What's this?

But, that’s pretty much how he won his national championship.

After his first round pin, he won his matches with scores of:

4-1
3-1
5-2
7-1 (with 4 near-fall after locking up a cradle starting on top)

He never got taken down. Last night was like the fifth time he has been taken down in three years. Great wrestlers aren’t always dominant on their feet. Great wrestlers don’t give up a lot of points and HH is a great wrestler also. That match was going to be very low scoring and the very definition of a toss-up. Either of those guys are capable of beating Kemerer and Starocci. Last night’s loss has not diminished my confidence in Mekhi’s ability to win a championship.

Disagree about BA - love that he just keeps attacking and does his thing, -- VolTron 02/21/2022 10:36AM

BA stalked Wilson the entire match. BA was aggressive the entire match. -- dallasvt 02/21/2022 2:21PM

I agree. And he spent a lot of time -- GreenvilleVT 02/21/2022 3:03PM

This describes NCSU's entire style, too - all defense -- VolTron 02/21/2022 10:30AM

With his arms, he is built for snap and ankle pick all day long ** -- AirborneHokie96 02/21/2022 08:31AM

Yep...my takeway is more positives than negatives despite the team score. ** -- Hokie Flyer 02/20/2022 10:28PM
