PSU at the open

what is the reason/advantage in putting off registering our athletes?
Dunno why NLWC typically waits to enter but I doubt the reason has anything to do with tactics. Probably just someone at the NLWC not wanting to do work twice. They send a large contingent and maybe a few of those people are on the fence, easier to wait until you're sure of who you're sending. Pure speculation on my part but can't imagine a tactical reason.
 
Curious why Bo isn't being talked about at 86kg. He's not in Flo's preview so I assume he's not going but maybe Flo doesn't know. He's a pretty big name to omit form the preview if he winds up going. Maybe someone here knows something more concrete.

EDIT: never mind, he's registered.

Does PSU register them, since this isn't a PSU team event?

They usually register as NLWC members.

Tactics? Maybe. If that's it, you'll never heard it said out loud. From where I sit, they just want to get it right, and do it one time (register most of the guys all at once). Some are on the fence about going, for various reasons...and tikk was correct, again...it's a NLWC event for the guys.
 
Thanks I'm pretty invested ( which makes me unique) and the waiting sucks.
I'm guessing you're being very specific about this tournament, maybe you're going to attend? That's awesome if you are. Anyway, registering will happen soon enough.
 
Chance M wrestling under Dark Knights.....

Going to be some matches in Mens FS

EDIT: if Bo and DT wrestle who do you root for? Or do you just look away and pray for no injuries.

EDIT 2: same for ZPain and Frank....

EDIT 3: this is just going to be fun regardless
 
Fresno St wrestler, formerly with the NLWC, A.J. Nevills going at 120 in Juniors.
 
Hope Bo draws Downey!

Bo Pipher, Devin Schnupp, Joe Lee, Nick Lee, and Mark Hall also registered for Juniors

Could see Hall/McFadden.

No Berge, RBY, or Teasdale.
Teasdale going (already noted above in separate post), as well as Lindenmuth and Friery. Matt Brown going, too, also Mason Manville going in Greco.

You count your blessings, and be grateful for the chance, as a fan, to observe all the fun...

Thanks ive gone before not this year. I went once with Tony Dehaven. He was one of Dave Schultz's training partners at the time of his death. Tony was the the only Foxcatcher to maintain his friendship with DuPont after the murder. He became a pariah and left the sport. A few years later we became friends and he decided to get back into it. My wife and I cornered him and had the time of our life. Dave Schultz's widow publicly embraced Tony and asked him to dinner with her crew. I watched a match next to Dan Gable. Cael was competing and cruising along with a wake of worshippers and I got to see him crush a few people. Needless to say the event is big on my calendar.
 
NLWC at the open according to FLO:

Juniors Freestyle: Schnupp 55kg, Lindenmuth 60kg, Nick Lee 63KG, Bo Pipher 66kg, Mark Hall 74kg

Seniors Freestyle: Megaludis 57kg, Conaway 61KG, Zain & Tank 65kg, Nolf 70kg, Nickal & Taylor 86kg and Matt Brown (Army) for 74kg

Seniors Greco: Mason Manville (Army) 75kg

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but are Juniors and Seniors in the same gym area or completely separate events?

I just googled the schedule and got on to the USA wrestling home page. There's a US open tab that brings you to the full event schedule.

The scoreboards might not have enough digits to contain the score of a Taylor - Nickal match. However, I would worry more about the wear and tear of a Retherford - Molinaro match. That one could be a brute strength match.
 
I do wonder why Joseph has been omitted so far. Trying to figure out if he's going 70 or 74?
