The video is in processes and should be posted later today. Lehigh squeezed past Oklahoma State last night in Stabler Arena in front of nearly 3,000 fans. Lehigh looked competitive and tough for the first 5 matches, even when they lost. The teams split the first two matches. Then Josh Humphreys thumped Wyatt Sheets to […]
A sell out crowd at the Bryce Jordan Center in Happy Valley got to watch one of the most highly anticipated wrestling matches of the season. Even though Ohio State in ranked about #10 they matched up very well with the #1 ranked Nittany Lions. There was a lot on the line Friday night; B1G […]

Is the Southern Scuffle better than Midlands because of all the teams involved? Or is it that the schools other than Penn State have some exciting and talented wrestlers. Gabe Dean, Alex Dieringer, Nashon Garrett, Matt Cimato (the list goes on) are all infinitely more aggressive than most of their counterparts that competed at Midlands. […]
I don’t know if it’s just me but Midlands was supposed to be stronger this season than the last few years. The field was tougher but the style of these schools isn’t generally excitting. I’ll bet anyone interested that the Scuffle finals are more exciting. Final Team Scores 1. Iowa – 152.0 Not as much […]
Rutgers 17, Nebraska 16- The most exciting dual I’ve seen this season. Upset of the week, trap match.

The Scarlet Knight’s wrestling team bounced back in a big way after an apathetic loss in Iowa to pull an upset over #3 Nebraska. To be fair to Nebraska they looked a little flat, it may have been due to travel and facing Maryland last night. Rutgers hasn’t gotten the dual team respect that it […]
What a crazy weekend of results and it’s not even Thanksgiving. Lots of top ranked guys saw action against each other. A bunch of unranked wrestlers knocked off top ranked foes. At least 30 top 10 wrestlers lost this weekend. The biggest win of the weekend that I saw was #20 Bo Nickal won convincingly […]

The biggest take away for me from Sundays’ wrestling is that the Olympic weight classes are bad for wrestling. It hurts so much mens talent in America that I can’t believe other countries aren’t screaming as well. I’ve heard the PC police from United World Wrestling/Intermat tell me why 6 weight classes is necessary but […]
Results of the Professional Card MAIN EVENT – (#1 USA #8 World) Brent Metcalf dec. Aaron Pico, 4-1. Can Pico close the gap over the next year and earn an US Olympic team berth at 66 KG? After the match it appeared that both wrestlers don’t really like each other. Wrestling is an intense sport […]
