Tough on Top

[PhilaPhans]

What's the change between previous years and this year with all the hammers we have on top?

Just another year of strength and conditioning and learning?

New coaching strategy?

Anything specific?

I don't know but I like it a lot. Surprised coaches aren't countering by making their wrestlers choose neutral vs RU.

Theo's bow and arrow attack from top looks incredibly vicious. I see a lot of other guys working that too. Must be a favorite technique in the practice room. I like it.

top wrestling is often a huge factor in separating the high school studs from being competitive at the D1 level or not, so it's very encouraging to see the team taking that next step.

Jaro, since I don't have a background in wrestling, can you explain what exactly a "bow and arrow attack" is?

I think with the new 4 pt near fall rule, coaches are spending a lot more time on turns...

1 possible reason to a concentration on Top work could be that a large part of the roster Does Not come from a certain area of NJ. anymore.
Another-Donny P.!

was hoping to find a video since I never advanced far enough to execute one back my competing days but it's when you lock in a bent leg and then pull it over his body, usually with a chancery (like holding a football) hold on the head. it bends the bottom guys back like a bow. its the kind of move mom's want to see banned.
