Looks like another major challenge for Josh Barr Friday…

… otherwise I see 19 likely wins!

Yes. Easily the highlight match of the weekend.

Yeah, Barr - Cardenas is the best matchup on Friday, and probably for the weekend.

It's somewhat surprising to me how much Michigan has fallen this year (5-4, 2-4 in the B1G). That said, I wouldn't underestimate Sergio Lemley @ 141. He and Beau have had some real battles. Beau has gotten the victories, but they've been narrow wins. Chase Saldate, at 157, is also a Michigan wrestler that is dangerous. Kasak has been insanely good this season, but he''ll have a battle on his hands on Friday. (He actually has the toughest weekend, as Maryland's Ethen Miller is also no slouch.)

Yes Kasak does. Good call on that. And was thinking the same earlier, Tom, about what's happened to Michigan.

Anyone not likely to go this weekend. For one, I thought Beau looked unwell (sick) coming off the mat last week - not at all his usual self. Maybe he takes UMd off and a few others to get some others a few matches?

Beau had a bloody nose that wouldn't stop. I think he goes. Kasak has a stitched up gash from the Teemer match - I would think that he may be questionable.

Miller is no slouch but didn’t Kasak ragdoll him at Nationals last year?

No, not at nationals, but he did pin him at Big Tens. I think they're both different guys at 157 though. Should be a good match. Do note Maryland has him listed as an OR in the match notes. So he may not go.

my son said that Braedon Davis was involved with a scooter accident on campus this week.

I guess it will take more than just one lawsuit to get the police to enforce the law regarding the electric scooters.
