This is a tough, tough tournament! We were there and I think 18 of the 20 finalists were D1 and many, many of those were starters. Fun to see Jordan Oliver, Dom Bradley, and others we so often hear about in the national wrestling news.

One of the most exciting matches I saw was the hwt semi between Oklahoma State's sophomore starter Alex Marsden and Mizzou's Devon Mellon. Mellon started for MU last year while Dom took an Olympic redshirt. It went to the max ot (triple or quadruple?) with Marsden ultimately winning 9-7.
