WTT

I can't find anything that shows who is registered for WTT at Juniors or Seniors. Any information?
 
Still haven;t seen anything that says Nolf is going up. Just speculation.
Flo article above cites "USA Wrestling" as the source.

I logged into USA Wrestling (I'm a media member) and can see the registrations. I'll paste everyone going from PSU/NLWC

57 kg - Joshua Rodriguez
61 kg - Nico Megaludis (as Titan Mercury)
65 kg - Zain Retherford
74 kg - Jason Nolf
74 kg - Dan Vallimont (as NYAC)
79 kg - Mark Hall
79 kg - Geno Morelli
92 kg - Riley Lefever
92 kg - Bo Nickal
125 kg - Nick Nevills
67 kg - Jarod Verkleeren (Greco)

@NoVa Lion owes us a brew for this round of internetting for him lol
 
Any word on Juniors? RBY? Brooks? S.Nevills? Beard? Howard? Bartlett?
 
Interesting that Tagg is at 57Kg. Then again, RBY will (reportedly, he's not on Tikk's gSheet yet) have Vito to contend with. Would love to see him earn a team slot, obviously--the experience could do wonders for him.

Any info on Beard? Anyone know why he didn’t wrestle at the open? Would love for him to compete. I think he would make the team at 92 kg.
 
Interesting that Tagg is at 57Kg. Then again, RBY will (reportedly, he's not on Tikk's gSheet yet) have Vito to contend with. Would love to see him earn a team slot, obviously--the experience could do wonders for him.

Unless I’m missing something, Gabe Tagg is still registered at 61 kg. His brother Julian is at 57.
 
I'm color blind so it all looks the same

Re. Nolf…moving up was the right move, now let's see what happens.

Wrestle the match, best guy wins, no excuses. Anything can happen.

Wrestler (in this case, Jason) goes in believing in himself, regardless who's across from him.
 
Just checked junior brackets..no S. Nevills? No Cassioppi? Injuries?

Other thing I though was odd..Brooks is obvious favorite, but on FloArena, he's not seeded and has the 1 seed Plott round 1? RBY has bye and then will have Decatur round 2

Does Berge have junior eligibility left?

The brackets are all messed up at this point and we're supposed to be 6 minutes from start time. Disappointing. Brooks will not wrestle the challenge tournament

Berge is out of junior eligibility. Maybe he enters U23s?

Switch to the "Default Pool," where you will see the correct brackets and seeds.

I still see Brooks facing the Challenge Tourney 1 seed in round 1 in the Default Pool. That cannot be correct. Plott probably just has a 1st round bye, though (and AB is waiting in the best of 3 finals).
 
I wonder how much Franklin Gomez recently taking Burroughs to the wire (JB scored winning takedown with no more than 1-2 seconds on the clock) factored into Nolf moving up now. I believe Gomez is a NLWC guy so no doubt that Nolf has spent countless hours rolling with him. No matter what did/didn't go into the decision, I think moving up ASAP better prepares Nolf for the Olympic Trials next year, which most likely is a much bigger goal than the Worlds this year.

FWIW, registration lists haven't changed for either JRs or SRs.

Yeah--I get the "but he'd get great experience if he'd compete in worlds this year" narrative. But if I'm Jason, I'd want to measure myself against iMar and (God willing) JB before it's all on the line for the Olympics. I've seen it said he has a lot to learn about Freestyle--and that may be true; not taking the step out against Green the prime example. But on the other hand, I think the international wrestlers probably have no idea what they are in for with Nolf. Kind of like DT, I think Jason will really flummox and confuse a large portion of the international competition.

I imagine RBY will be up fairly soon. I think 57KG is the only weight with a round of 16. Though Juniors are only going on two mats.
 
Vito Arujau looked solid out of the gate. He's built a little like Nico, all limbs, and wrestles a bit like him too.
I don't really see him being challenged much in this bracket. Remind me--who's waiting in the finals?
 
What happened with Kirkliviet? Injured?

Seems a lot of good juniors not competing..especially at the upper weights

I believe he reaggravated his knee injury at a tourney this past winter. Was it Schultz? My guess is he's rehabbing from surgery, but it's only a guess. No idea on Cass and Seth though.

And even Gable..he didn't medal last year, so he won't be able to do both like last year. Unless he thinks he winning Seniors, don't get it

I think he thinks he wins Seniors. Pyles does too--though no one else on FRL (nor I) think he can get past Coon, less Gwiz.
