Key ACCT Weights IMO

Looking at the ACCT brackets…really impressed with what the young guys have done this year! 141/149/157 are the keys to ACCT victory and potentially a stronger than expected run in NCAAT.

125: Norstrem will need to beat Fausz out of the gate. Fausz win by TF in the dual. The good news is Norstrem got lucky with a #3 BYE so he will still be fresh. I think he closes the gap but does not look promising.

141: A BIG one. Moore gets Headley whom he beat in a close one 3-2 in the dual. This time the #2 seed and BYE are key as Headley will have already had to wrestle. Moore really needs to just get it done right away, because things will just get harder on wrestle backs and any “freshness” advantage disappears.

149: This is TOUGH and I don’t like this for Blees one bit. He will have to go against Donoghue after having already wrestled and he lost a close one here in the dual. Then he may have to go against Lee on short notice; a guy he has not wrestled against but Chishko struggled against. It seems EVERY match was down to the wire for Blees during the duals. He is capable of winning the whole thing or missing out on the NCAAT.

157: This is a wildcard. We really do not know what to expect here as BC has been out and has not wrestled some of these guys. He will have to pull the major upset in semis or beat someone good twice.

174: Can Bolen keep the magic going?

Blees is a lock for an at large bid. ** -- hokietony 03/02/2018 4:19PM

I think he would be a lock as well. ** -- Hokie Flyer 03/02/2018 5:07PM

The bye at 125 is not very lucky and seems likely to cost us points. -- nvpbrown 03/02/2018 12:54PM

Technically, he should get the pts for a forfeit and advancement ** -- Palmetto Hokie 03/02/2018 1:52PM

Good point. That is assuming he will lose against Fausz. -- Hokie Flyer 03/02/2018 1:37PM

Need to hold serve in expected NCSU matches -- Pylons 03/02/2018 11:03AM

Agree. Those 4 matches plus Blees-Donahue are the 5 biggest to me. -- hokie576 03/02/2018 11:46AM

Norstem is another possibility. -- IV_Hokie12 03/02/2018 12:28PM

If he somehow sticks Fausz with one of his throws we would all lose it. -- hokie576 03/02/2018 1:23PM

He’s pretty good at those throw when he goes after it. -- emhokie 03/02/2018 4:01PM

Odd UNC has nobody they can weigh in @ 125 while they are hosting. ** -- hokie576 03/02/2018 12:33PM

Yeah not sure what is going on. Maybe too late to burn a redshirt. -- Hokie Flyer 03/02/2018 12:50PM

BC -- wrestlingfan 03/02/2018 11:18AM

Agree for most part. But got a good feeling about Blees ** -- wrestlingfan 03/02/2018 10:50AM

Our young Grapplers certainly have become stronger as the season went on. -- Hokie Flyer 03/02/2018 11:39AM
