really nice way to finish the matchReally nice outside single by Soldano. Would love to see more of it
Looks like he doesn’t even want to be out there. Common theme from some of our highly regarded recruitsWow, Soldano loses to a previously winless backup from Purdue. Not sure what he was thinking trying to lock up with the lead and less than 10 seconds to go. What a miserable performance.
I believe regressing is the word you meant.lol

He’s digressing from last year.
Yes sir. So mad mixing my english! :)I believe regressing is the word you meant.
IMO it looks he is thinking too much at times and not actually wrestling, which causes him to be less aggressive and have some serious mental lapses (like today)Looks like he doesn’t even want to be out there. Common theme from some of our highly regarded recruits
Also there have been some comments about him being small for 184. Today the wrestler was 100% stronger then him. I agree on your take. It’s frustrating bc he was so much better then that guy.IMO it looks he is thinking too much at times and not actually wrestling, which causes him to be less aggressive and have some serious mental lapses (like today)
I agree. More times than not, he looks like he is giving up a lot of size and strength to his opponent which is even more of a detriment given his natural style.Also there have been some comments about him being small for 184.

I’d like Soldano to wrestle more of his wild man style from his freshman year.. seems to make him more dangerousIMO it looks he is thinking too much at times and not actually wrestling, which causes him to be less aggressive and have some serious mental lapses (like today)
Is that not what got him in trouble twice in that match?I’d like Soldano to wrestle more of his wild man style from his freshman year.. seems to make him more dangerous
He wasn't trying to lock up with him...Wow, Soldano loses to a previously winless before today backup from Purdue. Not sure what he was thinking trying to lock up with the lead and less than 10 seconds to go. What a miserable performance.
True but come on, you cannot let your opponent even get close enough to lock up like that. You have no stalling warnings…can’t let that happen. That kid was 7-25 in his careerHe wasn't trying to lock up with him...
I misspoke and should have said how does he let someone not good get close enough to lock up with him with less than 10 seconds to go.He wasn't trying to lock up with him...
Crazy how much SCW has developed. Granted it was a covid shortened season and the scheduling was weird but he was a .500 wrestler as a junior in high school (he had a much better record at Monmouth as a sophomore) and then jumped to be a state placer as a senior. Not sure what he was doing last season but now he’s competing pretty well as a big 10 wrestler. Crazy.
On the other end of the spectrum, 4x state placer and former Rutgers commit Jack Zaleski dropped out of college and is no longer wrestling. He is volunteering as a coach at Middletown North even though he graduated from South.
Can we bring back O’Neil?In keeping with the theme of terrible performances, White loses 4-2 to a true freshman from Illinois and couldn’t score an offensive point. His tournament is done.
Sometimes ya just gotta give credit to the opponent... They're D1 athletes alsoTrue but come on, you cannot let your opponent even get close enough to lock up like that. You have no stalling warnings…can’t let that happen. That kid was 7-25 in his career
