Great job by DeWitt and Straw. Parker is THE MAN. Isley is going to be good so hoping Harrington can keep adjusting to HWT. Otherwise I'm pretty disappointed. Mostly with the guys breaking the team rules.
Love Parker’s motor and fight. Great way to start season but this is more of a case of Simmons way underperforming vs. Parker over performing. Sad that only maybe three weights are settled at 133, 141 and 184. Not a great start for Dane but I expect him to get better and better like his SO. year. Excluding injuries, it would not surprise me if all the other weights have multiple guys start throughout the season. If a guy isn’t willing to fight for 7 minutes, no matter how talented they are, I don’t think they will see the mat for duals very often.Told y'all Parker was looking very very good this year
It was good to hear Dresser commenting on toughness and commitment. He is going to bring a lot of nasty to the guys that we have not seen in the past few years.
I heard from people that were at the tournament that Parker looked really good. They also mentioned that Marcus Coleman looked good with his win over the NIU guy for 3rd. Also mentioend that our guys didn't look tired like they have the past couple years, but were still pretty tentative offensively.
Bummed we didn't get to see some of the guys who sat.

Parker wrestled hard and is always moving his feet and pressing forward. He has some good hand fighting and very tough on top. Still interested to see what happens at 149 with Dewitt, Degen, and Dante. Some let downs with the other weights. Disappointing to not see some of the guys wrestling this weekend.
Any reason why Storr didn't wrestle? He wasn't listed with the group of guys who were out for disciplinary reasons..and he was listed by Dresser as one of the guys who were fighting through injuries.. sooo did he not make weight then?
No, he was walking around and helping coach a little.
Leisure with shades of Tim Krieger on that duck under to a bear hug.
He said in media interview that he banged his head and would not be wrestling. Assume he was concussed and were holding him out.
So him and Gomez both? I saw that interview with Gomez, but don't recall one with Storr..
