A couple of decent duals here. Rider brings ranked wrestlers at 5/10 weights, Bucknell also ranked at 5/10 weights. Neither team with a top 15 guy, but still some solid tests for the guys.
Flo/Intermat
125 - Rider NR/NR, Bucknell NR/NR - good opportunity for Kysen to bounce back off of a tough loss.
133 - Rider NR/NR, Bucknell 31/30 - I assume we will see Osmani in one of these matches, both should be dominant wins.
141 - Rider NR/24, Bucknell 15/18 - solid couple of tests for J Frost. Opportunity for him to earn a higher ranked win against Bucknell. Frost vs Bucknell could be the match of the day.
149 - Rider 18/16, Bucknell NR/NR - very solid test for paniro against Alvarez of Rider, he is funky. That also could be the match of the day.
157 - Rider NR/24, Bucknell NR/NR - Hope to see clean, dominant wrestling from Chittum.
165 - Rider NR/NR, Bucknell 26/22 - excited to see Riggins here. Huge opportunity for him to gain some confidence while earning a ranked win.
174 - Rider NR/NR, Bucknell 24/32 - similar to above, good opportunity for bounce back matches while getting a solid test.
184 - Rider 17/17, Bucknell NR/NR - Bockman vs Rider is the 3rd option for match of the day. Hope to see him keep it rolling with positionally sound wrestling and toughness.
197 - Rider NR/NR, Bucknell 29/29 - Hope to see more out of Schon in these matches. He had a tough day yesterday.
285 - Rider 21/20, Bucknell NR/NR. Szuba for Rider is very tough but hasn’t seen the mat much yet. Hope to see more offense and smarter wrestling from Peanut.
Osmani, Rojas and Yonger for sure traveled and at least two of them (no idea on Yonger) are likely to get a match Saturday. Not sure who else traveled.
Still a few good tests for the guys coming up this weekend. Sure beats some of the D2 or JUCO duals some other schools have had this year.
