Missouri v Pitt Match

Anyone finding any results? It started at 6:00 c.t. so it should be over by now.

Specifically Gavin v Williamson (174) and Headlee v Marable (165)

I can't find anything yet, but just so you know, Williamson was not a lock to wrestle 174; Joey Garrity also traveled with the team.

He doesn't care about Williamson or Garrity, nor does he care about Headlee. Marable, and Gavin are on his Fantasy team.

didn't you just KNOW that Missouri was going to move Marable up so that my two fantasy guys actually wrestled each other? that will hurt the old point totals...ouch...

is that a first where two guys from the same team have actually wrestled each other this year?

gavin wins 7-3 over marable...ends up being a pretty smart move for missouri as bonus points there could have certainly made that a tighter match...

missouri has a great line-up for moving guys around...they seem to use it alot as well to their advantage...

Smith really likes to use strategy and moving wrestlers around. Sometimes it doesn't work (Minny at National Duals), sometimes it does.

I should have known something was up. This was the line-up posted on mutigers.com:

25: No. 11 Tony Pescaglia or John Olanowski vs. Brad Gentzle 133: No. 2 Tyler McCormick vs. Jimmy Conroy 141: No. 18 Marcus Hoehn or Willie Saxton vs. Drew Headlee 149: No. 15 Josh Wagner vs. Joey Ecklof 157: No. 13 Michael Chandler or Emanuel Brooks vs. No. 6 Matt Kocher 165: No. 4 Nicholas Marable vs. Ethan Headlee 174: James Williamson or Joey Garrity vs. No. 1 Keith Gavin 184: No. 5 Raymond Jordan vs. Dave Sullivan 197: No. 6 Maxwell Askren vs. Dave Crowell HWT: No. 12 Mark Ellis vs. No. 15 Zach Sheaffer

i actually think in the dual match with Minnesota at National Duals the strategy DID work for Missouri...it put them in a position to win that dual where without doing the move, I think they would have been conceding.

I wonder if his use of this strategy affects recruiting one way or another...

I personally love the idea of moving up and down the line-ups and creating mismatches but I can't guarantee every wrestler with individual aspirations would think the same way.
