  1. No, Mayo won fair and square with a couple gorgeous cradles. One thing though. Don't tell Baylor that THEY are the ones stalling...
  2. In reply to Mayo pinning the Baylor 160 (Doug Vaughn): He caught Vaughn in a fluke hold. He was losing by at least seven or eight at the time.
  3. 130 in DII is pretty darn tough. All of the top six ranked are very solid wrestlers, and Oddo is a monster.
  4. Why didn't Joe Young wrestle Vance?
  5. Depending on the day's schedule (different each day of the week), we will go for 2-3 hours. First (after a good warm up), we start out with individual notes for 15-30 where we focus on our own stuff. Then we mix it up between intense drilling and new technique for an hour to an hour-and-a-half. After that, we'll wrestle two or three matches. Finally, depending on the day, we'll either do rope-climbing and box-jumps along w/ sprints (Mon, Wed, Fri) or "senior conditioning" and motion-positioning drills (Tue, Thur). Room stays open for extra work after practice (air dyne, extra matches, etc...), and is always open in the mornings for the guys who want to come in.
  6. Depends on what you are looking for. Brands runs a mean intensive camp at UTC that is limited to only 40 people and brings in the BEST from all around. Last year, everybody in the room was a state placer and there was some serious head-bustin (Trust me, I know!). If you're looking for more of a technique-oriented camp, OU has an outstanding one. There are three sessions a day, each of which is divided into two more sessions (6 total); three of the sessions are devoted to technique -- and YOU get to choose what YOU want to work on at individual "stations" (i.e. cradles, set-ups, etc...) -- and three to live wrestling on dual teams that compete in a tourney. You can either do a 5 or 10- day technique camp, an 10-day intensive camp (technique + HARD work), or a 5-day kids camp. The camps are very reasonably priced and you eat at the college dining hall (excellent choices). I've also heard good things about OSU, but still recommend the "Oklahoma Gold" camps.
  7. You could get cauli from having your head slammed to the mat every day at practice or just from getting it pinched enough times in your headgear. Let people see you're a wrestler by the way you carry yourself and not by whether or not your ears are knotted. I won't lie though, I have some cauli myself and am kind of proud of it, but it really isn't worth the pain. Before you call me a wussy though, just think about this: would you rather have to stop and take a break every time your sensitive ear hits the mat, or wrestle without worry of pain that comes from hitting a good cut-double when your ears are filled with fluid?
  8. Manson seems to really be focused this year. State is his to lose again...
  9. I actually got my cauli FROM MY HEADGEAR! I wore the same headgear from like 5th to 8th grade; it was taped and I didn't re-tape it as I grew, so one day it got pinched real bad and I fell to the mat hard enough to make it start filling up like a balloon. Got it drained with a needle and now it is pretty much normal-sized and just really hard in that area. I would suggest buying a headgear like the Cliff-Keen Tornado, where the hard ear piece is not rubbing up against the ear. The headgear could be the very reason for the cauli development.
  10. 130 & 135 are loaded with upperclassmen, making both pretty darn tough. As always, 160 has several studs and 189 hosts some hosses.
  11. Hussein took second today at the Dade County tournament and pounded (AL 5A state champ) Chase Cuthbertson (11-5?) on the way. This is only his second year and he is definetely one of the most raw athletes I have ever witnessed. He didn't wrestle at the Catholic tourney cause he wasn't down to weight. I watched him beat Bundy, and I've got to say that -- if Bundy doesn't get off of his heels -- he may be able to beat him again! The only thing missing is experience, but every day he wrestles with guys like Manson in the room.
  12. Why would you say McCallie has 135, 145, 152. & 189? Who does McCallie have to match Doster, Waddell, Spitalny, and Walker respectively? Also, why do you think they have 130? Baylor's got a tough new sophomore from AL at that weight, and I believe Miller from Cleveland put a hurting on McCallie's 30lber.
  13. Here are the results best I can remember: 103: Baylor Dec. 112: Baylor Fall 119: CH Dec. 125: Baylor Major dec. 130: CH Fall 135: CH Fall 140: CH Major dec. 145: Baylor Major dec. 152: Baylor Dec. 160: Baylor Dec. 171: CH Dec. 189: Baylor Major dec. 215: CH Fall 275: CH Dec.
