  1. Kicked ass in escapes and reversals.
  2. Ross stopped wrestling with :05 left.
  3. It's been determined that White has never wrestled, except in grades 4-6 and 9-12.
  4. With both moving up Echemendia looks the smaller of the two.
  5. I've learned that the newest Gopher's coach, Leroy Vega's son is also now on this team.
  6. I think it's fair to say that the last couple high school graduating classes are down a bit from previous years but the class of '27 is pretty good. Team-wise, St. Michael-Albertville, Stillwater, Wayzata, and Kasson-Mantorville should all be improved due to not losing many to graduation and getting a few transfers.
  7. An interesting fact is that #30 Stillwater, MN could have at least 6 sons of former Gopher all-americans on the team: Lawrences (2), Hartung, Eggum, Becker, Elzen. Could be another I'm forgetting. Also, the younger brother of Roman and Ryder Rogotzke.
  8. You could just walk the Earth like Kwai Chang Caine, rough up a few outlaws once in a while, and it could be considered a mission.
  9. In a brilliant countermove, Tom Brands and David Taylor have announced that several key athletes on their teams will now take advantage of the maternity clause, to preserve eligibility.
  10. Peterson was undefeated in 4 years of high school without giving up a takedown and only one reversal, I believe.
  11. Third at NCAAs last year at Hwt. Also just beat Demitrius Thomas. Should be a good match with Hilger in the finals.
  12. Gaj did a mild headgear toss as well as dropped his singlet strap.
  13. Luke Becker is starting his 24th year on staff at Minnesota. I think Jeremy Hunter had 25 years in at Illinois before becoming HC last year.
  14. Why do identical or nearly identical twins always go to the same school? They've been battling each other since the womb and you'd think they would want to try more independence and different workout partners. Not to mention a chance to both be at their ideal weight for competition.
  15. As someone who has watched both Berge and White (MN native and MN flip) a lot over the past couple years, the result yesterday was about as predictable as a sunrise.
  16. There isn't really any indication that Cael would have even made all-american that first season. I remember him and Joe Heskett were both equally highly regarded true freshman, but I don't recall talk of them starting. Paul Jenn, the guy that beat him that year at an open, went 2-2 at nationals, getting teched by Eggum (5th place) and majored by Simpson (4th place) in his 2 losses at NCAAs.
  17. It seemed like Grajeda and Heeg were wrestling above their optimal weight.
  18. Is there a day 2 weigh-in at Super 32?
  19. About 40 cents a day.
  20. Great write-up. Looking forward to the action this weekend.
  21. Jr 132, 144, and 157 all seem like they have some good semis and finals matches today.
  22. All right, the great matchups start happening tomorrow morning.
  23. The PNL channel on Rokfin has video coverage and USA bracketing has the brackets.
