Junior nationals

[april racer]

Flo did a preview today and it gave some insight to who is going. Below are those mentioned in the write up with OSU ties.

60kg:
Harding
Brock
Olsen

63:
Moran
Magaldo

70:
Blaylock

74:
Marsteller
Smith

79:
Rogers

96:
Weigel

63 and 79 are not world weights.
74 also has Hall, massa, and Chavez.
Flo projects brock, rogers and weigel to win and Marsteller second to hall.

Looks as if Baldwin and Nolf at 74 as well, that weight is ridiculous!!

174 is ridiculous. I thought Nolf wrestled 157 in open tournaments this year.

74 kgs, it's about 164 lbs.

Also Daton Fix is going at 55kgs.

I should have known it was 74 kg's. This weight will be very interesting. If Hall is ranked above Marsteller and Nolf he must be incredible since he is a Junior in high school. 74 kg's is worth the price of admission alone. Not sure what weight these guys will end up wrestling throughout college, but I would imagine there are probably about 5 NCAA championships in that bracket.

After a quick look through the brackets I didn't see Kaid Brock anywhere. At his weight of 60 kgs GWH is seeded first and could meet Lincoln Olsen in the quarters. Marstellars run to the finals could be Garret Hammond of PSU, Adam Blees( Ryan's brother), Nolf and then Chavez. WOW!! Fix will be tested today, he gets Bresser/McGhee and then Lizac/Assad.
