2023 US Open

4 seed Zeke Seltzer Mizzou’s top redshirt freshman just got beat by Iowas Jace Rhodes. Seltzer looked horrible
 
Pretty sure the NJRTC is in Princeton. Rutgers wrestling club is called S(carlet)K(nights)WC, which is kinda dumb since it is easily confused with Sunkist Kids.
For some reason, I thought Rutgers and Princeton were in together on NJRTC now, but I must’ve conflated them with the Penn/Drexel situation.
 
Im going to need a separate computer next year to track upcoming bouts and matt assignments. Impossible trying to tale it all in
 
At what point does schadenfreude turn to just plain pity? For me, I feel I'm pretty much there w/ all things Hawkeye. It's not really fun to have a "rival" with so many systemic issues, and they're a proud program that perhaps deserves at least a little better than what they've got in recent years.

Iran, and maybe some day soon Russia is our rival.
Might want to review this gem from early 2010. The smugness in that articles can last for decades.

So - if #2 thru 7 from Open qualify for WTT, who among PSU guys are eligible for WTT?
Beau?
McIntosh?
Starocci if healthy?
others?

There’s only WTT for 61kg, 92kg, & 125kg—the rest already have 2 Final X participants by virtue of their reigning world medalist and now Open winners.

I’m not certain of the criteria, but McIntosh is definitely still alive. I’d think Kerk for his age level medals and recent NCAA runner up status, and RBY for his NCAA success might still be in the game, in theory.

aah yes, thats right.
I'm only asking these for the uninformed masses, you understand.

Still, did the Open carry out to other place finishes?
I.e. did Beau finish 4th etc?
 
Sealey with another tech in round 32. I absolutely love watching this kid wrestle. He reminds me so much of Nolf. Similar attacks, movement, pace, and creativity. Nolf was better on the mat but from neutral I see so many similarities

 
Mesenbrink with a tech over Anthony White of Rutgers

This is the first I have seen of Mesenbrink, and the Nolf comparisons are legitimate. His attacking style reminds me of Jason.

I am hopeful that his folkstyle wrestling will resemble Jason in terms of pace and creativity.

Surprised as how much Forrest seems to be struggling to adapt to 60kg. Sort of wondering if he’s not wrestling through an injury the last few weeks.
