Breaking: Dean Heil Wins OW and Hodge Trophy

[Real_Proposition_Joe]

Citing an incredible 5-0 run in the National Tournament, Oklahoma State wrestler and national champion Dean Heil has been selected as the tournament's Outstanding Wrestler. He was also selected to receive the Hodge Trophy for the most dominant wrestler during the entire course of the season. Voters for the award pointed to his undefeated regular season record as the main reason for selecting Heil for the prestigious honor

Not only that, but he shattered the previous record for smallest total margin of victory, set by him in 2016.

This is satire at its best.

Curious why you are putting so much energy into hating on a kid who has put so much work into achieving his goals and not celebrating the amazing accomplishments of the lions?

In the 4 years Heil wrestled Collica in the practice room, after a hundred or so hours of live wrestling, Heil won 5-3.

Well he did end undefeated, so it's hard to argue with it.

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Its weak.

I thought it was funny. Seriously though, I do respect Heil's accomplishments. He always finds a way to win. And 141 was one of the deepest weight classes this year.

 

[greenmanRD]

Heil is great, he doesn't seem like he's a super fun person, and he always wrestles close matches. But, he always finds ways to win, it's super impressive.

You'd think at some point he'd just get caught or be put in a non-control fall situation, yet it never happens.

It happened once.

 

[a_mshaffer]

Probably the most picked undefeated wrestler to lose

 

[CowboyUp61]

It happened once.

I saw what you did there.... LOL

 

[raslen007]

Its weak.

Then go back to the OSU board where they bring up the ped state thing on a regular basis. Talk about weak!

 

[drock1971]

I saw 2 more dominat wrestlers on Penn St & 2 more nationwide than Heil IMO.
Congrats on his incredible dedication to his trade....but.....wrong guy won.
