    Women's NCAA Championships hub - preview/thread (and more)

    We were there for all sessions and the women put on a great show. Attendance at final session was decent, but end sections were virtually empty. It will take time to grow the sport - we need more D1 womens wrestling teams to draw in fans from the D1 schools. It's a very busy time of year for...

    Women's NCAA Championships hub - preview/thread (and more)

    I expect we see Simon fill the 207 weight next season. Highest World/Olympic weight in womens freestyle is 76kg (~168 pounds). Can't imagine Welker would want to pack on any weight to wrestle higher than the 180 weight class in college since she has to stay close enough to 76kg to compete for...

    Iowa @ OSU probables

    Haters gonna complain about Peterson getting pinnedby Vega, but Peterson was wrestling a good match and got caught being aggressive. Happens to the best of them.

    Endenne - GONE

    The complaints about Iowa recruiting for the 197 weight are ridiculous. Iowa got the #1 ranked 197 pound HS recruit in Ludington. To allow him to redshirt (which is needed for 99% of 197 pound freshmen), Iowa picked up a one-year transfer portal wrestler that rose up to being ranked #4. That...

    WISKY GRADES

    Keuter wrestled a smart match against Amos. He avoided getting stuck under Amos on a bad shot and he avoided dangerous upper body tie-ups against a greco expert. Ben is a 2 time age group world champ, but Amos was also a junior world champ in freestyle and a junior world bronze medalist in...

    WISKY GRADES

    Ludington got quick first takedown, then spent way too much time riding and then getting reversed and ridden. He may have been better off trying to get multiple takedowns in first period while he was fresh to build a lead. He is undersized at 197 and needs to bulk up. He needs a lot of work...

    Soldier Solute

    I thought Ludington looked pretty good for the most part. The Wyoming kid (2025 AA, ranked 6th) is a beast on top, plus the ref let him throw the leg in and beat up Ludington with power half forever with no stalemate calls. He is also a bit undersized as a true freshman 197 pounder - he weighed...

    Happy Soldier Salute Week!

    Brands & Co might want to think about doing some damage control on the Soldier Salute fiasco if there is any desire/plan at all to continue with this tourney in coming seasons. This disaster could have major repercussions impacting future season ticket sales and/or HWC Inner Circle membership.

    Happy Soldier Salute Week!

    JV tourney. Really sucks for those of us that already bought tickets and have three nights in hotel reserved. This will be last time we drop a $1000 attending Soldier Salute.

    Happy Soldier Salute Week!

    Just realized that the Iowa Women are not wrestling Soldier Salute this year. That sucks. I assume that means Soldier Salute has no womens wrestling this year. If Iowa men field half a team of starters, they are gonna ruin this tourney and kill it for the future. Might as well just make it a...
