Great W for Shawver. Any other results for our guys?

Sammy and Shawver won first two and in round of 16. White won first lost second. Poz lost first match in U20, win next 2.

Shawver and Alvarez both win and advance to the quarterfinals

 

[bluemountain1967]

McDermott still in the consolations. Poz went 1 and 2 and did not place in the under 20 division and Soldano also did not place in the under 20 division. Messina, White, and Epperly didn’t place in the under 23 division. Alvarez and Shaver looking good and in the quarterfinals. Sunday is a big day for these two guys. Surprised that Poz and Soldano didn’t do better.

Freestyle and folk style are so different. It’s crazy how the same sport can create such a disparity in the two styles.

Shawver with a nice win and he’s into the semifinals

 

[MS-RU]

Alvarez loses to Matthews

 

[MS-RU]

Poz hasn’t wrestled well in a very long time at this point so it’s not very surprising. Not sure what’s what happened/happening but hopefully he can get on track.

A little surprised with Soldano but I didn’t see of the matches so can’t really comment.

 

[bluemountain1967]

Alvarez lost 13-2. But has pretty easy path to the 3rd/4th place match. Shawver has been really impressive. Could win it all. Anyone have thoughts on the losses by White, Poz, and Soldano?

In non-Rutgers news, tOSU has 2 U20 world team members and their top 2 commits wrestled each other at 61 kg:



It'll be interesting to see where Mendez and Bouzakis wrestle in tOSU lineup and when or if 1 redshirts. Both are vying for 133 and I give Bouzakis the slight edge. Mendez is taller and looks like he could put on weight and muscle to go 141. Nice problem for them to have...

Gotta love the ol criteria deciding a match... At least have a 1 min SV first.

 

[bluemountain1967]

Alvarez lost in the consolations and will not place. Shawver will be our only placer and will finish between 3rd and 6th. He looked good. Hopefully the experience will help the guys that lost all improve and be ready for the season.

It’s one of reasons why freestyle will always be lame and stay 2nd fiddle to folkstyle. Having someone win on a tie because they scored last is stupid.

Colaiocco beats Shawver 9 to 7 and Shawver finishes 6th.
