I’m sure some here will be watching. Heading to Hanover (actually Abbottstown) for the day, so will show up here occasionally for results.
Thanks in advance.

Spencer is going but Kemerer is not. No word why he’s out.

Good to see Spencer there. Maybe he can finally win a Midlands title.
Hopefully Kemerer is ok.
Yeah, but Army is there, and they already beat a #1 this year.
Imagine they win Midlands..they can knock off #1 and #2 in same season. SHP may have to make 102 twitter and forum posts instead of the 101 when Army took out PSU
one of the really nice things the brands do is explain to the wrestling community whats up and im sure this info will be out by mid afternoon if not earlier.
Im hoping its an illness for Kem, he deserves a healthy season of competition.
No it’s not. Losing half the programs in D1, add some other tournament, and clamp down on # of competition dates and you have the result. The South Beach Duals has pulled some good teams away from both the Midlands and the Scuffle with a familiar format and well....a nicer location.
I’m a skier. As a result I don’t usually go to bowl games but if Penn State cooks up the Killington Klassic, Steamboat Stomp or Woodshed Beating in Whistler....I’m there.
with previously mentioned beers.
Out of pocket soon, so thanks again to all that post results.
As for the tournament, it may not be what it once was, but it still has nearly 70 top-20 guys if everyone shows. Not bad at all, imo.
Oh, and who do y'all have winning 133.

Going with the homeboy, Rivera to beat both Gross and DeSanto.
Midlands still looks like a decent field, certainly much better than the Scuffle. Be interesting to see what tournament(s) we go to next year. From a fan perspective I wouldn't mind South Beach Duals at all, just based on the weather.
Just be careful where you make fun of The Iowa Open... lol
Also: I would say the Scuffle is weaker this year, no?

Seems like I'm saying this way more frequently than I ever would have anticipated back in the day, but the HWT field looks interesting. A glance, listing seed, wrestler, and InterMat ranking:
1-Cassioppi (#4)
2-Hillger (#5)
3-Stencel (#8)
4-Heino (#12)
5-Isley (#15)
6-Hokit (#13)
7-McKiernan (nr)
8-Elam (nr)
9-Q.Miller (nr)
I believe those last 3 guys are shirting. I'm very curious to see what Hokit does up a weight (if he is even in wrestling shape, yet). That top 4 should be fun to watch, though. Keep an eye on Elam.

With Teasdale at 133, and with Teas repeatedly beating on DeSanto in the room I would think Teasdale has a strong shot at 133. As long as he doesn't run into any D3 guys.
Come March the brackets generally don’t have many D3 guys in them, so there is hope....
Are you saying Teasdale is a D3 guy and we won’t see him no more come March?
jkI also like the Duals format. Those are usually exciting days. Been to Open style Duals in HS where we would borrow wrestlers from other teams if we had a gap. Fun stuff and lots of wrestling and cheering going on all the time.
Louie Hayes, Virginia Defeats Teasdale 3-1 in round of 32
Gross looked good w/ a 2nd period tech in his first match. DeSanto destroying guys early. Collision course on track.
In both matches, he's been unwilling to wrestle in close quarters, instead jumping backward to create space, hopping in place, shooting from space, and stopping dead on his knees as soon as he gets a leg. That's basically the tale of the tape.
yea.. maybe needs some more confidence. His takedown in OT was nice - on the right track.
Hard to roll up 24 points a match when you’re not an 18 year old Junior wrestling 14 year olds.
If teaz doesnt developed at psu that’s Cael’s fault, but if he doesn’t develop at Iowa he just didn’t have what it takes. Do I have that right? From a Hawkeye report perspective?
anybody know the schedule? I assume rd 16 this afternoon then quarters tonight? But , I dont like to assume.
He lost to a couple Sub D1 guys but its no big deal. He will be fine...
Not sure if anyone mentioned this.... If you have BTN+ and a PSU only subscription, you can watch the Midlands on BTN+ even tho PSU is not competing.
Schedule per Northwestern site. I assume those were central so adjusted them to Eastern after copying. Hopefully I did that correct. No idea how many consolation rounds they are wrestling today but I assume a lot since there is a bunch to get through.
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 29

Just heard them announce in the background that bout 446 will be the last bout of the session so it looks like they will do Round of 16 and this round of consolations together like they have been and then break until tonight. Down to 24 in each weight heading into tonight's session.
