Short beats T-Shirt...

[MitchL]

NW vs. Minny. Late takedown and backs, Jake Short beats T-shirt

Sounds like the injury has really taken its toll on Jason. Sorry about that, and I hope he gets back to form soon. Will be interesting to see where he ends up seeded by Nationals. Big Tens won't be a picnic for him.

Clearly not the same wrestler. The style hasn't changed, but I gotta believe there's stuff the common fan doesn't know about. Seems like a really nice kid going thru some challenges, apparently.

I think it's the elbow. Pretty sure he had surgery on it over the summer, and he definitely aggravated it in his match with Brandon. Tough to wrestle with a bad elbow.

So does sueflohn get the 3 seed at big tens?

Not sure.....but thought I heard or read he had 2 surgeries. One on each elbow. Anybody know for sure? I don't want to start a bad rumor.

I feel horrible for Jason. The pain he's enduring through family tragedy would be overwhelming for anyone. I can't relate to it because I've never had to go through anything quite like that yet. I think about the people I will one day lose if I live long enough. I can't imagine moving ahead in just normal everyday things let alone continue to compete at such a high level in sport. Motivation is a factor in success. After that, I'm not quite sure I'd find wrestling to be much of an important part of my life. I don't know...

Mental pain can really be taxing. It sometimes comes to a point where you are hoping for physical pain to get some relief. Hope he can turn things around, Takes time and never an established amount of time.

Wishing nothing but the best for Tshirt!

 

[Spicolli]

then loses to Crone

Andrew Crone (Wisconsin) over Jake Short (Minnesota) (SV-1 9-7)

 

[WWDMHawkeye]

Wow -- feast, followed immediately by famine.

 

[pinters]

One of our favorites sad too see him hurt.

 

[wasdt21]

that tells shorts story at minny right there good enough to beat most inconsistent enough to lose to all.

 

[goiahawkeyes]

Tsirtsis' wrestling style absolutely kills me to watch, but I have a lot of respect for him for what he did his freshman season. It's been a rough year for him off the mat and I'm pulling for him as he continues to find his way through it. Nothing but respect for Tsirtsis

 

[grappler6]

Short seems to shut down after getting a lead. He kept wrestling against T shirt and stopped wrestling against Crone. Same thing when he wrestled Purdue and Indiana.

Crone kept consistent pressure....you Hawk folks would have loved it (I did)

 

[edquinn06]

Crone wore down BS also. Kid has great defense and a motor, offense just needs work.

 

[wasdt21]

he is a varsity d1 wrestler I did not mean to disparage him, was trying to make a point on short, who I consider a pretty good wrestler
