Re: Brackets 8pm Wednesday

Back when Weibel was wrestling and I was doing several opens like ESU/PSU he made an interesting comment to me. In those two in particular, we would have 10 mats. So after we did a few rounds to balance the numbers left per weight (usually by quarters) we would keep all ten mats going and would then...

Re: Post Match Interviews

In my first several years working NCAAs there were interviews going on (not filmed) throughout the event. They came to us in notes each session. Most were just- I'm taking it one match at a time.
They stopped doing them eventually.

Re: Seeding for 133

Interesting theory and certainly a possibility. However ...... Vito is a pretty competitive guy and wants to do what he can for his Cornell teammates. If there is any way to go, IMO, he'll go. He struggles with Crookham, but maybe with 133 being loaded with talent, he thinks someone else may take R...

Re: Seeding for 133

sorry, I'm an old guy and not so good with the tablet. A flo article in 2018 on the nationals seeding process states that coaches can move them a little. I don't see where it says coaches. It says seeding committee- which I believe is the rules committee. There are a few coaches on the committee.

Re: Seeding for 133

according to flo, a wrestler can be argued up or down if he is within three points of another by formula. That is very little. This seems to mean that a wrestler like Starrocci is going to be way out of place, which could cause problems for some poor guy if Starocci is healthy. Are you sure that wa...

What final coaches meeting is that?

Re: Seeding for 133

Agree. But the NCAA isn't supposed to use any data from last year. Quality wins favor Crookham over Fix. I see it as Lehigh/Okla St/Cornell/Rutgers. 133 is pretty deep this year. Quarters will be fierce. Didn't know that about the timeliness of the data. But if I can draw analogy to what goes on in...

Re: EIWAs day two

I wonder if Leete of American will be the first wrestler at NCAA blind enough to require a touch start? On the Intermat forum Cowcards (whoever that is) started a trivia topic. One of the questions was about blind wrestlers at NCAAs. A while back one won some bouts. Could be far enough back before ...
