I don't feel Vak's comments are out of line at all. Kelly has had a tendency to go upper body early, especially in previous years. It hasn't been a move that has worked well for him (or Grothus, or Moore) %-wise against decent competition. Kelly is a grinder who needs to keep himself in good position.
Glad Kelly won.

Safe to assume Iowa will not get anything out of Moore at the Nationals. What a pathetic showing against a wrestler with a losing record. Go Hawks!!!
Moore isn't a shadow of what he was last year. That is a fact. I'm not going to start an injury rumor or make excuses but their HAS to be more to his story than I/we know.

Obviously it is not completely over yet, but someone could have made a lot of money on a bet six years ago that said Nate and Nick Moore would combine for zero All-American finishes.
Nick knows he should have beat that guy. Austin Wilson will be a much tougher opponent in his next match.

Sadly, this year, the meltdown has lasted most of the season. Looks like his will to compete has completely vanished. Would be absolutely shocked if he AA'd. He looks like he's not interested in qualifying -- like he'd rather just finish up with a couple of losses in Columbus and call it a career. Very sad.

What a disappointing match and effort. I completely agree that he could cost us a team title (NCAAs). Nick needs to put it together RIGHT NOW.
--Ohio
However, a win at least gets him qualified for Nationals, doesn't it? Now, he has a very good chance of going 0-2, in which case his chance of qualifying would seem uncertain. Probably get a wild card, I suppose, but the way he's wrestling, I don't see him winning more than maybe 1 match in St. Louis. Hope he proves me wrong.
