SocraTease Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Fix is a Fixture. Perhaps they should let him in every year with an honorary at large bid. He turned 26 yesterday (March 11) and I suppose he could actually wrestle against someone who is 8 years younger if he gets a true freshman. He probably has "old man" (Dad) strength.

I’ve got Fix with a 16-5 NCAA tournament career record. I think at some point on old forums we figured out Myles Anine had the record for most matches at NCAA tournament, I forget the number but high 20s. Myles had 5 tournaments as well. Fix should end up close and if by chance he loses early and makes a run back to 3rd he might own it. Lewis not as many with the year where he defaulted out after losing in quarters. No clue on Elam career count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvermedal2 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Nate Tomasello was 1,3,3,3 with a record of 23-3 over four seasons (I think) of comp. at NCAA's. Fix must badly want to win a title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would have told Vito he was done after last year. He would have made the smarter long-term move for Vito, sat him for this year, had him finish his school credits, and be ready for the olympic process. This year absolutely looks like it took the tread off Vito's tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be more accurate to say Koll would be too busy hanging out with boosters and attending fundraisers to have the time to actually have a conversation with Vito? 1 1 1 I Don't Agree With What I Posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice of the Quakers Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I just hope somebody - anybody - talks to the ridiculousness of Fix's participation in this year's tourney on ESPN's telecast this year and to the fact that he could've taken his 2nd ORS and been competing next season. In team sports, these extra years, COVID and otherwise, are killing chances for high school athletes to join college teams. This will trickle into individual sports like wrestling if this nonsense is not stopped. Dan McDonald, Penn '93 danmc167@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
