Guys been around the block a few times. Plenty of injuries. Hell … I remember seeing him down at the Southern Scuffle against RBY when he still had his shirt on. He’s gotta be tired.
Interesting match ups tonight
- Thread starter jmadden1998
- Start date
I grew up in Boston in the seventies and watching the Red Sox. I still know most of the names of the line ups from that era. The 1978 Yankees too (they might have been the most entertaining team I ever saw until the Cael era at PSU). There was a player from that time called Tony Conigliaro. An outfielder from the Boston area. He had the kind of name an elementary age kid loved to say. His career was cut short by getting hit by a pitch and would die young but he was really loved. Whenever I see that there is a Conigliaro wrestling at Harvard I hope he is part of that family and that they are having a new chapter in a new sport.
As I commented before, a pinner is a pinner. They are willing to take risk. Always scary in tournaments.
Lewan thinks the lowest score wins!!
Re: Sergio Lemley (UM) bio states "Uncle, Angel Escobedo, is head coach of the Indiana wrestling program" Interesting.
Lewan has wrestled 25 overtime matches (19-6) ... this doesn't count the 4 he wrestled as an RS Fr.
He's wrestled 39 matches where the winning score was 3 pts or less and 53 with a winning score of 4 pts or less.
There must be some records in there somewhere.

Scary, but getting way behind then looking for a pin isn’t an optimal strategy to win tournaments, either.
Mesenbrink would have him DQ’d for stalling in the first period. LOL.
Was behind Yanni and then got jerked around by Cornell admin. Hoping he has a good freestyle career in the near future, but otherwise wrestling got him an Ivy degree so hard to complain about that.
Oh come on, we're talking about Lewan here. There is no amount of points that would entice him to take a shot.
Make a takedown 25 points and thus an immediate tech fall? He's still not shooting until OT, if then.
I had to read this several times for my brain to process that you weren't saying "8th year señorita." I was thinking, wow that's a long transition period.
Do they have any outright favorites over PSU? 133 with the way Aaron has looked this year. Aaron beat him last year despite losing the TD battle. TDs being 3 now wouldn't help his cause especially since he hasn't looked his best. Maybe 184? I still think that is a tossup.
I’m not saying that NC State could beat Penn State in a dual. It’s just that they have good wrestlers at a lot of our best weights. We wouldn’t be getting bonus points where we would normally expect to see them.
Yeah, I noticed Gabe “The Mallard” Arnold who was mysteriously absent last week is ready to go today.
Nicolar Rivera v Brody Teske
Teske with some quick backs on Rivera early in the 1st.
Teske definitely looking for a fall today.
Teske with the TF in the 2nd.

19 Joseph Zargo v 8 Caleb Rathjen
Rathjen up 4-0 in the 3rd and hurt his knee. Zargo about to get 3 when Rathjen Desanto'd it.

Terrible by the ref. Should have been a TD for Zargo. Not nearly the same as Desanto. He wasn’t about to be pinned.
Amazing recovery by Caleb fighting off that horrendous injury and collecting another TD.
Rathjen wins 8-0
Rathjen wins 8-0
wasn’t rooks the one who beat him at big tens last year? might be a particularly tough match up, but gomez definitely isn’t firing on all cylinders right now.
also I said at the time of the Kasak match, there aren’t many guys more volatile than rooks. i highly doubt that’s a tech fall if they wrestle again and rooks winning would surprise, but not shock me.
embarrassing lack of class. don’t blame rathjen for the ref’s mistake.
i love this idea that franek doesn’t attack. he attacks a ton. finishing on the other hand…
He'd have been down 4-3 and on top against a guy who was gassing. He cried to get a stoppage which preserved his 4-0 lead and let him catch his breath against a guy who was pressing the action. That stoppage has a MASSIVE effect on the outcome.
Bono has the hawks looking good. Not a lot of pushing, they’re shooting, looking to score. Has them looking like a top 4ish team.
