So I ran this last year and it ended up going quite well, so I guess I will do it again. Brackets will be released tomorrow, Same rules as last year: You get a team of ten wrestlers. You get to pick a #1 seed through #8 seed to join your team, then pick two wrestlers lower than the #8 seed (Meaning 9-12 or US). Your team will then score points for you in accordance with the actual tournament scoring. I can keep track of it and will be able to post the team scores at the end of each round. Just post your team and I will consider you entered.
Ex: Last years winning team 125- Nicholas Megaludis (PSU)
133-(2) Logan Stieber (OSU)
141-(5)Hunter Stieber (OSU)
149-(8) Eric Grajales (MICH)
157-(7) Dylan Alton (PSU)
165-(1) David Taylor (PSU)
174-(3)Nick Amuchastegui (STAN)
184-(6)Quentin Wright (PSU)
197-Alfonso Hernandez (WYO)
285-(4) Zachery Rey (LEHIGH)

You rock! Thank you for putting this on again.

174- Josh Asper, MD #5
184- Ed Ruth, Penn State #1
197- Nathan Schiedel, Bing #7
Hwt- Alan Gelogaev, OKL ST #3

What is tiebreaker? I say # of Ohio AA's. I will say 10!

Also, I feel like Scotti Sentes has been wrestling for about 10 years now.

6 (i may have missed some) Ohio guys in at 165 alone!!!!!! Ohio boys well represented here in this years NCAA's....

125-McDonough #3
133- Stieber #1
141- Maple #2

I'll take Josh Demas -OSU 157 pounds.

If it's Ohio AA's you better define what qualifies as an Ohio guy...and I'll say 9.
