According to Trackwrestling, Iowa is sending about a dozen wrestlers to the Joe Parisi Open this weekend. Could be some good competition based on the schools listed.
Joe Parisi Open
- Thread starter AFHawk86
- Start date
So cal - where did you find that info? Track says this info isn't released to the public yet.
With the way he's (Kem) been wrestling, I'm inclined to agree with you. If he does beat him, it'll merit putting some things in perspective. Last year Mayes majored Josh Dziewa. If Kem can beat Mayes as a true freshman, the sky is truly the limit for the young Hawk. I'm hoping Turk can right the ship and have himself a great tourney.
That'd be huge, but I'm not getting my hopes up too much for that.
Think there was a breakdown of wrestlers on flo and it listed Iowa guys in the Fresh/Soph division.
Ok...I get them doing that in their first Open but they need to let Kemdawg run with it to at least let us message boards dudes sleep at night. Give us the "holy shit, he could start moment" or the "Ok, he needs a little more work."
I know Midlands typically marks the decision point on the calendar, but generally speaking more data=more informed decisions. I don't think the Frosh/Soph division provides the correct data. JMO
The only guy from Iowa that isn't listed in the Fresh/Soph division by FLO is Jeremiah Moody at 165. Maybe its a simple mishap and Moody is in the Fresh/Soph and everyone else is in the open! 
Why the hell is Kemerer wrestling in the Freshmen/Sophomore division!
Somebody call Lindenwood and do your best Brands impression and say none of our guys should be in the Fr/Soph division
I think Midlands is a fresh/soph Div, the Open is at the Southern Scuffle!The only guy from Iowa that isn't listed in the Fresh/Soph division by FLO is Jeremiah Moody at 165. Maybe its a simple mishap and Moody is in the Fresh/Soph and everyone else is in the open!
The cowboys would place 2nd at both tournaments, so does it really matter?
With how's he's been wrestling, I think he will beat him. Certainly don't think it'll be bonus points, but a win nonetheless. Go Hawks!

125-Perez Perez
133-None
141-Topher Carton
149-None, which sucks because I don't see anyone between Kemerer and Mayes in final
157-Logan McQuillan, Logan Thomsen (also 1st round matchup between Dayton Racer and #11 Joseph LaVallee)
165-None
174-Mitch Bowman
184-None
197-None
285-None
I'm confused about 141. Ryan has supposedly been wrestling because other Hawks are hurt, yet those other Hawks are wrestling tournaments the past 2 weekends. Either a) they're not hurt, or b) they're healthy enough to wrestle a tournament but not a dual? Doesn't make sense to me.
Also, I'm with many on here who would like to see our young Hawks get better competition in the Open division.

If Mike were to lose a match in freshman division, would anyone still push for him to cut to 141?
If guys are hurt they miss practice time. If they miss practice time and aren't returning All Americans or named Brooks, Meyer, Stoll you go to opens first. You're welcome.

While I would love to see all of our guys in the open division, there is probably something to be said about true freshman getting wins under their belt. The year is long and these guys are no doubt getting their share of butt kickings in the room on a regular basis. If Brands feels this is the best thing for them at this point he has a reason. Also the better true freshman will have their chance at Midlands to shine.
Who are these other Hawks you speak of? The only competition he's currently had is Topher Carton who didn't wrestle last weekend. Turk is currently redshirting but he's also coming off injury. Most were surprised to see him compete as he's missed practice time. But again, he's redshirting and Carton didn't wrestle due to injury.
These other Hawks are the ones you mentioned. They were supposedly not available for the duals due to injury, yet they are wrestling tournaments.
