I do not understand the seeds at all? At 74kg Sealey is the 4 seed with Zach Hanson, Vince Bouzakis, and LaDarion Lockett 1, 2, and 3. How are they seeded abouve a u17 world champ? Lockett is a U17 world champ as well but Sealey has beaten him head to head. Lots of other ones don’t make sense to me either. I do like Lilledahl’s path a ton though. Both Jax and Knox are on the opposite side as well as Desmond, Kilkeary, max Gallagher, Kael Lauridsen, Adrian Meza, Seth Mendoza, and Ayden Smith. That bottom half is STACKED
Pierson Manville gets the 1 at 65kg above Bassett, Aden Valencia, Sergio Lemley, Zepeda, etc. I don’t understand this one either. Bassett and Valencia have much better freestyle results. Zepeda beat Bassett this past year. Manville is good but I don’t know how his results get him the 1 seed

Davis looking gassed. Now taking injury time. Tougher match than I thought. Davis is definitely better in folk. His style just fits better in folk
Davis definitely hurt. Not looking good. I wonder if he continues even if he wins. He’s not moving well at all
Davis hangs on and wins 12-11. I don’t think he’s going to continue though. He could barely move out there. Sucks to see!

Didn’t look to awful, but Davis just messed up right knee. Would be very surprised if he didn’t default out.
Me too. I definitely think he defaults out. By the end of the match he could barely move
I mean, he’s a Fargo champ too. Think this is more a matter of being up a weight and then getting hurt. Looked like the much smaller of the two.

He was on the cusp of winning by tech before hurting his knee/leg.
PJ Duke is scary good. That foot sweep was beautiful. Duke vs Kannon Webster should be a great semifinal. Webster went 16-1 this past season in his redshirt year and a win over AA D’Emilio. Should be a great test for Duke if the match happens
holding his back there as well... wodering if some type of pulled muscle near his spine... connected to his .. regardless, hope it is something 'simple'
Sure but I didn’t think he looked great before he got hurt. The guy he was wrestling he should have just ran through but it was 12-6 before he got hurt. Not saying he’s not a good freestyler just that his style is better for folk. He’s great off the bottom and is pretty damn good on top
Zach Hanson vs Cam Steed is a good early round matchup. Hanson is the 1 seed and at Stanford. Steed was injured this year at Mizzou but they are really high on him
You are a true Gem on this board. Not only for results but also for telling us who some of these kids are and their accomplishments. Shout out to El Jefe as well. He's the same way. Thanks to you both.

Vince Bouzakis on deck on mat 1 and Ryder in the hole on 16.
Beautiful match from Sealey. 5tds on 5 different techniques. The 1st and 3rd tds were especially nice. The first one his opponent went underhook on Sealeys left and Sealey went sweep single to his right for a quick td. His 3rd td was just a sweet duck under where he completely disappeared on his opponent and got a super easy 2. Sealey still keeps a high pace but has really refined his style. He doesn’t shoot just to shoot any longer. He’s much smarter on the mat and his handfight has jumped levels. I just love watching him wrestle
