Duke is so comfortable in every position.
Outstanding round so far.
Outstanding round so far.
I see you joined in 2022. Allow me to introduce our LemonPie. He calls it as he sees it.
This might feel like a slight on Facundo but it's more of a compliment to Barr. Same technical weaknesses but Barr has much more of the dog in him, like Carter (without the talk)
His "do or die" mentality let's him win the close matches and beat guys like McEnelly who has more offense.

I can’t remember the last time I’ve watched McEnelly wrestle even a 3 minute stretch without being able to get to legs, let alone an entire match. Josh Barr’s defense is insane.
Simon Ruiz is a fantastic win for Zack. For reference, he wrestled at Cornell's Greyshirt Program last year, beat Lennox Wolak, lost in SV to Rocco and other than a 8-3 win over a Binghamton kid, he bonused everyone else.
Mirasola the Larger makes 8.
I'm bummed though for Davis, I hope his injury isn't serious. I have no idea, but I know it's not a shoulder so there's that at least.
Is this going to be like Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger? In both cases the answer the answer is YES.
So, while our recruits are out here making the finals of the biggest tournament we have, Iowa recruits are busy pushing each other off the mat and hand fighting with each other. And the beat goes on.

I read that strategy in a book once. I think the author was some guy names Dan Gable. Never heard of him.
Slippery.........Kudos also to your high school typing teacher also!
Sure you have. Look up "NCAA wrestling: the pre-modern era".
Webster just went 16-1 as a shirting freshman for Illinois. The loss was 4-2 to Ty Watters, who finished 4th behind Kasak. Wasn't a great schedule since it was all Opens, but he did beat D'Emilio, Rathjen, and Munson.
In 2023 when Kollin Rath beat nearly everybody in the country, Webster beat him.
Impressive win by Duke.
EDIT: Webster won Fargo JR at 145 last year.

When I look up early wrestling, all I get is Abe Lincoln. Wiki tells me that wrestling started in 2009.
Maybe @smalls103 still ranking Duke #1 pfp is not so crazy

Lots of people downplaying Barr and I’ve done the same plenty but McEnnely is a beast and Barr just handled him. He has absolutely gotten better this past year
