No. 12 Rutgers Wrestling Set to Compete at the MatMen Open
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Jackson looked much better but its easy to see he is not completely in wrestling shape. He will get there with more mat time, im convinced of it. 6-1 win
Get use to it..lol...most of the guys here are former world class wrestlers who know it all....NOT
he did look better
Billy will never make 174 ...just too big and all muscle so not a lot of weight there to lose without weakening himself to the extreme
Bulsak wins by MD 13-2. He is fun to watch. Too bad we only have him for a year.
He obviously wasn’t thinking. Can’t imagine that’s something they drill. Lol.
That's what I thought he would do. Just grab the ankle and hold on for dear life, he didn't have any stallings. But he went high for some reason instead.

Olivieri’s problem at the big 10 level is going to be a lack of offense. Every big match he was in in high school was 1-0, 2-1, etc. Granted he won just about all of these matches but he’s not going to be a guy who constantly racks up bonus points. He’s a very defensive wrestler. Peterson is going to be the more exciting of the two if he gets his health in order. Hoping they both pan out.
I agree. I thought that Rokfin did a good job with short notice. We got to see the bouts and follow alone. I am grateful that they stepped-up. Otherwise it would have been a boring day. Only concern is the quality of the competition. Many team sent their backups. Was hoping that our guys would be challenged by a more elite field.
Yeah, weaker than midlands, but a step up from the average tournament. Most weights have guys in the top 20, some aa. For last minute, great job and awesome opportunity to get our guys on the mat before big ten schedule.
Most important thing now is to stay healthy, figure out what else we can we need to work on, and establish depth. Good to know we can see a guy like Joey o be in a match w an Aa type guy and have an opportunity for white to show the same.
I agree with your analysis, At the end of the day, it's still a sport of takedowns. IMO
Really, do you even know the young man to question his mental toughness. Sammy mental toughness is just fine. Let's hope he's okay.
Makes sense. I didn't expect Sammy to go today and they probably want to ease Turley back into action
Nice win, would have been nice to see when he had the cradle but it was off screen
Oliveri gets the 9-1 MD over Burwick! He looked awesome.
Oliveri is going to be just fine. Hell of a win against a NQ from the Big 10
