Here is something I didn't expect heading into the tournament: Bergen Catholic has more finalists than Iowa

He came away from the rape allegations and time in County a changed man.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down egghead!
Thought he had Gable a couple times. But to Stevesons credit, he's a freak athlete in every way. Just too much speed, agility, power. In my semi uninformed opinion, this version of Gable is the absolute perfect wrestler.
You can tell he wrestles Kerk a little different. Which is a credit to Kerk.
Watching the Gable interview. He's another who has gone from a cocky ass to a great young man. Wrestling will be less without him.
HR theory (and I've seen it posted here recently also) Apparently Gable takes it easy on Kerk because they're friends.
Get real, brah. Ant the Champ made Gable the man he is.
As much flak as Schultz and Wood may get for being old school heavies, they’re both world class Greco guys and exceptionally strong as evidenced by that late flurry. Both of them are full sized heavies too which makes Wood’s double leg lift and Schultz’s counter all the more impressive
Chances of locking it up in the morning? Basically if we're 12 points ahead of Michigan at the end of the morning, we lock a share (barring spikes) but obviously, it's more like if we're up by 8.5 since it's hard envisioning Suriano/Amine bonusing their counterpart and us going 0-5.
I think Schultz beats Gable tomorrow.
...assuming Gable has the late-night shrimp at the hotel.

Where’s that guy that figured out kids that transferred schools in junior high when you need him?
I don't need to know any math or do any math to know it is locked up.
I will fully admit there was about 10 seconds of excitement at the very end of the match. Until that point my point stands - yawn
was hoping to see Kerk with a 110% committed blast double like Cassar….
Also, maybe he hasn't forgotten that Kerk's coach was Cassar's coach, too.
Excellent day of wrestling. Our 6 studs just carrying this team. We are very fortunate to have guys with the targets on their backs every match and they step up time after time
We're up by 23.5. If Michigan's 4 guys all get 3rd tomorrow without bonus, they get 18 (and that's assuming Kerk loses out lol) Then assuming a Suriano decision win, if we counter with a Lee decision win (only guy who is a noticeable favorite over his counterpart in the finals), then Myles needs to pin Aaron Brooks to get the team title win. I'm pretty sure Kerk has Parris and if he wins, that more or less ends Michigan.
So, we're sitting pretty good overall.

Here's my annual "I'm drunk and angry at numbers, cause there's too damn many of them".
Beckman continues to obliterate the irony meter.
Like I said after B1Gs - PSU would replicate their 5 B1G Finalists at Nationals and scUM wouldn't. Predicted PSU would have 5 Finalists and 6 or 7 AAs.... and since nobody else could match this top-end firepower, that PSU would win easily while Gunsie was busy telling us how much trouble we were in because we had too many holes in our lineup... blah, blah, blah.......
That is a 90% win percentage. Absolutely insane!
Michigan is looking at 4th and 10 and a full court press.
In all seriousness barring a monumental collapse this thing is over. It’s got to be like a 1/1000 likelihood Michigan catches the good guys.
He’s salty because now he’s not the best Reynolds kid in the last 50 years.
Wasn't Schultz one of the highest team-point scorers of the Tournament thru the 4th RD???
Tomorrow morning:
Lewan vs Carr
Amine vs Hamiti
Massa vs Kemerer
Parris vs Kerk
Yeah I feel pretty good about those anti Michigan matchups (except maybe Kemerer but damn, he's battling)

I think a lot of that was Cassar making him humble.
Lewan vs Carr - advantage Carr
Amine vs Hamiti - push slight edge Hamiti
Massa vs Kemerer - push
Parris vs Kerkvliet - advantage Kerk
That coukd be a lot of 5/6 matches.
I am thinking if things break correctly...

Why not. Look how much success Marinelli has had with that strategy.
