Having participated in it I can tell you. 1st couple of sessions were a dual/team tournament, National/World teams from a number of nations (Asia, Europe and the Pans and a couple of US Teams with World/National teamers). Countries would dual each other and the last day was an individual tournament, typically brackets of 8. About 20 years ago it became a junior/U20 event. I believe that ended with COVID or when Mark Halvorson passed away.

Didn't Cael already kill the "open tournament"? He's been accused of ruining everything else, may as well credit this to him (if it happens)...

No challenge from Turkey's corner and at least 1 of the people in chairs paddled it good, but that looked like a questionable 4. Granted it was from my couch, but it appeared that Kayaalp landed on his left hip, not his ass and there wasn't really any back exposure - although admittedly, I haven't kept up with the rules in a few years.

The 61kg for (note, did not write "from") the Philippines wrestles for Jason Welch at San Francisco State.

Bisek jumped on my radar when he beat National Team member Kenny Cook at The Open back in 04/05ish. Regarding Joe Warren, in that vid cap a page or so back, he looks like he's crying. Having been on the mat with him, he's definitely no cry-baby - he may not actually be the "Baddest Man on the Planet" but he is one tough SOB and a great person to lead US Greco (JW was coachable, which has carried over to hm being an excellent coach).

(Rumor) Three Penn State wrestlers wanted by police for assault
OMW replied to RAFWiki's topic in College Wrestling
Davis is that 3+ year private, with a 4 row rack without a GCM, that no team/squad leader wanted because after everyone was cut on Friday, they knew they'd be in the company office on Monday answering to the Gunny/1st shirt about what kind of F up he was over the weekend and why they had to retrieve him from IHCA or the PMs office. -
Give it time and caveira will somehow come up with it being Cyler Sanderson and David Taylor with the violation by Carl.
-
as long as he's not driving to it, why shouldn't he still be in? USAW is allowing someone arrested for "solicitation" to compete at Sr Worlds.

Best to never stand on top of the NCAA podium

Gerry Abas Penn Staters - Greg Elinsky, Dan Mayo, Troy Sutherland Post NCAA - Greg Gibson -
This ^ And the next breath that pos pedo sandusky takes is one too many. As for the allegations surrounding PSU/NLWC - and this isn't a "gotcha" or "see, it isn't true because", but there is no action/activity via safesport for any of the wrestlers/coaches/staff. It would seem there'd be something by now...

Your Favorite Wrestler on Your Least Favorite Team
OMW replied to MoveCountermove's topic in College Wrestling
Although he's done (at least at the collegiate level) - Brock Hardy. I have a strong dislike for Nebraska. At least one of their fans is an insufferable dumazz, so the program gets to wear it and the head coach appears to be a whiny F'er. -
#2 looks right for Vega. Only wrestler to put a "L" on Mendez in college last year and his ability to win those close ones - or matches that he looked to have been outwrestled - in factors into it as he has that ability to "just win, baby!". It's not Barr's fault, but 197 wasn't as strong as 141 last season.

So there was a zero-six flight from Gitmo? Maybe Lt. Col Markinson has the logbook...
-
yeah, but they're small, right?
-
Would be great to see a home and home with Okie State. Get it scheduled Cael!
-
They can always include that he, "...reached the championship match in his weight-class at the New Jersey State Championships in each of his four years of high school and had his hand raised after all four of his finals matches."

Italians claim that AJ is Maltese.

He's back to his freshman year orange and black

National Team, not World Team...but the same sentiment applies.

"MEDICINE VALLEY FARRARI WRESTLING CAMP" Somebody had 1 job - and they failed at it.
