NCAA Spots Cashed & At Large

[Judoka]

Laptop posting, so only keeping this link up to date on qualifiers right now. I'll update this thread this afternoon once I'm back to two monitors.

Both Jordans are in the finals at 165 at Big Tens. Haven't done the math on it but I think it would be better for Isaac to win. That should put Moreno as the two seed. Only reason I am not sure is because Isaac winning might cause a jumble of 3-4 guys that drops Moreno to fourth or fifth like what happened to Gadson last year. So it is possible a win by Bo could clear up the picture better and lock Moreno into the three spot.

#1 at 149 Habat lost yesterday in the EWL finals. I believe the guy he lost to was unranked.

Sounds like there may be 3 bids going back to the At Large pool, but not confirmed.

For NC State in the ACC, Kevin Jack wrestling instead of Sam Speno at 141
Also Short of Minnesota didn't get a preseed for the Big 10 at 149, but not sure if he is wrestling
At 197 in the EIWA, Fox of Harvard doesn't appear in preseeds

These are from Seton Hall Pirate

Speno is in the ACC brackets, but at 149. So looks like that's a spot back to the pool.

Issac needs to win, I think if Bo wins, he goes to #2 seed, Sulzer could possibly go to #3 and Moreno at #4 and on Dieringer's side the bracket. I haven't look to see who Sulzer losses are to beside Dieringer.

6-4 in OT to Ethan Ramos of North Carolina. His loss to Dieringer was 8-2. He's got a 4-2 win over Taylor Walsh, who pinned Moreno. But the only other top guy he's seen this year is Cooper Moore, who he beat 13-6.

I think if Bo wins, it goes #1 Dieringer, #2 Bo, #3 Sulzer and #4 Moreno and #5 Issac.

Seeds #1, #2, and #3 have a better road.

I'll be really upset if the seeding committee dings Moreno for losing twice to Dieringer. I want to see him make the finals. And based on what happened to Kyven last year that's exactly what they are probably going to do. It likely would have been better for his seeding to have forfeited last night.

The guy who beat Sulzer is ranked 12th though. That might be high enough for him to be included in the conversation for "Quality wins/losses", which would be good for Moreno's shot at the 3 seed.

Mikey England took 5th at 165 in the MAC. Only the top four qualified. Hope he can get an at large. I think he's eligible. Sucks that Eblen took the 174 spot, he's really struggled since dropping down.

 

[Judoka]

Gilman lost in the finals at Big Tens. I wonder if he'll toss the medal in the trash...

It is still crap he was allowed to wrestle at all after that slam at national duals.

 

[Judoka]

Isaac Jordan up 2-1 on Bo Jordan after the first period in the 165 Big Ten Finals.

 

[Judoka]

Tied up 2-2 going in to the third but Isaac has 2:16 of RT. He's been warned once for stalling. Down to start the third.

 

[Judoka]

Injury time for Isaac. He's still on bottom about halfway through the period. Still has RT but it is dwindling.

 

[Judoka]

3-2 win for Isaac Jordan. Not entirely sure what that'll mean for Moreno's seed but it might be good.

Check that, it looks like they're doing a true 4th match. He's still got a chance.

 

[Judoka]

England wins the true 4th place match and he'll be going to St. Louis.

 

[buf87]

Should be dieringer #1, Moreno or Sulzer#2. Moreno shouldn't drop lower than #3

 

[buf87]

Sulzer could be anywhere from #2 to #5

 

[Judoka]

The only spot left up for grabs is #1 at 197 in the ACC. So here's a full list of automatic qualifiers. Well, other than that one guy.

 

[Judoka]

Didn't like that stalemate in the Sulzer match - I think Ramos still was improving.
