@JoeKania3 If you told me in 2006 that you and Josh Kindig would one day be in the same bracket I’d assume that they eliminated weight classes in the future
Vic Avery was a terrifying force which made Joe Ariola of UB upending him 1st round of NCAA’s in MSG one of my favorite corners of all time. Joe had to win a true 4th match against Drew Foster at MAC’s just to go and then pulled this on the 3 seed

No better feeling on this earth than a great post season round for your boys.
4 alive. 3 in the semis. 1 job: get to the party on the the boardwalk. Alexa, cue the Rocky IV soundtrack and let’s have a day

📍🤼 Newark
Here in the Brick City tonight for a @SuperEssexNJ Liberty Division tilt between the top two teams: @SBPcoachHT/@StBenedictsNJ and Newark East Side.
Of note, tonight’s match is also honoring the efforts of @BeattheStreets’ Newark chapter which is big for both.
This kid showed up yesterday for the bus and almost got left behind because he was out of school uniform. Borrowed a pair of slacks 4 sizes too small and picked up a nice win fo himself
Oskar Gluckow had only wrestled 11 matches in a @StBenedictsNJ singlet coming into 2025.
But it was his final bout on Saturday at the 2025 Sam Cali Invitational that proved to be the biggest of his career.

Day 94 of training for Veteran’s Nationals with @BuFuApp: Hour of cardio in the morning and generally relaxed for the rest of the day. I have a good foundation set and can level up the strength and conditioning program. That is easy. Finding an actual coach on the wrestling side has been harder. I have some partners but not true freestyle workouts like I’d prefer. It’s interesting how resources that were abundant years ago are so scarce in this age bracket. Perfect circumstances don’t exist though I will make the best of what I have.
So hard to fight your instinct to give space as the guy holding the one score lead here, but to steal a line from Coach Buxton, space is the enemy. You feel like you’re drowning after fending off that half shot. Great sequence from Endene
Indy championship would still exist in its same format and top 8 would still be NWCA AA’s. NCAA trophy would just be handed to winner of ND’s. Our sport that is in danger of being gutted every year wouldn’t be in as much danger anymore. Please. Please hear @CoachGoodale
@CoachGoodale Yes. It adds so much to the championships. And, as our sport continues to move into the era of the haves and the have-nots, the duels are getting less and less competitive. Other big events are great. The NDs should be fun, but no need to throw away a great system IMO.
Was hauling these mats up an old narrow staircase a nightmare? Yes
Was it worth it when we had the first K-6 wrestling club meeting at St Benedict’s? Also yes
Looking forward to more of these days!
Is adding a mildly interesting aspect to what’s already our best event really worth not getting the teams right at the event we’re trying as a sport to build?
Using the top 16 teams from the NCAA Tournament as the deciding factor for National Dual Invite bids won’t produce the best 16 teams for the next season. What it will do is make a lot of intrigue for the #16 team spot at NCAAs. A $20,000 payday on the line. I kinda like that.
