Match Thread Maryland Dual Discussion/PBP

[nerfstate]

Wrestlestat picks another shutout. If all the starters go, that will be no surprise. I hear the place is sold out, and will likely have lots of PSU fans attending. A pity the Terps best guy is at 197--but I like how they compete. I expect more like MSU than Mich. And it will be bittersweet if Greg faces off vs. Seth. What do you think?

Oh, and I have today's media availability up:

I thought Nevills was injured.

I thought Nevills was injured.

He came back and wrestled this past weekend. Didn't do well, though.

Lost 4-2 to Nick Willham from Indiana.

 

[McScoreley]

100% my speculation but with something seemingly going around the room and this being the last travel date before Iowa, wouldn't be surprised if we brought a few backups.

197 is the big matchup but I don't think it'll be super competitive (huge Smith fan though)

The mom of the Terp 184lber is the son of a State High Wrestling Cheerleader form back in the 80s

The mom is somebody’s son? I guess it is 2024.

I’ll have to dig out the yearbook now. Was she the same class as us? Initials?

Nice change to the camera angle during the interviews. We now have a better view of the dodgeball game.

Class of 87. A.K. were her initials

Totally off topic, but what class were you guys? I was Bellefonte '83, but knew tons of people from State High.

Good stuff as usual nerf. MM is remarkably articulate and thoughtful for his age.

So cool that he is into stoicism!

 

[PSUAllTheWay]

I put the over/under on MD takedowns at one. I'm taking the under.

 

[onetime1]

83 State High

 

[PSUbluTX]

He's probably just enrolled in an intro to philosophy class this semester. 😂

Did you know Scott Corl? He wrestled Rob Koll that year (83-84). I believe Rob wrestled up a weight class to meet him in the dual.

Dug out the yearbook. I do remember her. Found the wrestling section also. A good trip down memory lane!! Thank you!

 

[Agoodnap]

MM was great.

"So being with the best coaches in the world, and that's kinda a fact"

State High ‘84

Yes, I knew Scott Corl. He was a year or two behind me in school, but I knew him from school and also knew him because a girl I was dating (State High) knew the family or was a cousin of some sort, so I'd run into him/them occasionally at parties and such. The Corls were good wrestlers, but damn did they bring out the best (or the worst) in the fans. I can remember fisticuffs in the gym multiple times when they were wrestling. I also have a Corl story that's very funny that I can't/won't post here. A friend and I were talking about this stuff just last night and Bill Koll's name came up and several stories about Rob Koll and Scott Corl ensued.

 

[psumacw]

how early do you think we need to show up to get decent seats, given that this is general admission and sold out?

 

[nerfstate]

If so, wouldn't change much in my mind. Kids are the future and whatnot. I had a lot figured out at that age too. I wish I could remember half of it . . .

 

[phelpsp]

I got to the match two years ago an hour and a half early. Sat next to the Hildebrandts. They open at that time.

I was probably hanging around with my dad at this point in my life.

yes

Did you know Scott Corl? He wrestled Rob Koll that year (83-84). I believe Rob wrestled up a weight class to meet him in the dual.

yes. My recollection is Robbie was at 155# and Scott was 185#. They met at 167#. Afterwards Corl went back up [too much cut] and Rob went back to 155 [except for the match w/Sidorick].
BTW: Overflowed gyms for both Bellefonte @SC and SC @P-O to see those matches.

State High ‘84

Same

 

[Nitfan]

NOON!!!

When do doors open?

Been checking Ticketmaster daily. Nothing

Looks like Kasak and Evans are both heading to Lock Haven for the Mattown open, who goes versus MD?
