Looks like we will see Turley in the matches as Grello injury defaults in exhibition matches
Alec White, 149-lber for Purdue, who has been filling in for nationally ranked Griffin Parriott, injury defaulted out of his match against Minnesota.
Parriott is listed to be available for today. Will be interesting to see if he takes the mat in the dual with Rutgers.

Of course, just our luck... If Parriott is indeed available, the Purdue matchup just got that much more difficult but it's hard to know what kind of shape he is in.
It is a bit reassuring that MVB has been wrestling well. Like you said, we don’t know where Parriott is at as far as conditioning and health.
Injury default at 149, and won both swing bouts at 125 and 157. Minnesota wrestling well so far.
Out of both duals, Purdue is the more winnable one IMO
Grello injury defaulted out of his match; Connor O’Neill was pinned in the first period.
For what it’s worth, Parriott wrestled an exhibition and didn’t take the mat in the Minnesota dual
Shawver wrestling in his exhibition match and is up 2-0 immediately. Another young guy being aggressive right off the whistle.
He looks tough on top continuing to try and turn. Now up 4-0 with 2nd td.
Shawver up 6-1 before getting the 2nd period pin! Great match from him.
Those not already following, Minnesota and Purdue are heading into heavyweight. Rutgers vs. Purdue will begin shortly after heavyweight, and a quick wipe down of the mats.
Did Grello wrestle at all or just didn't take mat? Not surprised as his knee looked hurt last match. How'd O'Neill get pinned? Thanks

Grello banged his head like 2 mins into the match and then defaulted. I'm sure due to the concussion protocol.
O'neill got in on a shot immediately but couldn't finish and after a funky scramble ended up in a terrible position and got pinned unfortunately.
Grello got head-butted in the first and injury defaulted.
O'Neill was in deep on a shot and there was a funky scramble and he got out-of-position and pinned.
I will say, in our extra matches, except for Grello, our guys are taking aggressive shots early.
Thanks, guys! Hopefully, Grello is ok and it's just precautionary. Sounds like O'Neill needs to work on his scrambling and positioning. Gonna put on the match now.
Really hard to take much from it, it was really flukey IMO but I'm sure it's something he needs to work on regardless.
Kid loses every single scramble because he's the weakest kid on the mat.
Three years into the program and hasn't gained an ounce of strength. This is horrible now pinned. What has this kid been doing to avoid the weight room for three years? It's time to move on.
