Wrestleknownothing Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Final vote totals: Brooks: 53 first place votes (48 committee votes + 5 fan votes) Keckeisen: 8 first place votes Starocci: 2 first place votes Kerkvliet: 1 first place vote Tough year. Starocci finishes as a four timer and still winds up a distant third in the Hodge vote. Oof. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many ncaa champs this year finished with 0 bonus point wins? this was against a series of other aging / injured (but great) opponents. Before anyone says anything. All the brackets have tough guys and tough matches. Keck at 184 had 5 bonus wins brooks at 197 4…. (133 and 157 had 4 too) Hwt kerk 3 125, 141, 149, and the toughest weight 165 had 2 Cstar 0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But given the criteria, it makes sense. The other thing that is wild to me is that in four years each, eight years combined, Diakomihalis and Starocci received a TOTAL of 27 first place votes (16 for Starocci and 11 for Diakomihalis) which would not be enough to even sniff first place in a single year.* *In 2016 Dieringer won with 27 votes, but there were also 14 fewer total votes that year (-23.7%).

How do you think someone worth 0 bonus in the tourney and two losses on the year would beat someone who was far more dormant and undefeated? Explain the criteria.

I was kidding with the 9 seed and no Hodge that he got no respect. Kindve a play on Jimmy certain he had to get OW if won it from the 9 seed. Starocci's objective was to win the tournament, played it safe like the injured Eric Siebert did. I'm sure he could've opened up more but no reason to take a chance. Again review the paths of Siebert & Schmidt at Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
