Let me guess the article:

Zain has the flu & stall rides.

Nolf gives up too many takedowns.

Cenzo gasses.

Hall is way too small.

Bo is too high risk and gets caught.

Yeah. I can never figure out why Bo does that high risk throw stuff. It always gets him in trouble.

In all fairness, this is a GREAT piece by Tim Owen.

An enjoyable read.

Great piece. Just have the wrong score in the Hall-Valencia match (it was 4-3). Valencia escaped after the Hall takedown and then scored a stalling point against Hall

And per my calculations, PSU would still be in first place with their top 4 scorers (Zain, Nolf, Bo, and Hall) along with their lowest scorer in Cutch (4 points). That is 90.5 points with the top 4 and bottom 1. 1 point ahead of $OSU at this point. And who said we needed 8 scorers. Our top 4 = 7.5 normal wrestlers.

IMar says:
"[Vincenzo's] tendencies are to keep shooting until the other guy can't defend himself anymore, but that works right into my plan. I have great re-shots, and I don't wear out like those other guys, so I'm excited."

In other words: Dear opponent, if you come at me hard, then you will run into the brick wall of my incredible gas tank. The last time I read him say something like that, Nolf gassed him and pinned him.

I like IMar, but he is about to experience his second loss to a Penn State wrestler.
