Out of curiousity and my own ignorance - how do these wrestlers make enough $ to support these endeavors and themselves?
HWC most likely pays for travel, motel, food and entry fees. If not, Spencer isn’t poor

Men's freestyle portion is on Saturday. According to the schedule, they will wrestle opening rd thru finals in one session, starting at 330am Central.
Final entries and brackets release the day before?
 
Anywhere to watch replays?

The two Twitter posts above are his entire semis and finals matches.

Other three can be found using below link. All on mat C. His 1st match doesn't have a scorebug, but its the 5th match from beginning of stream. Other two have scorebug, so easier to find. Look for match #15 and #24

Watching Spencer this morning, I wasn't aware that matches went longer than a minute, let alone a 2nd period.
He’s clearly cheating the fans who paid good money to see full matches! He’s a menace.

As an aside, Lee buzz-sawing through the field is a great argument for never adopting freestyle for NCAA college wrestling. Can you imagine driving for hours in winter for many duals where the total match time amounts to about 40 minutes. Except for truly well-matched opponents and teams, these duals would be filled with 30-45 second match terminations by gut/lace. If they did this, they’d have to really amend the rules for points given a single freestyle turn.

For the Iowa women's duals tonight, they have them scheduled for 6:00 and 6:30. The Carver cone line might take longer than an entire dual.

This has always been my reservation about college adopting freestyle, and like you said, you’d have to implement rules that are essentially just meant to delay the inevitable.

I prefer more action rather than length of competition. Like Rugby 7s compared to 15s. Those Olympic matches were exciting.
