Josh Barr, welcome to the show.

Welcome to being a big part of the show.

That was a demolition.

Gotta love the SEN announcers saying nobody expected that result. Apparently didn't see the BK tournament results. At any other school, Cochran or Mirasola are the undisputed starter and ranked or headed to being ranked.

Was Crookman's takedown the only one Lehigh got? That is amazing

Thanks for the PBP Pete! Greatly appreciated.
 
And with Beard you're like dude there is such a thing as cardio, just get on the frigging bike.
IMO it's totally different in wrestling. We'd run 3 miles every day, live wrestle, do conditioning and then I'd go home and run another 5-6 miles. Every match I'd be dead in the 3rd period because I couldn't control the adrenaline. It probably didn't help that I couldn't eat either.
