Nick loses 2-2 on criteria. He is wayyyyyy too defensive. He needs to develop some offense in freestyle or he'll never be successful.
Surinao loses 2-2 to Vito :(
on criteria
That was a pretty passive match from Nick. He wasn't very aggressive that match. But I didn't really see Vito pushing the action like the ref saw.
Maybe/Definitely his corner had no idea he was losing in a 2-2 match??Pretty weak match from both wrestlers. Freestyle scoring and rules are awful. Suriano needs to be more aggressive and offensive. Maybe he doesn't care where he finishes and just wants top 5 to qualify, which he still can. May not have wanted to wrestle Lee.
Which goes to my comment about the awful freestyle rules. I don't know how anyone take it seriously when criteria is who scored last as if that matters. Freestyle is a joke. Decide it on the mat and go to OT. Criteria like this is absurd.Maybe his corner had no idea he was losing in a 2-2 match??
It did seem that way. At the end of the match he seemed confused. I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around some of these freestyle rules all these years later. I understand you want to force aggression but having rules preventing it being decided on the mat sucks.Maybe his corner had no idea he was losing in a 2-2 match??
Plain and simple at this High level you need to have guys in your corner that understand the rules!
I agree wrestle till you drop.............training your ass of for years, and years, and you lose because the ref thinks you weren't active enough...that's bullshit in my opinionN

The officials opinion had nothing to do with loss..The rules state the last person that scores has criteria...Vito scored a 2 last and won on the rule.I agree wrestle till you drop.............training your ass of for years, and years, and you lose because the ref thinks you weren't active enough...that's bullshit in my opinion

They're a jokeFreestyle rules are indeed awful. The fact that ties and criteria is an immediate thing just about ruins for the sport for me.
Pretty dumb rule. Doesn't matter who scored first or second as it was a tie. Freestyle rules suck and are a big reason many don't care. Change the rules.The officials opinion had nothing to do with loss..The rules state the last person that scores has criteria...Vito scored a 2 last and won on the rule.
I did it odd that he doesn't wrestle for NJRTC. Agreed that he's always done his own thing.Why doesn’t Suriano wrestle for the NJRTC? Feel like some questionable choices by him. But I guess he’s always kind of went by beat of own drum.
?how can anyone expect Nick to win a big match when he is cornered by his dad. His dad needs to give up his ego and let Nick be trained by real coaches. The kid has so much potential and it will be a shame if he doesn't achieve his dreams.
Very good point. 100% agreehow can anyone expect Nick to win a big match when he is cornered by his dad. His dad needs to give up his ego and let Nick be trained by real coaches. The kid has so much potential and it will be a shame if he doesn't achieve his dreams.
Maybe he's studying for a movie role?And there is Nick , sitting behind the scorer's table watching the very last Greco-Roman match, the last match of the night. lol. He's a student of the game, for sure.

Saying on Flo bracket Suriano in 3/4 bout FF by GarrettSuriano with 10-0 TF over Darian Cruz to move onto Consi Semis. Needs one more win to qualify for Olympic trials.
Suriano’s defense is exceptional almost to a fault where he will not take a risk. Think it hurts him sometimes.Suriano wins 10-0 vs Darian Cruz
1 more win to qualify
I haven't watched mush freestyle, how good is Nick's defense?
Seems like everyone has a problem scoring on him
