That was mostly Title IX casualties. The sport has pretty much stabilized now after all the undo carnage.
Fun fact:
Many of the most prominent figures that spearheaded the Title IX movement agreed the implementation of Title IX had adverse affects on Olympic collegiate sports. Their true intention was never realized. As they never envisioned Universities would eliminate sports to meet the new requirements instead of increasing spending.
Right after these bouts, figure around 12:30-1 pm.
Tonight is just the Featured Finals.

Tyler Berger's (NEB) SV-1 win
over Micah Jordan (OSU)
has helped place Nebraska
on RUTGERS heels.
Question about the rankings system in wrestling: If a team finishes, say, 5th in the NCAAs, are they ranked 5th at the end of the season or are the duals factored in?
Another question, this one is about scoring. When a wrestler is taken down and escapes, he's awarded a point for the escape. When he's taken down and then reverses the guy, he's awarded two points for the reversal. But in theory a reversal is both an escape and then an immediate takedown, so why did they come up with it being its own 2-point category rather than a 3-pointer?
In an escape both wrestlers are then in the 'neutral ' position even if only for a 1 count. In a reversal, neutral never happend, the reversal was one continuous move.
Competition much better this bout and previous. #3 and 4 seeds, guys ranked in the top 5 all year.
DelVecchio seemed tired and slow today. Can't blame him as this tourney is a grind. Great run to become an AA and finish 6th!
Btw, unranked Wilson just beat Pletcher 17-8 and had him on his back a few times.

I don't see it that way. He seems to wrestle the same way all the time. When someone is more technically sound on their feet or riding Scott, he has trouble. That being said, Scott is #6 and what an awesome accomplishment for him and RU!! Congrats on the AA!!!

Congratulations, Scott DelVecchio, who is just the fourth Scarlet Knight since 1979 to go from unseeded to All-American, placing sixth in his weight class at 133 pounds.

We are not going to finish in the top 10. Too many schools nipping at our heels that have wrestlers still in the consolations and finals. I think we place anywhere between 12 to 14. ASU wins these next 2 bouts they jump us as well.

We probably all would have signed up for a top 15 at the beginning of tournament.
As was stated earlier 42.5 points is a RU Record.
2 AA
2 Lost in Blood round.
Our depth is what hampered us this NCAA tourney.
I will be GLUED to TV at 7:45.....My Fear...Freak Storm and my Satellite TV goes out. Thankfully I have Landline Cable and my phone as backup plans!

Of course, nobody has the courage to try to push through a more common sense approach to this.
