A quick writeup with a couple quotes as Penn State cruised to its 26th straight


Wrestling: Penn State picks up 7 of 10 at Wisconsin to win, 33-11

Cenzo will learn from this loss. Took Jordan down with 20 seconds to go for a 4-2 lead. Went out of bounds and back to the middle for a restart. Cenzo should have cut him. Instead hung on the leg and Jordan got a reversal to send it to OT. At that point of the match, you give up 1, not 2.

Team looked good. Cenzo and Nevills will both learn from this experience and be better for it.

Wiscy had two experienced, higher ranked guys come from behind late to sneak out wins, at home. It is the end of January........We are fine.

After the weekend, it is easy to see:
Zain / Nolf = 1
Suri/ Bo = 2.......could go higher
Nick / Cenzo = top 5, but tough to go all the way
Hall - Top 5, could win it all.
Jimmy / Cutch = AA

Lots of bonus.

In the fall, we could talk about this happening and wonder.......now, we are watching it happen. If that isn't good enough to win, congrats in advance to a heck of a team champion.

I've seen this comment several times now. But isn't that an elementary concept for a wrestler of Cenzo's experience?

his OT shot looked like he was anticipating Jordan stepping towards him and he was wrong...

So, if I understand correctly...give the 1, then get on your horse? That's not the DNA of this team, and certainly not what Cael teaches. I can see a wrestler at risk of an imminent reversal scooting to give up the one, but even that flies in the face of the fight these guys have against every takedown, every reversal, etc.

Imagine the message board reaction if Cenzo cut Jordan for the escape and then gave up a takedown to lose in regulation.

True dat

The TD and reversals were all scored from seemingly similiar positions....I'm are the coaches will work with Joseph on that, and we'll see a cleaner match next time.

Is the match available on Big10 Network archive? For the life of me, I can't figure out that site. Link?
