125 not a good weight for top seeds in recent years

[tomsc]

I was looking over NCAA finals results over the past 20 years and saw that in the past 5 years at 125, no #1 or #2 seeds made it to the finals.

2015 #4 Tomasello Dec US Moisey 9-5
2016 #3 Megaludis Dec #4 Gilman 6-3 (Yeah!)
2017 #4 Cruz Dec #6 Lizak 6-3
2018 #3 Lee Dec #4 Suriano 5-1
2019 #3 Lee Dec #5 Mueller

Nothing earth-shaking, but I found it interesting over a 5-year stretch no #1 or #2 seeds even made it to the finals. I'm sure 2020 would have broken that streak, but alas. . .

With everything i seen from 2020 so far, it’s not safe to assume Spencer would have broken this trend
