Seems like it makes sense.

Thanks for posting that. Only weights in potential question might be 157 and 197. If we have Wilcox and Geog, I think we qualify everyone.

Agreed. And with 57 getting nine allotments, Wilcox would have to tank...

It's not OSU wrestling... but is Ohio... and gotta brag... nephew won districts again... making his 4th trip to the states

Update: 2nd; lost to repeating state champ... 52-2 this year

SEC, SEC, SEC, oh wait......MPhillips posting quickly points out the obvious B10 dominance in wrestling. Wonder what Oklahoma is gonna do once it's berthed in the SEC? Will they wrestle 'unattached'? And B12 conference will always have Okie Light and Iowa Light as 1-2. Times are a changing.....Wish our Buckeye singlet guys the best of luck....

B1G Pre Seeds are out. https://bigten.org/news/2024/3/4/big-ten-wrestling-pre-seeds-announced.aspx

Mendez with the 2. Woods at 3. Bouzakis with the 4 but Brands switched entrants and his guy automatically gets the last seed. That gives us Bouzakis/Teske first round. Not a great draw for either of them. Our draws are okay. Plus seeds can change albeit, not a lot.

Teske is a real tough draw out of the gate...but looking at 133, that is a weight Bouzakis could legitimately win it all. Not that it is remotely easy, but I see it as winnable, or at least a good shot to make finals. Really glad to see Wilcox is a go at 157 and Geog at 197, we are officially at full strength as much as we could be (with Paddy and Sasso obviously not coming back this year). Rogotzke snagged the #4 seed, pretty damn good spot for him.

Is it top six or top eight in B10's to qualify for the Nationals? Not an affectionado (sp?) to know whether one seeding is better than the other, but oh well, that's what you guys are for! Ultimately it'll play out as it's supposed to, but I'm projecting (hah!) seven of the Buckeye line-up will be traveling to Vegas(?). Go Bucks!

Is it top six or top eight in B10's to qualify for the Nationals?

It's listed above.

McCrone and Bouzakis both lost their first matches. Might be a long tourney.

Wilcox and Hepner lose. Half our team is going to be in the loser's bracket after the first round. Very disappointing.
