2x NCAA All-American Mason Parris (photo courtesy of Sam Janicki; SJanickiPhoto.com)Week 1 started with a bang, with some surprising dual and tournament results. But that's what makes it fun, right?
Not if your Fantasy roster is on the losing end of those surprises…..
Currently, Mason Parris (Mich) leads all Fantasy Wrestlers with 26 Fpts (three pins, two majors), but just two points behind him is redshirting true freshman Joseph Martin from Northwestern. In the Freshman/Sophomore Division at the Michigan State Open, Martin won by pin in four straight matches (all under in 2 minutes).
Seven redshirts and five "back-ups" are in the Top-33 Overall Fantasy Wrestlers after Week 1. With more tournaments on the horizon in the front end of this season, I expect to see this trend continue.
Check out the full list of the current Top-33 Fantasy Wrestlers after Week 1, HERE.
On to Week 2
70 of the 80 D1 teams will be in action this week in some type of match or another, with 17 of last season's Top-20 Teams competing. A highly competitive week which bodes well for those highly ranked wrestlers you may not have been able to use last week.
Aside from the typical duals, tri-meets, and tournaments, we have WrangleMania and the pooled round-robin event: Journeymen Classic. The Journeymen Classic is usually pools of three or four wrestlers and gets two or three matches on the day.
Several tournaments to keep an eye on that will have a lot of D1 competition are: Appalachian State Invite, Bearcat Open, Bison Open, The Battle at The Citadel, Tiger Style Invite, and Cowboy Open.
Other tournaments, which may have less D1 competition (and thus less opportunities to score fantasy points) are the Grand View Open, Luther College Open, and the Ohio Intercollegiate Open.
See all upcoming tournaments HERE on WrestleStat.
Tournament entries continue to update the closer to registration cut-off/day of the event, and we don't want to make an "ass out of u and me" with teams and entries, so be sure to check back and turn those notifications "ON" for our updates and news.
A reminder of some important rules:
