OT: Wrestling- RU vs Ok State

[needmorecowbell]

The match is close to a sellout but still tickets available. Great opportunity to see Suriano wrestle in the most anticipated match of the year. Don’t miss it.

I can’t believe Oklahoma State is coming to the RAC to wrestle. To me they were always “the” team, maybe Iowa too. This is like football welcoming Alabama to campus. Except, in this match we actually have a chance to score some points. Don’t miss it!

Someone is adding OT to the wrestling treads on this board? I would like to add LOL.

Abro will be there. He's a big wrestling fan. Used to attend the High School Districts in P'burg. with him. Also would go to Regionals and States if Hackettstown had a wrestler advance that far.

I usually do a write up before each match on the Rivals Wrestling/baseball etc message board:

Ok St takes the short trip down Route 1 from Princeton, that it wrestles Saturday night, to take on our Scarlet Knights, at the RAC, 1pm Sunday. Match to be streamed on BTN+ and Flo Wrestling.
I'm wondering since Ok St is wrestling Saturday night in Princeton, if that could impact their starting lineup. The big one of course is at #133 where #6 Nick Suriano takes on #5 Daton Fix.

125- Shane Metzlar vs #4 Nick Piccininni. Picc by MD, Ok St up 4-0

133- #2 Nick Suriano vs #6 Daton Fix. The feature bout. I'm giving the more rested, more experienced Nick Suriano a close, low scoring dec. Ok ST up 4-3

141- Peter Lipari vs #13 Kaid Brock. Brock by dec Ok St up 7-3

149- #2 Anthony Ashnault vs #5 Kaden Gfeller. Another awesome matchup, Ashnault by dec, Ok St up 7-6

157- #15 John Van Brill vs Andrew Shomers. JVB takes a close dec. RU up 9-7

165- Glasgow/Oliveri vs #11 Chandler Rogers. Won't matter who RU rolls out, Rogers by MD,
Ok St up 10-9

174-Joe Grello vs #5 Joe Smith. Smith by MD, Ok St up 13-9

184- #16 Nick Gravina/Scott/ Pagano vs #11 Jacobe Smith. Smith by dec Ok St up 16-9
If both Gravina and Scott are too injured, I see Smith beating Pagano by MD.

197- Matt Correnti vs #13 Dakota Geer. Big upset here , w a quickly improving Correnti winning a close dec over the soph Geer. Looking at common opponents and both wrestlers record matches, I don't see a big difference between these 2.
Ok St up 16-12

285- Christian Colucci vs #3 Derek White. White by Major Dec.

Ok St wins the match 19-12.

RU keeps it respectable and takes 4 of the 10 matchups (133, 149, 157, 197).
