I think we have a good chance at scoring points from every wrestler and
having everyone alive after day 1. To be honest, we have pretty good first round draws even for our lower seeded guys, particularly for Mac and Serg. It won't happen but there's a possibility of a 9-1 or even 10-0 start.
Opening Rd: 7-3.
125. Eddie Ventresca (2) vs. (31) Desmond Pleasant (DREX), DEC 7-1
133. Aaron Seidel (4) vs. vs. (29) Luke Willochell (WYO), TF 18-3
141. Tom Crook (25) vs. (8) Vance Vombaur (MINN), Loss 4-6
149. Collin Gaj (4) vs. (29) Kaden Cassidy (GMU), DEC 9-3
157. Ethen Miller (14) vs. (19) Kai Owen (COL), DEC 5-3
165. Mac Church (25) vs. (8) Matty Bianchi (UALR), Loss 2-4
174. Sergio Desiante (25) vs. (8) Alex Facundo (OKST), Loss 5-7
184. Jaden Bullock (14) vs. (19) Jared McGill (EDIN), DEC 6-2
197. Sonny Sasso (4) vs. (29) Colton Hawks (ASU), MD 12-4
285. Jimmy Mullen (16) vs. (17) Vincent Mueller (COL), DEC 3-1
Round of 16: 4-3
125. (2) Eddie Ventresca vs. (18) Spencer Moore (ILL), DEC 6-2
133. (4) Aaron Seidel vs. (13) Jacob Van Dee (NEB), MD 11-2
149. (4) Collin Gaj vs. (20) Chance Lamer (NEB), DEC 8-5
157. (14) Ethen Miller vs. (3) Meyer Shapiro (COR), Loss 3-9
184. (14) Jaden Bullock vs. (3) Max McEnelly (MINN), Loss 4-7
197. (4) Sonny Sasso vs. (13) Bennett Berge (SDSU), DEC 7-4
285. (16) Jimmy Mullen vs. (1) Yonger Bastida (Iowa State), Loss 4-12
Wreslebacks-1: 3-0
141. (25) Tom Crook vs. (24) Nash Singleton (Oregon State), DEC 6-3
165. (25) Mac Church vs. (24) Sean Seefeldt (Penn), DEC 3-1
174. (25) Sergio Desiante vs. (24) Garrett Thompson (Ohio), DEC 10-4
Quarter Finals: 4-0
125. (2) Eddie Ventresca vs. (10) Marc-Anthony McGowan (PRIN), DEC 7-1
133. (4) Aaron Seidel vs. (5) Kyler Larkin (ASU), DEC 12-7
149. (4) Collin Gaj vs. (5) Koy Buesgens (NCST), DEC 4-1
197. (4) Sonny Sasso vs. (5) Joey Novak (WYO), DEC 10-6
Wreslebacks-2: 4-2
141. (25) Tom Crook vs. (15) Elijah Griffin (Rider), Win 6-4
157. (14) Ethen Miller vs. (8) Brandon Cannon (Ohio State), Win 4-2
165. (25) Mac Church vs. (15) Connor Euton (Iowa State), Loss 2-4
174. (25) Sergio Desiante vs. (15) Danny Wask (Navy), Win 8-6
184. (14) Jaden Bullock vs. (8) Silas Allred (Nebraska), Win 3-2
285. (16) Jimmy Mullen vs. (7) Konner Doucet (Oklahoma State), Loss 1-4
I think Jimmy is a blood round quality wrestler but he's got a tough draw. Those early season duds really cost him in seeding. Mac Church's odds of a cinderella run are much stronger on the championship side. If he can get a Rd 1 win, he's got a shot to make some noise.
