Are we all sleeping on Pierson Manville a bit? Kid just lost to Jesse Mendez 4-3 on a last second td. Mendez is a D1 AA while Manville still has another year of high school. He seems to just slide under the radar when we talk about the top kids but he is right there with everyone
Barr loses to Augustine again this time 4-1

One area I think Barr has an advantage over Facundo in that whole discussion is that he’s just plain stronger. Have seen him suck in a number of singles while extended and fight through a number of whizzers.
I think it’s because Pierson has been so quiet in his recruitment and the other Manvilles have burnt out. But he seems to have a great head on his shoulders in a good career ahead of him.
Hopefully his father will explain why.
From all accounts I’m privy to, also a likely get for the good guys regardless .
I was thinking similar thoughts earlier today while reading HR. Not sure which one posted it, but the question was about Manville and PSU room being somewhat crowded and maybe the Iowa coaching staff should be visiting State College.
Manville just keeps beating everybody put across from him on the mat.
Gonna be a weird scenario there. Like you said, all accounts are Mason loved his PSU experience and the family is settled in State College. But he good enough to be in the lineup very early at most places and that may not be the case at PSU.
Probably not but we are all super high on Kasak and he’s shown he’s right there with him while being a year younger.
You’re right. from a distance I can never tell the difference between Jimmy and Mark McKnight, but one of them was definitely there, and probably the actual coach.
Mark may have been in the corner with some M2 kids. Pretty sure he was.
So to recap.. We have
Zack Ryder in the finals at U17 80kg vs DeAlcapon Veazy
Luke Lilledahl in the finals at U20 57kg vs Jore Volk
Tyler Kasak in the finals at U20 65kg vs Kannon Webster
Mitchell Mesenbrink in the finals at 74kg vs Hunter Garvin
Joseph Sealey wrestling for 3rd at U20 74kg vs Nick Fea
Josh Barr wrestling for 5th at U20 79kg vs Noah Mulvaney
Connor Mirasola wrestling for 5th at U20 86kg vs Clayton Whiting
Cole Mirasola wrestling for 5th at U20 92kg vs Gabe Sollars

The matchups at U17 55kg, 60kg, and 65kg are so good. I love that it’s best of 3. I’m picking Knox, Jax, and Rath but don’t feel confident about any of them
Who is the coach of the Stellar Trained club? A ton of great young PA kids coming out of this club. Rath, Waters, and Dillard being a few of them
He doesn't. If you look at the brackets, he's the 1 seed. No idea why they keep showing him as the 11 seed on the score bug.
Not sure if he is actually COACHING but that is Chance MarSTELLAR’s club
And thanks for the lists!!
Shapiro was the Cadet WC in 2021 at 65kg. He's technically a high school senior this year.
There was a match yesterday where David Taylor was coaching in one corner and Chance Marstellar in the other. Chance is definitely coaching.
Gimme Knox, Davino and Mantanona. Feel like Davino may be a bit too much physical for Jax and Mantanona has more ways to score than Rath. Though I’d take Rath in folk.
Anybody know anything about this Kavin Mulyeart kid? Looks like a Central Pa kid and just an 8th grader. In the finals of U17 at 45kg.
When brackets first got posted he was the 11 and situated in the bracket as such. Probably just a mistake on FLO’s part because soon after it was changed and he was placed as the 1 seed like he should’ve been. Still has him with an 11 next to his name in certain results thoughHe doesn't. If you look at the brackets, he's the 1 seed. No idea why they keep showing him as the 11 seed on the score bug.
