Funny... Cassioppi doesn't quite fit the skinny scarecrow look.

As a matter of fact, he looks quite good and fit for 213+ lbs!

Mirasola over Wick for the second time in a couple weeks. That’s pretty damn impressive for a HS senior.

I had questions about day 2 Cass on the first cut of his life. Unfortunately I think we have the answer. Good thing he doesn't have to do anything for 5:55 in his next match.

it really is wild how good these high schoolers are...i'm waiting for a high schooler to beat an ncaa champion and lose to a middle schooler the next weekend.

Interesting that Mirasola is being coached by McKnight today against Dean. His twin is wearing a NLWC sweatshirt in the corner, too.

Varner has to be pumped about getting both of them.

Really good match, by the way. Mirasola has defense I’d expect to see from a middleweight.

I wish Warner would try harder the first 98% of a match. I'm pretty sure I'm the only Warner fan left and it's getting harder every moment to root knowing he doesn't have to cut as much but still has no oomph.

Traub's win over Thomas for 3rd @ 125Kg, 8-5

That's it till the finals @ 2pm?

he would get hated on a lot less if he didn't wrestle for Iowa, and I don't think thats true of everyone. THe mean spirited types love nothing more than an Iowa guy they can reliably yell stalling at.

Anyone else think it a bit poetic that Gas Tank Gary just placed 3rd at Senior Nationals to qualify for OTT?

The guy is the Absolute People's Champion.
