Penn vs. Lehigh


Spladle88

Recommended Posts

Should be another good EIWA matchup following on the heels of Lehigh's dramatic come from behind win over Cornell in the Snakepit last week 17-16. 

Crookham vs. Colaiocco is the biggest ranked matchup.

Much like Cornell dual expect a lot of back and forth in this dual again as there are a lot of difficult  matchups for both teams......

Mountain Hawks in the Rankings
#17 Lehigh hosts the Quakers with seven Mountain Hawks ranked in the top 25 of their weight classes, led by the top-ranked wrestler at 133, Ryan Crookham (#1). #2 Luke Stanich (125), #7 Michael Beard (197), #8 Nathan Taylor (285), #13 Malyke Hines (141), and #23 Max Brignola (157) account for the other Mountain Hawks nationally ranked heading into Friday's dual.

 
Probable Lineup at Lehigh
125 – Max Gallagher 
133 – #10 Michael Colaiocco or Alex Almeyda
141 – #13 CJ Composto
149 – Andy Troczynski or Kelly Dunnigan
157 – #24 Lucas Revano or Jude Swisher
165 – Kaya Sement
174 – #7 Nick Incontrera
184 – #17 Maximus Hale
197 – Martin Cosgrove or #24 Cole Urbas
285 – John Stout

 

Sunday match v. Stanford in the Palestra:

Cardinal in the Rankings
Stanford travels to the City of Brotherly Love with five grapplers nationally ranked, with #11 Daniel Cardenas (157) leading the team. #12 Nico Provo (125), #17 Nick Stemmet (197), #21 Jaden Abas (149), and #21 Lorenzo Norman (174) even out the other Cardinal who are ranked in the top-22 of their weight classes this week.

Above is cut and paste from Penn's web page.

Should be a lot of good individual matches in both.  Lehigh seems to have the edge in clear favorites and likely bonus points.  Penn probably has to win at least 5 of 6 from 141 through 184 - which will not be easy.

I have very little doubt at this point that he will be wrestling all year, with a few days off to help weight management....for instance will probably only wrestle one day this weekend either Penn tonite or Navy tomorrow.........but not definite yet, we'll see......

Stanich has one more date to give before the decision needs to be made. So, assuming he wrestles one of the two this weekend we won't know anything else (barring a public announcement) for at least two weeks as we're off next weekend.
