I think Cael said Thanksgiving wasn't kind to the team. I'm thinking that means guys got sick or didn't make weight
Penn St. Lehigh
- Thread starter rmg78
- Start date
It played havoc on my descent plan as well
Imagine if Carr (or anyone) can give OToole a loss and Mitch wins out!
#1 seed baby!

I always enjoy listening to the press conferences with Cael and his wrestlers. I think he is so genuine in everything he says. I don’t think he thinks twice about wrestling Steen. For whatever reason, Steen was ready and that’s it. Not an ounce of criticism either. Gary wrestled hard and had a shot at the end. Levi figured it out towards the end, and that’s great. If Levi had lost today, it would be no big deal to Cael - none at all. Kasak, a tough PA kid, almost lost it at the end but found a way to win. And that’s great, he toughed it out. I’ll bet we analyze it so much more than Cael does. It’s wrestling - you just go out and wrestle.
And if SVN or AB didn’t make weight, I’m sure it doesn’t thrill him, but I don’t think he makes a big deal of it. You make weight, you wrestle. You don’t make weight, you don’t.

Has he improved to the point that would make Mrs Lee bend up her glasses? That's the bar we've set now.🙂
If you had PSU 's wrestling offense in football you'd never have to worry about punting.
Definetly saw SVN a few times on TV. I believe he led team out of tunnel as well in a video I saw. Didn’t see AB
Mesenbrink wrestles like he’s got somewhere to be in 10 minutes and he fully expects to be 5 minutes early.
It would be during the Ridge Riley award presentation by Byers. But I don’t know if the radio station will have a replay. GoPSu sports ****ed up so you only hear music
They hung a national championship banner today and Cael became the winningest coach in Penn State history. I don't care if the punter is todays version of Matt Bahr.
Sadly I suspect it's lost forever. LionVision archives are playing music. The radio station that streamed the match does not appear to have archives, either on its website or its parent company's site.
Some people need something to complain about.
Can you please tell us how you really feel about it? I don't necessarily pick up on it with your 2-3 messages on every page within every thread.
Interviewer: “how is it working with the two new guys, Bernie and Mitchell?”
CStar: “great! Bernie Is tall and lanky and gives me some good looks. Mitchell is a psycho.”
Not sure why we sent steen out…read somewhere that it was a last minute decision…..not sure what’s going on with Howard…..something still seems off with him, he many never be right again, hopefully he surprises me….just wait to lightning Luke gets in the lineup
Where did that nickname come from? South Park?
Did anyone else catch Mesenbrink's last words in that post-dual presser? He said, "I'm excited for what's coming."
Well, dip me in sh*t & roll me in breadcrumbs. I excited too! Mitchell's quickly becoming one of my favorite wrestlers! He reminds me of a young Norman Bates!

Nearly every year we have a December swoon dual, I suspect there was an even blend of tough post-Thanksgiving cuts and recovery from sickness. That said There was no need to give Leigh a 40-0 drubbing. Check that 37-3. We should have a few shutouts this year that will just seem like pilling on. This is no doubt the strongest team we have ever had.
Levi had the most curious performance despite the never in doubt pull away victory. My bet, he was sick recently.
I thought NILgao wrestled just fine. Crookham is the real deal. What has he beaten 4 top 10 wrestlers now as a Freshman in his first month? If anything I see Crookham distancing himself from Aaron as the season goes on. That's ok with me, Aaron is still top 4 material and we are lucky to have him. I see Crookham having one more loss this year, and that will be against Vito, who wrestled very sloppily against him the last time.

I really think Steen has improved in all phases and in knowing these coaches, if you took him to Beaver Stadium I'd bet his punt hang time has also improved!
Would the powers to be at Rec Hall please return to posting the wrestlers names on the scoreboard during their respective match. I don't always hear the names when they take the mat and I drive the poor guy next to me batty asking him.
It's also more difficult as the program only lists the visitors probable starters.
I know, you all will say I should have studied the Roster better over the summer.
Good match, it was fun.
Now I feel better.
Good night Mrs. Calabash wherever you are!

He reminds me a lot of Nolf. He's always moving forward, lots of half shots to get reactions, kind of seems to be toying with his prey and he's not afraid to mix it up and give up a takedown. Hopefully he doesn't have any type of hard cut and can stay fresh all season, it will mean he's in peak condition at Nationals while other guys have been starving themselves for months.Did anyone else catch Mesenbrink's last words in that post-dual presser?

If I hear one more person say that Steen has improved I am going to poke my eyes out with a steak knife. He lost again! again! He will not qualify for nationals, if he does he will score ZERO points. Let Davis wrestle!!!

All Steen jokes aside. Has improved. Still not likely a NQ. And of the three was the last one I thought we’d see yesterday.
I thought the stall calls were fairly consistent and good calls. Even the stalemates were ok and helped us as much as hurt us. Both the stalls and stalemates encouraged wrestling.
‘if more matches were called like this one it would be a better product.
