Sharing a bracket with Nick Lee are favorites Mitch McKee (Minny commit) and Kaden Gfeller (OSU commit). Looking forward to this one. Joe Lee won last year and has to get through Griffin Parriott (Purdue commit) and Zander Wick (Wisconsin commit) this year. Gavin Teasdale at 120 is probably the most hyped name at Fargo this year. Danny Vega (Iowa State commit) projects to meet him in the finals, which could be the start of a nice rivalry a few years down the road.

120 at Fargo. ....maybe just maybe 126 for HS????

so are there live brackets or is anyone tweeting out mat assignments? Hard to get lucky when there's 24 mats.

 

[tikk10]

Trackwrestling for mat assignments, and Flo for video.

Btw, just noticed that Edmond Ruth is there at 152 (cadet). Evidently lost in the second round yesterday but is now 3-0 on the consi side.

Track shows you the current bout on each mat, as well as the next 2 bouts assigned to that mat.

Nick Lee wins 10-0

Joe Lee was up 8-3 and got his back wrenched with a leg lace. Seen this way too often. Kids getting hurt. I hate this move so much.

 

[LemonPie]

Lee hangs on 10-7 but you have to think the rest of his tournament is ****ed.

Nick Lee in hole on Mat 3.

 

[dicemen99]

Jakob Campbell of Boyertown just beat Alec Thomsen 8-6. Pretty huge upset. Jake's been wrestling good lately, but not that good, lol.

 

[LemonPie]

Joe Lee looked good in round 2. Good news.

 

[Azchief32]

Potential Teasdale/Parker match in round of 1/16...sucks that two studs have to travel over a 1000 miles to face each other this early. Whoever seeded the 120 bracket was high.

But you also go to Fargo for the challenge, Champs welcome whomever, whenever

Well duh...but it would be nice to see a different stud from another state in the earlier rounds.

Correct and they've wrestled before, can't avoid it sometimes though Chief, relax

 

[Azchief32]

Have they wrestled before?

Yes...at Powerade. Gavin won by major (?) or close to it.

I just saw that and corrected my post, thanks , 12-4 Gavin

Track's dashboard is frozen, so I have no clue what mat N. Lee will be on. Should be within 10 minutes or so

Nick Lee tech'd Ethan Woods 10-0.
Joe Lee in hole on mat 5.

 

[LemonPie]

Lee should get Happel tomorrow. Looking forward to that match.

 

[LemonPie]

Crazy amount of ISU commits at Fargo today. They could make up 9/10 of their future starting lineup

125- Vega
133- Gomez
141- Parker
149- Storr
157- Baptiste
165- Meyer
174- Coleman
184-
197- Shields-Colbray
Hwt- Gremmel

 

[CropDuster507]

Fargo is easily my favorite tournament of all. If you've never been, I highly recommend it. TONS of college coaches walking amongst us commoners.

 

[CropDuster507]

Also, now that all of my guys are beat out and I'm disappointed, I'll have more time to watch more PSU recruits and prospects the next two days. I'll try to see and report what I can.

 

[NoVa Lion]

The Lee brothers are both in the R16 which starts shortly.

 

[tikk10]

Nick Lee up on mat 6 right now.

10-0 TF over Scott Cook - Wisconsin

 

[CropDuster507]

Lee makes quick work of WI kid. I'd like PSU to pick up Alex Lloyd from Shakopee, MN. The Shakopee kids are kinda underrated but very, very tough.

 

[tikk10]

A mohawked Verkleeren went 10-0 fast on a leg lace.

Joe Lee up next on mat 2, where Nelson Brands is presently losing 10-3.

Lee goes 10-0 as well.

Nick Lee has Carter Happel (Iowa) in quarters, on course for a Mitch McKee semi.

Joe Lee has David San Miguel (California) in quarters, on course for a semi against Griffin Parriott

 

[a_mshaffer]

Hidley looked good. Announcer tried to make something out of his red and black shoes/socks - not sure I understood. Where is he looking at going?

Older bro Hayden committed to NC St, I think

THanks Crop... that sounds familiar. Also makes sense with the red and black...

 

[CropDuster507]

Ben Askren coaches without shoes. That can't be sanitary.

Correct, Mason Manville knows his brother good, the same one that can't possibly contribute at PSU

 

[CropDuster507]

Quarters coming now. Where is Manville, anyway?

Nick Lee over Happel 12-2, though he had to work for it.

The Lee boys are no joke. Under the radar to some of our Pa-centric fan base

 

[LemonPie]

Lee with 5 takedowns to 1 against the Iowa recruit

 

[tikk10]

Joe Lee in hole on 8, where Mitch McKee is currently up 7-0 (and will face Nick Lee next if this stands).
