Where will tOSU finish at Big Ten Wrestling Tourney?

[BB73]

If the team finishes in a tie, only the higher place will pay out.

So it they tie for third place, only third place will pay out, not fourth.

 

[BB73]

tOSU is in 9th place after a disappointing first day. Only Humphrey has a chance at winning first place.

I don't know how high the Ohio state wrestling team can finish in the Big 10 tournament but I am totally confused as to what happened with the team. I know that tournaments are very different than individual meets but we finish second in the Big 10 tournament last year and only lost one meet in the Big 10 this season. I would have to think that Coach Ryan is extremely disappointed with the performance of his wrestlers.

Actually, tOSU finished 5th in the Big Ten wrestling tournament last year, and then finished second at the NCAA tournament.

 

[LitlBuck]

Quick correcting all of the time I meant to say that we finished second in the standings last year according to the BTN

I don't know how we can do so well during the season and not very well in the tournament

 

[BB73]

tOSU had a decent second day, despite Humphrey's close loss in his final, and nipped Penn State for sixth place, 80 to 79.5.
