Go Hawks!

I agree with your Caleb take. He was a multi sport athlete in high school. Generally we see big jumps from those guys when they concentrate on one sport. He has a win over Paniro Johnson. Imo he’s a dark horse to make waves this year.

Not necessarily Hawkeye related but my nephew just strolled to the championship of the U23 GR 77kg. 9-0; 10-0; 9-0; 8-0; 10-0; 8-0. Nice little run . . .

Unimpressive start by Block losing 7-1 to Jordan Williams. Williams is good but no offense generated by Block and Williams caught Block standing straight up a couple times to easily get in deep.

Jesuroga goes down 7-1 to Kyle Dutton. Only point a clock point.

 

[MVPFAN]

Robles wins 11-6.

 

[MVPFAN]

Petersen got teched by Bailey from Lehigh.

Rhodes wins 12-2.

 

[MVPFAN]

Kannon Webster dominates Williams 9-2 in the next match.

Jesuroga 5-1 on the back side.

 

[MVPFAN]

Observation of Iowa guys in freestyle. They give up a lot of exposures off their own shots but rarely have counter techniques to expose people off their shots.

 

[MVPFAN]

Riggins over Bianchi 10-2.

 

[MVPFAN]

Mirasola twins just took out Clayton Whiting and Wyatt Voelker at their respective weight classes.

 

[MVPFAN]

Rathjen by Tf

 

[MVPFAN]

Reyna with a Tech.

Hill loses by decision. Attao did the fat boy on him.

 

[dtripp26]

Pretty lackluster performance from the u20s so far.

Lots of hype about Peterson and Block but those were bad results. Hill going down as the 2seed.

 

[MVPFAN]

Valencia dominates Rhoads 13-2.

I'm not impressed so far. We have the same technique and scramble deficiencies in free as we do in folk. It's boring wrestling. I'm going to hope for the best but I'm out on the Brands unless I see some drastic improvement in a number of areas. PSU running circles around them and access to all the best clubs for recruiting.

 

[MVPFAN]

Block goes bbq losing to a UNC guy I haven't heard of.

 

[edquinn06]

Valencia dominates Rhoads 13-2.

We gotta flip Valencia

 

[Libertylover]

We gotta flip Valencia

Hard to pass up a Stanford education, paid for by wrestling, but would love to have him since we are hurting in lightweights.

 

[js8793]

this attao kid is a bruiser

 

[MVPFAN]

Singleton up 6-1 on Arnold in match 1. Singleton is a big boy.

They’re old friends. coach phil has videos of them training together on his instagram going back a long time. singleton had a great game plan there. gabe needs to adjust.

 

[MVPFAN]

Mesenbrink's pace is wilting Garvin. Too much for him

 

[js8793]

i think gabe could be successful right away, but could really benefit from a redshirt to develop his offense. spend a year volume attacking at opens. don’t be afraid to take “bad” losses. if he develops his offense, he could be a title contender at 174 his rsfr year.

 

[TS568]

Arnold wins 2-2. 3 shot clock points and a step out. They put Arnold on the clock twice which was a joke, he took a shot in the second period and was doing almost all the pushing before they clocked him. Rubber match coming up.

He almost got hosed getting out on the clock twice.

 

[js8793]

good adjustments but he’s gotta find a way to score now. can’t rely on shot clock points.

 

[zoe22]

Rathjen wins tech fall

 

[js8793]

better guy clearly won. i’m the long run, not necessarily a bad thing for gabe.

time to develop that offense. there’s no pressure to win for a year now. all development now.

 

[MVPFAN]

Singleton wins match 3 by a point. Racked up a 5-0 lead in the first on a push out, TD and a gut. Arnold with 4 push outs. Big strong tall wrestler over big strong short wrestler.

 

[MVPFAN]

Under 20s was really bad overall. Rhodes had 1 win. Petersen was 0-3 after making the open final and actually making Bouzakis work a little. He must have spent some time in the Iowa room preparing and regressed. Block 0-2, Jesuroga 1-2, Riggins and Hill 2-2 and Arnold comes up short. He and Kasak the only 2 guys with a bye to the best of 3 to lose

 

[Life=HawkeyeWrestlin]

Standard overall performance. High recruits average results

 

[TarpHawk]

Reyna managed to poop his pants with 17 seconds left to lose to #24 seed in R16. Rathjen won his R16, faces the guy who beat Reyna.

When push comes to shove, some guys have fight, some guys just don't. Let's go Rathjen.

Schriever also won and faces #8 in QF.

Am I the only guy watching?

I've had enough Iowa sports today after watching the baseball team.
