Rumor is LCL. Nothing official from Penn State sources.Does anyone have any details? Heard Cael walked him off the mat?
They have Barraclough - who is a legit round of 12er!Hope the best for him in his recovery. Im sure PSU as a team has a pretty good backup if he is unable to go this year.
Looks similar to when Nolf and Kem both injured their knees at the end of the year, but was sprains, and Nolf was back for nationals and won it of course. LCL sprains can be extremely painful, like no weight bearing pain when fresh but usually recover pretty fast, especially when you’re a young top athlete. I’m sure they did an MRI, so they know the extent of the injury. Just watching it, didn’t look like full tear type thing, but flukes can happen. I wouldn’t count him out of winning the championship this year unless PSU comes out and says he’s done. He could probably still win with a 60-70% knee, would find out how gritty he is.It's definitely not good and I wouldn't expect him to wrestle at the big 10s weigh in and be done. Probably gets a #4 seed at NCAA and see what he can do
It was a tech fall, so as soon as it happened he got the TD and the match was overSucks, hate to see it and gutted for the kid. But from the looks of it, he finished the match, correct? So maybe not as bad as originally thought.

Thought he was getting the pin for sure but his opponent got off his back (sort of) and that’s when the knee tweak happened.I think he had backpoints on that sequence for the tech.

What Hawkeye could beat an injured Starocci? I hope it’s nothing serious.Hope that it isn't serious and that he has a fast recovery. I want to see a healthy Starocci get beat by a Hawkeye, not an injured one.
I’ve only seen it on the small screen of phone. What makes you think it’s an ACL instead of LCL, just curious.What Hawkeye could beat an injured Starocci? I hope it’s nothing serious.
Edit: never mind I just watched it and that is an ACL and his life just changed.
Was it it actually a lot PSU fans or just puke PSU fans? The most ignorant fans are always the loudest in these situations. So the fact that Iowa doesn’t have any ignorant or classless fans makes sense that we all feel Starocci.Neat to see Iowa fans wishing Starocci well.. I still remember when Spencer had both torn ACL's and a lot of PSU fans crucifying him after his loss to Ramos saying he used his injury as an excuse for his loss .. Way to be classy and humble Hawkeye fans
I guess my encounters with him are different than mine. He’s always been DB every time I have been around him. That being said I don’t want to see him injured. Brooks is the example of class on that team. Actually talked to him at the motel at last years Bigs.Carter is a class act . He puts on an act to build his brand . Don't read into all the social media stuff to much. Not many better . I know Iowa fans want to hate him but he's one of the good guys
It seems like that’s the one sentiment that both PSU and Iowa fans completely agree on.Injuries suck. Worst part of the sport
No one should be allowed to go for 5. ImoHope he heals up. Dude has a chance at history with 5.

Uh, no, that doesn't have to be an ACL. More likely LCL.What Hawkeye could beat an injured Starocci? I hope it’s nothing serious.

Okay, we’re going to see how this works out for you.Uh, no, that doesn't have to be an ACL. More likely LCL.

Yeah, he leaned into it. What was he thinking? Reminds me of Mark Branch vs. Daryl Weber in the finals at Minneapolis.While injuries suck, he 100% put himself in that position in a match he didn't need to.
Even to swing it over where he did in the first place was careless. The match was over.Yeah, he leaned into it. What was he thinking? Reminds me of Mark Branch vs. Daryl Weber in the finals at Minneapolis.
You're dreaming, no Hawkeye is beating a healthy starocci...Hope that it isn't serious and that he has a fast recovery. I want to see a healthy Starocci get beat by a Hawkeye, not an injured one.
