Your ACC Champion Hokies Take on Duke Tomorrow 1 pm

Since we wrestle at 1 pm tomorrow, this will probably be informal. Im gonna give gut feeling without justification at each weight, then cover 133, 149 165 and 197 in more detail

125 Tech by TF
133 Tech by Major (potential Forfeit)
141 Tech by decision (Lanky Finesilver)
149 Tech by decision (this is a total upset homer pick)
157 Tech by Decision (ugly match)
165 Duke by decision
174 Tech by MD
184 Tech by Decision
197 Duke by Decision
HWT Tech by Decision (2 pts short of major, walz cruises)

133 Dennis needs a match here. He'd crush Leylaud if he gets trotted out here. Problem is i have no idea why the forfeit occured last weeked (late tired didnt research). Dennis needs to improve his win %, especially if the Bronze scale for at large is close (could be as low as .600)

149 Huge match for Sal on his bid to NCAAs. A win here and his RPI could get over the hump. Finesilvers are a long lanky bunch who love their ankle picks and ride very well. Sal needs to press the pace for the upset and after tonites performance under a lot of pressure i see nothing but good results for mastriani,

165 McFaddens having freshman lumps right now. Full disclosure i havent watched the NCSU TF against Roskopf, but its hard to spin a 15 point loss. The problem is Faust is cut from the same mold as Roskopf and Wiercioch, hammers on top who love to funk it up. At the hokie open i thought David let one get away that might bite him. For his ACC seeding, he has to win here. Got a really bad feeling on this one.

197 Just like Ty had a measuring stick match today, Hartman does that for Jared. Right now Jareds flirting with the edge of the podium. This win could really help him especially with seeding. Dont see how Haught closes the gap, but one to pay attention to.

Its late im exhausted and happy.

Tech wins 28-6
