Bill Farrell 2018 thread

[tikk10]

Will try to get up there today at some point with my camera. Not sure who's wrestling in it today other than Gable Stevenson. No entry list that I can see on Track, nor any idea if any PSU guys are going.

Flo covering.

Brackets up on Flo Arena.

74 kg has Franklin Gomez and Dan Vallimont on opposite halves. Jon Gingrich is at 215 kg. No other PSU.

Dieringer at 79 kg is the only other Senior World Team member competing. Only other NCAA champ is Seth Gross at 61 kg -- that weight is loaded with Graff, Waters, and Schopp.

A few surprises, for example I had no idea Kenny Courts was still competing.

And Mike Evans is not impressed with his bracket at 79 kg.

Thanks Jefe, I just looked at the brackets and came away with the same mental notes you helpfully already provided. Was equally surprised to see Kenny Courts name there. He's going to be disappointed when the ref won't let him stall from bottom.

I don't see Gable in the brackets?

Yeah, you're right. I had read on Twitter that he was going. Also read that Cory Clark was going and he's not there either. Pretty down year for the Bill Farrell, maybe impacted by the fact that the World Cup is next week. Biggest US name at the tournament is Dieringer.

Gross beats an out of shape Badrudinov.

Or not covering as the case may be.

Took a few seconds, but I laughed out loud as the kids like to say.

Think the usual date for this tournament is a lot better, coming right off the NCAA tournament and a week before the World Cup kind of hard to get the best competition in. I would’ve went today if I wasn’t so sick would’ve been nice to meet ya tikk

Written like a statement.

Punctuated like a question.

Oh great, now I'm the jerk who made a Kenny Courts joke up thread. Good on him.

Hey 94, sorry to hear you're not feeling well. My significant other wound up having plans that superseded my Bill Farrell plans so I wisely deferred to her. But yeah, would love to bump into you someday. Maybe Beat the Streets, they're not doing Times Square this year, they're down by the South Street Seaport.

May 17th, starting at 3:00. I'm going to try to get over there again.

Note to Foley: freestyle put Courts down 9-0 in the semis. Folkstyle got him the win.
