Hokies should be favored in nine out of ten weights classes. 174 is the only one they are not. UVA Wrestling doesnt even bother posting their rankings.

UVA's Ranked Wrestlers via Intermat
125 Roller #25
157 Washleski #30
174 Hamilton #27
Looks like 141 and 174 will be the most evenly matched weights. I think 157 and 184 are ones that could be close if the Hokies don't come out firing.
I always worry about 184 this year. 157 Miller has looked alot better so less concerned there. Have zero concern at 141.
Hopefully the lighter weights score enough bonus points that the heavier weights are just icing.
If weights weigh the same, does that mean lighter weights will score the same as heavier weights?
I agree that Miller keeps looking better. Definitely had some rust to knock off early and get his weight straightened out. I'm optimistic we will see his best wrestling in Cleveland.
WrestleStat has 141 as a 1 point match. Crook beat Porter 5-2 in January but I think it's still losable. Crook hasn't looked great in the past couple losses.
Reminder this is starting at 730pm
Not sure why no Crook at 141
Also weird no Burton
