Wow--if ISU had had Gibson, they might well have won it!

Cole Shafer who weighted in at 184 and wrestled Hwt, got taken down on the edge of the mat with less than 5 seconds left in the match to lose 4-3. He avoids that, we win the dual.
Mikey England weighs in at 174 and wrestles 184 in place of Beard and he wins.
Good effort by the guys, just need 1 little thing to go our way and we can create some optimism.

there isnt a minimum weight for heavyweight?

I saw part of this on TV and the 125 match may have been the most boring one in the history of wrestling. Both guys just sat there on their frickin' knees flailing waving at each other for the whole match.

If I remember correctly, you can wrestle up one weight. So he could weight in at 184.1 which would let him wrestle 197 or HWT. If he were 183.9, he could only go to 197.
