LIVE THREAD: Penn State vs. Lehigh (Sunday, Dec. 5th, 2 PM)

graduated in 2018 but wasn’t a full time college student for the first two years so his eligibility clock started late. He’ll be around for a while.
Wrestlestat shows 2019 and 2020 as him wrestling in opens. 2021 was a free year for everyone. So Negron is anywhere from a freshman to a redshirt Sophomore.

I realize these early duals don’t mean much in the scheme of things but man gotta give credit to Edsell these last 2 matches. Two tossups and two wins.
Ball came up big as well.
No clue what’s up with Joe Lee but I’ll take the kid we saw today over BearClaw all day.
Bartlett had some brain farts today, but not too concerned with him. Feel like he’ll be in close ones all year.
 
Great weekend for Ball! That’s what you do when you get your opportunity. Win two big matches!

edit: and give your team options to deal with the flu at HWT
 
Davis in a shot but Dean with a nice sprawl, a knee block and then gets behind to make it 2-0.
 
Someone needs to get Ironhead a headset with mic attached. The audio is going in and out every 10-15 seconds.

Dean provides the exclamation point on a contentious and surprising dual.

Two extra matches. Stay tuned. Blumer vs. Storm at 149. Then Bear Claw at 157.
 
Really liked what we saw today at 157. It was just one match, but I’m excited to see him wrestle more.

Not concerned at all about BB. He opened up a bit and gained some good experience for doing it. Really thought he had that escape too.

Edsell just keeps winning. And if there was a reason to be concerned about his close wins, we have someone pretty good waiting in the wings.

Kudos to Lehigh. They brought it. Respect.

What does that mean, exactly?

It's an early season match with a bunch of guys still getting over a flu that swept through the team. A team with 4 defending national champions and 6 total guys ranked in the top 5.
It means we are not a bonus point machine like we are used to. That's how we make up points we won't be getting at nationals. That's all.
 
Iowa vs. Penn State match.. Rivera as the ref..
Who does he piss off the most?

Wood weighed in at 281.

I'm old enough to remember him as a HS 220.
I remember when Woods was wrestling for Boyertown HS. They all dyed their hair blonde and styled it the same way. They looked like a bunch of clones. You couldn't tell one from another, even Woods.
Which reminds me: We wrestled Harriton HS in 1964. Every one of them had the front part of their hair dyed blonde with a Beach Boys cut.
Just goes to show you, there's nothing new under the sun.

You guys have something in common with Brands and myself. We all agree Rivera is garbage. He has changed the outcome of so many matches. He needs to be removed!
The NCAA “It’s all about me” ref of the decade!
