Does the visiting coach decide what weight or is it a coin flip?I think not having LL be the first match against a veteran in hostile territory is a potential plus too, although I also believe he’d be very ready for it.
Sometimes I analyze these things from a team tactical perspective and then suddenly I’m at ease when I realize again Cael’s the coach. He has a plan haha

Cael always does the traditional start.Duals typically start at 125 pounds, though, technically, the rule book simply says "Immediately after the weigh-in for a dual meet or multiple dual meets conducted on the same day, coaches may mutually agree to determine the starting weight class for the matches." Again, coaches typically agree on 125 pounds, but there's often a strategy behind a coach choosing not to start at 125 pounds. If the coaches do not agree to start at a given weight, they will flip a coin, and the winner of the coin toss can choose the starting weight. Regardless of which weight coaches choose to start at, the weight classes will then proceed in sequential order. For instance, if, for some reason, the dual starts at 165 pounds, the next bout will be 174 and so on.

Yeah they get mean on top I like it. As opposed to the Iowa ride and hang onAs a collective, I think this is Caels best team from top position.
That's saying something, considering Cael had a team with Taylor, Ruth, and Molinaro.As a collective, I think this is Caels best team from top position.
