U23 FS seeds released

Flo Arena stopped working so I don't know when our guys come up again, but I did get a text from Flo Alerts that Howard was assigned to Mat 16. But that was awhile ago and there have been a bunch of matches since then.
 
Seems like FloArena is no longer updating. Hope I don't miss these matches. Looks like Round 2 of Cadet finals is running on mat 16
 
Berge Conigliaro is on Mat 8, Berge up 2-0 off a double. Now up 4-0 after getting a leg and going behind. Gets a step out point now off another double, 5-0. Berge tried going inside trip, then dropped to the leg and picks up two more just before the period ends. 7-0.

Not much action halfway through. Both guys have traded failed shots. Minute left and Berge gets two more on another double. 9-0. Berge sprawls on Conigliaro's shot and easily goes behind to finish 11-0.

How awesome would it be if Howard could be a career 125? Wrestled 54KG two years ago and looks about 5'3". I hope so.
Don't know what his parents look like but it looks to me like whatever weight he puts on will be in the weight room and not from any growth spurt, kind of like NaTo.

Berge will eventually be on Mat 8. Phillippi Tucker is going on there right now (Tucker won the first), Pletcher Eierman after that (Eierman won the first). Pantaleo Hoffman will follow that (Pantaleo won the first). .

Was just going to say that Pletcher has nothing for Eierman in FS when he got to a leg and made four out of it, and now ahead on criteria 4-4 at break. Pletcher's left leg heavily wrapped above and below knee.

This match is wild now, Pletcher up 9-7, which might be the only time anyone ever types that. Eierman is a bit like Nolf in that he doesn't care if you score because he's going to score. Pletcher wins 12--11 and they'll go to a third match. Catch this one on replay if you can.

Berge will wrestle at U23s.

Berge Conigliaro coming up pretty quickly on Mat 8, probably, from the looks of Pantaleo Hoffman.

Pletcher looks like a completely different wrestler than I remember. He used to be very tentative and defensive but today he's been very aggressive and getting to a single leg seemingly at will.

Berge Conigliaro II up now, Berge wins and he's on U23 team. Conigliaro gets to an ankle, Berge twists around to counter, but Conigliaro finishes it, up 2-0. Berge gets to a leg, pushes toward the edge, finishes out of bounds to go up 2-2. Berge tries a leg sweep. Shot, reattack by Berge but settles for a step out, up 3-2. Break.

Berge in fast with a double, then a lace x2 for four more, but the the last two are being challenged by Conigliaro. Score at 9-2, pending review. Challenge fails, 10-2. Conigliaro gets a takedown off the whistle, 10-4, two minutes remaining. Berge goes up 12-4 off exposure after getting a leg. Berge, fighting off a single, hip tosses Conigliaro from one leg, wins 16-4. Great ending.

I would like to thank FLO for running Rocket Mortgage commercials during the matches.

Come on don't nit pick. It's not like we didn't get a commercial durning Berge's final, not! It wasn't great when Floarena went down as well leaving is blind to upcoming matches.

They are still the best thing going by far, but issues and misteps during big events continue to frustrate.

I've literally never had an ad mid-match. Get an ad-blocker, man.
 
So what happens with Singletary. I can't imagine Ryan redshirting Kerk.
 
What weight in lbs was berge wrestling ?
Heavier than 149?
 
Congrats Robbie Howard and Brady Berge! Great job this weekend!!

Not just Pletcher. Berge wrestled like a different person out there. I have only seen his matches from this season, so I do not know if it is the difference between folk & free or something else. He did look impressive today.
