medaling would be? Or more or an overall evaluation of the quality of the team and an expectation based on that?

it's a great question. I have asked @andegre, but he may not be checking these boards as he has not yet responded over the years. goes without saying that I am greatly appreciative of wrestlestat and I have donated money over the years. I just don't know what logic it uses to make its (re)classifications

Virginia Duals were a blast! Great teams there always and it got us out of school for a couple days

was it John Testa? guy who wrestled at Clarion? he was a coach while I was at St. Marks

I wrestled for St. Marks at one point - after Bruce did. Are you a Delaware guy? BTW - if you beat Bruce Kelly ever - hats off to you.

2024 also had Hamiti who did not place! That's where I voted
