RTC rosters

Cornell/Spartan Combat is the only one with a chance.

NLWC takes at least 4 of 6 from everyone else.

Can you imagine the bloodbath if Zain took on Anthony Echemendia or Sammy Sasso? Or Nolf vs Karchla? Yeesh. Or...Taylor/Nickal vs Trent Hidlay?
 
So, there are two significant (maybe) things missing from that list. PSU is the obvious first one. Can anyone spot the second?
 
The only question for me, how would NLWC do against an all-star team from the RTCs.

Here's how I see it

57 Gilman over Micic
65 Zain over Yianni (Can't believe Green can still get to 65 kgs)
74 Dake over Nolf/Joseph
86 Taylor/Bo over Gabe Dean
97 Snyder over Cox
125 Gwiz over Cassar

Hope I do not get attacked for this but I think Kerk is our best at 125kg for freestyle and I think he has more of a chance at beating Gwiz than Cassar does.
Also, they are doing it +3kg so Green only has to make 149 which should be ok for him, at least he thinks so.

micic took 5th at 2019 worlds, gilman lost to fix at final x. toss ups at 57, 65, and 97. taylor clearly takes 86 but dake and gwiz clearly take 74 and 125. i'd love to see it though!

I was going with a NLWC of post graduates, but yeah, it's not unreasonable to think that.

Gilman took the world silver medal in 2017, and beat fix at 2018 Final-X. I feel comfortable with my pick ... obviously just an opinion.

Is Cassar still actively training freestyle for the OTTs? Don't remember seeing him since his injury, did he do one of the NLWC events?
 
I just seen where J'den Cox is now out of this due to a positive Covid test.. Not saying it was his or not tho.
 
I thought this was a dual tournament, so why do I have to track the team score myself since Flo is NOT doing it?
 
We turn people on top in par terre now. Love it.

Also, these Ohio RTC singlets are fire, but it pains me that the little detail of getting Dhesi's country right was overlooked.

Hard to know what to make of a lot of these matches.

Were they actually required to make the Oly weights? Or were people wrestling +3kg, etc?

Top RTC is still NLWC. Is this the beginnings of a professional freestyle wrestling circuit? Would love to see it.
 
How much do you think

Gable wrestling only one match (ANelson wrestled in 1st for Gopher WC against MParris) while Gwiz wrestled back-to-back "duals"

may've factored into Gable's win?
Maybe a bit but after seeing how close they were last time and yesterday’s match I would be putting my money on Gable being the guy to make the team and yes I think he beats our guy Kirk. Just my opinion
