Not JS but I think he will move well enough to win the open. Spencer has a top game that really helps a guy limited in lateral movement. I do think Gilman presents a big challenge because it will require Spencer getting a takedown against great hands/head and some serious leverage. Nicky pushups presents much of the same challenge with the head/hands but doesn't have the leverage or veteran savvy of Gilman. I think I would put Spencer at 80/20 to beat Nick and 50/50 to beat Gilman if he can move around well.

I'm a bit surprised Carter isn't signed up, if not also AB. Was also really hoping for RBY. Has anyone seen what Roman has been up to since Tulsa?
If this has been posted before, I apologize.
I believe today is the last day wrestlers can register if they wish to be seeded.
The following have accepted their Final-X birth to be held on June 10th.
57 kgs - Gilman
65 kgs - Yanni
70 kg - Zain
74 kgs - Dake
79 kgs - Burroughs
86 kgs - Taylor
97 kgs - Snyder

Looking forward to seeing PSU Olympian Ken Chertow lace em up and compete at the US Open Masters National Championship this week in Vegas. Perhaps Ken will also go on to the UWW Veteran World Championship in October.
No Lilledahl or Levi Haines? Seems odd that these 2 wouldn’t compete. Lilledahl pretty much wrestles everywhere and won world gold last summer. Levi wrestled a ton of freestyle last summer and nearly made the world team losing in the trial finals. Is today the last day to register?
Today is the last day for registration to be considered for seeding purposes. Still take late registrations after today, but there is a fee and wrestler wouldn't get a seed. Not sure when the hard cutoff is.
Tasty seeds at 79kg. Carter vs Kemdog in quarters, then he'd have Ringer in the semis, before a rematch with Marsteller or the Bull in the finals.
at 74kg Nolf and Keegan in the semis and then Cenzo in the finals.
Hall and Brooks in the semis at 86kg
US Open semis will be pure fire if the brackets go to chalk early. Amazing.
Suriano / S. Lee
Vito / NaTo
Nolf / KO'T
Starocci / Ringer = only 6 NCAA titles there.
Marsteller / Bull
M. Hall / A Brooks
G. Stevenson / Parris
..... even McKenna/Lugo, Pantaleo/Sasso, Gross/Colon and Henderson / NLee are fun matches.
There are some very tasty quarters as well.
Don't forget - 2nd round: KemDog vs Nelson Brands LOL
McIntosh with a 5 seed could make a run @ 92kg.

I see a doable path for Nick Lee.
Kolodzik, Henderson, McKenna/Lugo
Lee/Henderson should be a barn burner. Evan beat Nick 11-10 last year to advance to Final-X.

You're not kidding there. He'd get Schultz in the quarters, then Moore in the semis, then Jackson or Macchiavello in the finals.
If he's back to where he was before his Army stint, he definitely can win that bracket.
Any reason why no RBY? Unfortunately this was his best chance to get on a team before making the jump to mma if he already hasn’t
If no Rby you’d have to assume he’s either been injured or he mentally needs a break..
He will have a length advantage on MM, but Morgan should be used that.
I thought it looked like he hurt his ankle in the quarters at NCAAs.
He looked "off" after that.
Cael confirmed he had in an interview in the PSWC end of year newsletter.
Not saying that's why he's not enteted into US Open.

Being in the Iowa room already showing results?
Yeah, I saw that big hornets’ nest and left behind a wrist rocket and a few round stones for a passerby
Either that or he's showing his age.
Nick is winning 65kg. Book it!
