My understanding of the PIN rankings is they are like ranking series points

For senior level wrestlers. It encourages wrestling in more tournaments, which I completely understand. If you aren’t happy with your ranking or seed, show up to more tournaments and wrestle. Which makes sense in theory, but these tournaments are expensive for kids to attend. I think it will get better as time goes on and there is more data going into the algorithm, but Fargo wasn’t cheap and I would hate to see kids penalized because their parents don’t think it is worth it to spend money to send them to every tournament in the country. Saw an Alaska kid that went 0-2 yesterday. That would be tough to justify in my opinion.

Nininger is not in Fargo brackets, did I miss him or is he hurt?**

Not sure... he's been heavily "handled", and I don't necessarily mean...

I'm guessing Burton hasn't done much freestyle?
donjfs3 07/15/24 04:29 PM ET
Burton is 2x Fargo AA

He's pretty active though
donjfs3 07/16/24 01:39 PM ET
Completely agree. I believe they said PIN would be rough in the beginning,
TartanHokie 07/16/24 04:42 PM ET

Burton goes the distance winning 9-0 over 4 seed #15 ranked Burkett

Torres is funky...reminds me of Bryce.
VPIGUY 07/16/24 03:37 PM ET
He's going to get in some crazy scrambles haha that was a fun match **
donjfs3 07/16/24 03:38 PM ET
Really, FS determines number one in folk? I do not agree with that. Hope

Siedel went 10-0 and then pinned him for good measure...
