Quick EIWA summary (from a quick look, so sorry if I'm off a little) -- Of the 62 qualifiers (61 were able to compete) 37 are still alive. 9 Quarterfinalists, also meaning 9 in the R-12 round. Those in the consis right now need to win two to make it to the R-12, three to A/A. Bucknell has 4 of 5 qua...

Isn't a guy who loses a pigtail finished? No. Double-elimination. Then why don't I see Logan's name in the consolation bracket on track? And doesn't it make sense to continue with an even number? Look in the Prelims bracket. All the pigtails are shown there. But there is an error in Track's bracket...

No pigtail bout shown for 141; I guess the alternate wasn't able to step in.

Priesch DNP'd from 3rd seed in 2018; also dealing with an injury.

In the last ten tournaments we've had 21 wrestlers seeded in the top 8, 13 of whom placed. We've also have 7 wrestlers seeded outside the top 8 who did place. So we've had it both ways in roughly equal numbers, without any advance warning on how things would work out. My crystal ball's out for repai...

Basketball opened yesterday; when the season ends doesn't matter. But yes, I also think it makes sense to wait until the end of the season.

Don't the coaches have enough to do over the next few days?

I see Griffin bulking up to be a larger 149; not sure he can beat out Hines for the 141 spot.

-Taylor's continued development into one of the toughest and most exciting heavyweights in the country.

What I especially like is his mobility and the free-ranging attack style; he doesn't try to win with a RT point and an escape. Reminiscent of Max Wessell.

We wrestled Oklahoma on 12/17/1959, which would be Pendleton's freshman year. The 12/15/59 edition of The Brown & White ran a preview but did not mention an exhibition bout; the next edition was 1/8/60 and by then it was old news, so no mention of the dual results.
