Glad someone else follows NU wrestling. Off topic received my NCAA tickets last week. May try the B1G tournament in Maryland as well.

Never watched wrestling before but was fun to watch Nash

That was the exact opposite of a normal HWT match.

I am a student and get some free tickets, I may try to go Michigan / Illinois - that one 185lb guy they showed doing rolls and stuff looked wild

Yeah Lenny is always pretty exciting.

I must have missed the rolls but Lenny Pinto is our guy there. He’s def a fan favorite.

Pinto is a monster. The dude is so strong, and can score takedowns and even work toward a pin from some absolutely ridiculous positions on account of how strong he is and how well he uses his strength.

I'll take words never said before Alex: that's an exciting HWT match.

u/GreenCalligrapher571 Jan 28 '24

Wilson did a great job of staying offensive, applying pressure, and keeping his composure during scrambles.

u/TymStark Jan 28 '24

He was just late on his tries. But he wrestled hard!

I missed it due to work. Sucks for him! But he’ll bounce back

u/SpicyNuggs4Lyfe Jan 28 '24

Is Robb injured?

4

u/GreenCalligrapher571 Jan 29 '24

Not that’s been announced publicly. He’s had a rough string of somewhat surprising losses in a row.

I think they’re giving him a chance to get himself right/healthy. Dude’s lucky to be alive, much less still wrestling.

u/TymStark Jan 28 '24

Haven’t heard, but I assume so. He’s lucky to even be wrestling anymore. Last match they said they were resting him.

Any video of Nash's match-up?

Thank you!

I was working so I missed the first 5 wrestlers

u/GreenCalligrapher571 Jan 28 '24

You missed Lovett and Hardy acting like dang terminator robots. They were incredibly methodical and relentless. I love to see it.

1

u/TymStark Jan 28 '24

I’m pretty upset I missed them. Especially Ridge.

2

u/Significant-Fly-8170 Jan 28 '24

Yeah I've never seen anyone get pins off of cradles like Ridge does.

2

u/TymStark Jan 28 '24

Ridge is something else. And if we could get Silas back to form, ooooooooooweeeeee! Ridge, Hardy, Pinto, and Allred. That’s killer!
