Super 32 Thread

[LaxHawk174]

Brackets are out: http://arena.flowrestling.org/event/3fac970c-d135-620c-6541-4d512de4cffa

Some notes:

106: Reno the #1 seed and Schriever the 2.

120: Busiello #1 and Teske #2. Teske has Macri as his likely quarter match. and McKee awaiting in the semis if he makes it there.

126: Bartlett, D'Emilio, and Hillegas all in the same half of the bracket.

132: Chlebove-Raimo semi, Silva should cruise to finals on upper half. Don't see Carson Manville.

145: Facundo will have to go through #1 seed Lloyd in the semis. Wouldn't be surprised to see the super talented Frosh win this bracket.

152: No Connor Brady. Rider the #1. Amine and Kim on his half, should be his quarter and semi. Not too familiar with the higher seeds on bottom.

170: Looks like Hidlay and Kennedy are on a semifinal collision course. Winner takes the title IMO. Kennedy will be a tough out for Hidlay. Foca on bottom as the #2. Think Hidlay gets the job done here.

195: Want to be watching these early round matches. If Hoselton (I think unseeded) wins his pigtail and next match will face the top seed #8 @ 195 Jared Ball OH. Could see an upset special there, Hoselton is quite good for an upperweight freshman, but it is unusual to see FR win any weights other than lightweights.

220: Bracket is tiny.

285: Cass should bonus his way through this field, based on his performance this off season.

Castillo beat Macri. BTW, Castillo is from the same club (Tucson Cyclones) as RBY.

 

[IAChief32]

Teske wins 4-2 in OT over Norwood from OH

 

[funnyfletcher]

Cass with 2 pins in 55 seconds.

 

[The catman]

Rider hasn't busted a bead yet either.

 

[MVPFAN]

Teske down 10-0 early in the second to Fenton of Ohio.

 

[MVPFAN]

12-2 after 2.

 

[MVPFAN]

12-5 final and not that close. Teske loses.

 

[JohnBasedow]

12-5 final and not that close. Teske loses.

Cael pulls offer in 3..2..

 

[MVPFAN]

Fenton is an eastern mich commit. Not in intermat top 100.

 

[KYHWKY]

Can he grow into 33 pounder? Recruit him!

 

[2000hawk]

Fenton is an eastern mich commit. Not in intermat top 100.

He is now

 

[JohnBasedow]

Schriever wins 7-3. Looking tough.

 

[LaxHawk174]

Rider and Cass have both pinned their way to the quarters. Hidlay in Quarters vs Robert Patrick of PA. Then likely Kennedy (also into the quarters in dominating fashion) in the Semis.

Facundo into the quarters with 3 majors and a tech.

Hillegas/Bartlett/D'Emilio 1 win each needed to advance to quarters.

Looks like I was a little too high on Hoselton based on his big board ranking. Didn't make it out of the first round. Tough for FR to excel right away at 195, especially at super 32.

Raimo went down early at 132, I've never been that impressed with him personally, never lights up the scoreboard and wrestles a relatively boring style.

Shriever into the quarters at 106. As JohnB said, looking tough.

 

[KTI]

Teske wins 4-2 in OT over Norwood from OH

I think Norwood is a high school freshman.... if that's true--that's a surprise.

 

[SPOONER]

Teske doesn’t have the greatest of national accolades but even for him this is a rough performance. I still like him a lot but have always been surprised PSU was THAT interested in him.

 

[MVPFAN]

Ayala gave up a spladel tied at 10 in OT to lose 12-10.

 

[MVPFAN]

Rideer goes down 9-1 to Smallwood of Kentucky.

 

[The catman]

Rider got worked, what will Teske do with Macri?

 

[ih8iast8]

He is just the "hot chick of the week" to Carl. Suriano figure that out when he got put out to the pasture.

 

[hawknut]

Really think Lee is a future 33. He looks pretty big. Teske would slot in perfect at 125.

Spencer isn’t going to 33 anytime very soon.

 

[CP84]

I've had some fear that Teske might be the next Dan LeClere or Jesse Sundell. Would have been good depth but not a huge loss to us.

 

[IAChief32]

Teske is a worker and that’s half the battle. He’ll be fine.

 

[1stplacehawk]

Is there a schedule for this thing? Don't see one on flo or the Super32 website

It's linked in the OP.

It's linked in the OP.

I'm still not seeing it

I agree that Teske has a good motor and that goes a long way in college and I've posted on here why I believe he should have gone to Iowa, but a 4-2 win in OT against a high school freshman, a loss to a guy not highly ranked and then a 3-0 win against another unranked guy in the Consolation round is not the performance of a top 10 guy. Normally, top recruits hammer everyone until they run into other top recruits. I am surprised, because I expected much more this weekend. This is not said in criticism, but simply surprised....

 

[T8KUDWN]

I have never seen Teske as anything but a round of 12 guy

 

[Grip220]

We usaully agree with most things Chief but im going to disagree with this one I think Iowa not getting Teske was a good thing after seeing the matches today and a couple others I dont think he ever makes a lineup as a Lion or a Hawk

 

[Czech Hawk]

Teske got put in some bad positions and yes to a guy that was under the radar at a min. I did like how he fought out of them and never quit. He has a great motor and while some lessons to be learned here, I wouldn't call him a bust by any means.

 

[ih8iast8]

I am swallowing my pride by saying this, I am really disappointed he didn't go to ISU. I think it would have been perfect for him, all but guaranteed to be a 4 yr starter.

 

[DayHawk18]

I am interested in that Sihavong from CA. Good athlete and wrestler.

 

[WWDMHawkeye]

I love a good motor and a work ethic. That said, there are lots of kids around the country with those attributes who never sniff the podium. You’re going to need more than that to make the stand in March.

 

[artradley]

Two very sub par matches for Teske; I'd say there's a decent chance he is sick.

Im not calling him a bust by any means I just think he is a long long way from a AA guy which is what the Hawks need. He very well could be a possible starter on a team like Msu or Wis something like that he could AA after a few years under his belt which is not a bust but is not what Iowa needs.

I think he'll have a good college career. He's had mixed national results, but there is plenty of room for improvement. I don't think he'll ever be a national champ, but I expect him to be solid.

Sick or not I think today will cost him some $.

 

[Scryed]

Well, if Teske ends up on the podium in D1 people will be forced to give credit to Cael and co. because he is not anywhere close to that level right now. Honestly I was pretty unimpressed considering his ranking - this was my first and only time (so far) watching him wrestle though and maybe he is having an off day. It certainly does happen. Seems to be a lot of upsets at S32 already.

 

[Grip220]

He is not sick he would have been sucking wind if so and I understand the super 32 is a meat grinder but thats where your supposed to shine if your a top ranked guy Bussiello is projected same weight and is a F** st commit and has won it already 2 or 3 times. We need guys to compete at the level rt out of the gate and Teske won’t imho
