Good bad and ugly.
Well if this year has taught us anything...it is weird. And I will take whatever it gives me without any expectations. Otherwise it is enough to drive you mad.
There is a whole lot of good right now, so let me get the ugly and bad out of the way.
Ugly: In what was some minor performance concerns, turned into a big time wake up call, and quickly became a freefall, Mekhi is hurt in more than the literal and physical sense. Prayers sent and we won't know anything until ACCT. Will he take the mat and forfeit so he can wrestle in NCAAT. My gut tells me NO. Unless he can wrestle 100% in ACCT, he is done for season. He has Olympic qualifying to worry about. This is no longer just about VT it is about Mekhi and his USA dreams.
Bad: We didn't see Borst wrestle, but that could just be precautionary.
Good: Lots of it.
- Every other weight class last night. Prata, Brady, and Howard especially.
- We win ACC Dual go undefeated and that is pretty nice.
- We are young and trending up.
- This year is a mulligan in its truest sense.
- Amine went 197...that possibly indicates a much easier path for Bolen if Amine stays 197.
- This is a TEAM and if Mekhi/Borst sit out to heal and rest....there is a whole lot of other great guys to get excited about in the ACCT/NCAAT and cheer on.
