Good point. Gassing and having to hold on for dear life is completely fine and shouldn't be addressed. If anything they should do the opposite and have him wrestle a complete match in the practice room before taking the mat at Nationals so he can be out of gas from the very beginning since it doesn't matter at all.

Beau might end up the 1 according to NCAA seeding math. I'm too lazy to calculate that right now, especially when the coaches' rank is likely to change.
But the NCAA Wrestling Committee can overrule the math by +/- 3 spots. Will they really allow a conference 3rd to get the 1 seed over every conference champ?
Guessing Happel (currently 4th in the coaches poll) will get the 1 seed if he wins B12s.
Glad Maryland coach ducked the last match of season to get that 1 seed for Miller. Worked out well😂
It's always nice to see Ethen Miller lose.
3.5
.5 for advancement, 3 for difference between 6th and 4th place plus any bonus.
The 3/4 and 5/6 place matches are 0 advancement, 1 pt for placement plus bonus.
Was watching on track - apparently Davis was called for stalling twice on top despite the fact he already had 4 NF in first period. Utter bullshit the consistency of the way top stalling is called... - Bartlett spent much of his time on bottom on his feet yesterday and not a single top-stall.... worse yet, Vombaur rewarded with a RT point for that bullshit where he never attempted to score from top and never really had a controlling ride on Bartlett. Folk needs to do something about their "Riding Time Rules" - many of the "rides" we see in these matches are not worthy of rewarding with points.
The only thing that matters for Beau is avoiding Allirez/Mendez until the finals. Other than that the only thing that can stop him from wrestling on Saturday night is if he decides not to try and score.
I'm now a Blaze Family fan. After watching interviews with Marcus and Joey's sportsmanship I'm in the fan club!
Paddy takes 7th by MFF over Minto. SMH.
What do you think they can do about gassing in the next 2 weeks, that doesn't tax him unnecessarily as the team tries to peak physically and mentally for NCAAs?
Try to relax and trust the coaches.
so it worked out for tan tom??
Kennedy giving up a late TD to Kharchla and loses 4-2. Ouch
Brands looks like he doesn't even want to be there.
Deakin did that to Nolf so he wouldn't get teched.
Stallarnold vs Ruth mat 2 right now
The Edmund Ruth vs Gabe Arnold match should be fireworks [sarcasm].
Surprisingly, Arnold-Ruth scoreless after 1.
Minto looks like talented kid. Unfortunately, like for Labriola, Pinto, Allred, Hardy... not a lot of development in WoManning's room.
I thought the three point takedown was going eliminate the stalling contests.
