Thought we wrestled well compared to last few ACC tourneys.


NC State just was that far ahead of us and we didn't get any help from the rest of ACC teams especially at 141, 157.

Believe everyone wrested to or above seed with the exception of Latona who looked really good, but finally lost to an evenly ranked guy. Hope that doesn't hurt his confidence, because he was looking great.

133 took care of business

141 - wrested to seed, probably should have gotten 3rd, but UVA came out hot in the 1st and couldn't offset those 2 early take downs.

149 -I believe Rock Harrison and several posters hit the nail on the head. Tarik can match (maybe exceed) Bryce's length, and Bryce was hesitant in spots he would normally let it fly.

157 -wrested 2 spots above seed, but still doesn't seem to be able to score much other than an escape after the 1st period

165 - Wrested to seed, very close to the Bullard upset

174 - Huge win for NCAA seeding - maybe 2nd, probably 3rd seed? Thought Hayden's defense would be tough, but Mekhi was able to create the 1 opening needed.

184 - Was hoping he'd make the finals, but wrestled to seed and pretty much offset the point point differential between 2 & 3rd by getting 3 bonus points.

197 - Wrestled to the script for him. Hard to believe that 1 second of riding time would have been added if it was us that needed it. He probably would have gotten 4th place if it wasn't for the 1st period tilt.

285 - Great job. Really opened up against NC state. Smart to not pick bottom and have time eaten up against UVA. Bonus points to the camera man for capturing Garland's tantrum after he beat UVA.
