Gilman- B+ I think he'd be the first to tell you he should've had the tf. Assad wrestled tough though
Clark- B Wrestled a good first match back from injury but was expecting a little more offense
Carton- B+ Good match. Needs to attack more
BS- B+ Good match. Should've been a wider margin
Kem- A- Held tough against a senior AA. Nice win
Gunther- C I thought he presented himself nicely and wrestled the best match he could against a clearly better Massa
Meyer- F He needs somebody to teach him how to wrestle
Brooks- A Solid tf. Too much on outmatched opponent
Wilcke- B- He needs to be more active in first period. He's also too small for weight. Finished strong
Stoll- A Fall. He should've won just like he did
 
No grades, but comments:
  • Clark is back. That's the story of week. He wrestled well against a very tough kid. Brands showed balls to let him go against Micic his first match back.
  • Kemerer beat a tough kid.
  • Call me crazy, but I think Marinelli would've beaten Massa in the third period, ala Ironside over Kolat. Massa could barely stand up. Gunther looked like a middle school wrestler.
  • Meyer...sigh. Hawks are closer to a title than they've been in years and I'm concerned we're just not gonna get the points we need at the support weights.
  • Stoll continues to look good.
  • Overall a good performance, a lot to feel good about, and only a few things to pull your hair out over.

He may have beaten Massa tonight but he will not in March. He will be in top shape and will challenge IMar
 
125-Gilman should be able to TF this guy but he had a decent gas tank. B+
133-Clark wrestling a tough opponent out of the gate. Just refused to give up points and looked fine cardio wise. His grade is high considering that it was Micic and CC was coming off a long break. A
141-Tough as always but it would have been good for him to get to his offense earlier. B
149-Same as above. Sorensen ran him out at the end with a major but I don't think he had a TD in the first period. B
157-Kemdawg wrestled like a seasoned veteran. Gave a scramble TD in the first period but then came back on him. Was in on shots multiple times but I sensed the game plan wasn't to get into too many scrambles with Murphy. Ironically, Kemdawg scored on a scramble. For those that don't know, Murphy unsnapped his own headgear. A
165-Just a tough wrestler in Massa. Many predicted a TF but Joes was able to keep him at bay in the last period. In the first two, Massa seemed to score at will but Gunther's cardio saved him. C
174-Ugh...Meyer let's guys in on his legs so easily and is a frustrating wrestler to watch. Could have won at the end....almost outscrambled him but the Amine had a one handed grip on one leg but had his head near his own knee. If Meyer had just locked the cradle up, he would have gotten the TD. Coaches said he did but the refs refused to review it. F
184-Brooks came out hard and was up by ten by the end of the first I think and eventually got the TF. A
197-Cash needs to show more of his athleticism because its there. Wrestled a pretty good match and paced himself. B
HWY-At one point, it looked like the Michigan kid had taken Stoll down and Stoll even got thrown off the mat. Think that woke him up and he came in on that lock of his and put the guy on his back for a pin. A

Not a bad match considering all of the traveling they have been doing. "Maalox" Meyer gives me fits because he just doesn't wrestle up to his potential and just sometimes forgets even the basics. Tom gets an attaboy because he caught an illegal leg scissors in a 50/50 position in Cory's match I believe when nobody had really caught it. I think we see Marinelli against MSU.



Oops...didn't see it UC.
