Team Score breakouts after Session I

125

NaTo looks good, and oh my word the smile on Carson Kuhn’s face after his consolation Major Decision!

133

Keener just wasn’t aggressive enough against a gassing McKee, and Pletcher got booed out of the arena after his controversial first win.

141

Nick Lee looked good on collision course for a McKenna rematch tomorrow afternoon.

149

Zain’s bye and successfully pain-averse opponent conspired to limit PSU bonus here, but tonight is a new opportunity as he and Hayes rematch.

157

Nolf and knee brace looked fine enough. He regenerates pretty well. Micah squeaked out his advancement.

165

Cenzo played it fast and loose and nearly got Minnesota gator-bacon’d for real. Te’Shan, meet the Bull!

174

Mark Hall’s perfect and he’s looked chill doing it. BoJo looking strong as well.

184

Bo Nickal made up for his bye with a bang. And MyMar’s doing some team wrestling of his own.

197

Rasheed mauled the Southern Scuffle, but this morning he wrestled like this was a different stage.

It is.

Moore’s been there before and wrestled fine. On course!

285

Nevills looked fine. Snyder looked really tired, even though I know he barely was. Can Nick solve the 2x Champ tonight?

Next Up

Tonight’s gonna be lit. It’s time for Michigan and Iowa to inject themselves into the team race. How Penn State & Ohio State each deal with their Wolverine and Hawkeye opponents will determine what’s still available tomorrow.
