This is my first year watching Super 32 and I have a couple questions about the best way to go about it. The event is being streamed by Flo and I already have Flo Pro so that's a good start.

The Super 32 website says it's being held on 27 mats so I'm assuming there will be 27 streams. Can I only watch one at a time or is there like a multi-view that will allow for 2 or 4 mats simultaneously?

Will there be commentary on all 27 mats, 1 or 2 main mats, or zero mats?

How can I track who's going to be on what mat when? Will that info be on TrackWrestling like it is for NCAAs? Track has their own streaming events so would they refuse to support Super 32 since it's on a competitor?

Should I plan to waste my entire weekend watching or is it only worth watching like the round of 16 or quarterfinals and later?

Who should I be rooting for other than our PSU boys? I'm only seeing Busiello and Teske and they're both at 120, did I miss anyone?

Thanks in advance for any help.

If you access it via their website, there is usually a multi-view where you can watch 2 mats simultaneously. You also have the option of watching a single mat full screen.

Early rounds there usually is sporadic commentary for high profile wrestlers. When you get into the later rounds there is usually commentary for 2-4 mats.

Early rounds I will usually use the FloArena dashboard to track what matches I want to watch, you can go right to live video from the dashboard.

Watching the early rounds can be difficult unless you know what wrestlers you are looking for. Brackets are huge and there are a lot of preliminary matches to get through.

I'm not sure who's going among the Penn State recruits/curious but with respect to watching on Flo, Flo Arena (arena.flowrestling.org) performs more or less the same function as Track in terms of following the results from all the mats. Flo's Arena has the benefit of not timing out and continually requiring you to watch videos, like Track. You can watch multiple matches simultaneously via a split screen, but you can also use multiple browser tabs. There's rarely commentary on the early matches and sometimes for these events there's no score/names on the screen, so you'd need to have Arena open to know who's actually wrestling.

S32 is a bear to cover on Day 1.

Day 2 is awesome. The start of day 2 has four mats next to each other with all the quarters. it's one of my favorite rounds in wrestling.

but day 1 is chaos. they've gone to assigning weights to specific mats for the entire day, but there are like 20 mats in 1 room and 15 in another.

for big tournaments with that many mats we typically go with 'flo zone' so that you can tune in to that for all the major developments and not miss any big moments. but that's impossible with mats in two rooms because it's physically impossible to see everything that's going on.

The best process is to go to arena and sign up for alerts which will send messages to your phone when the kids you want to track get assigned to a mat and when their result is final.

Just have been reading some Flo articles and I think Diceman should add Alex Facundo to our 2021 targets. I don't recall raiding the state of Michigan for talent!

Any one with a Flo subscription should check him out (145). It was pointed out on Flo that a coach know for his recruiting mentioned that young Facuno might be the best high school wrestler from neutral. Hope that coach was one of Cael, Cody and Casey;)
