Lots and lots of boos for Burroughs, but he wrestled incredibly well and intelligently. Soundly beats Mesenbrink. Burroughs prods Mesenbrink and the crowd booed him lustily. It was chippy on both ends and Burroughs had a great strategy. These people are nuts if they think Burrtoughs won for any other reason than being a much better, complete wrestler than the very, very young and less experienced Mesenbrink. Pretty weak in my opinion. You don't boo Michael Jordan and you don't boo Jordan Burroughs, again in my humble opinion. Nolf all over upstart Jacques 9-2.

Like Matt said, I figured OSU had a succession plan with Coleman Scott, who really elevated North Carolina during his tenure there. Those are some massive shoes to fill for Scott. Smith has always been one of my favorite figures in NCAA wrestling and I will miss his scowls matside. He often has a big presence at World Team and Olympic Team Trials and I'm sure this week will be no different.

Thanks guys. I very much appreciate the support I’ve gotten from the Brownsburg wrestling community, and the Central Indiana wrestling community as a whole. I’m firmly convinced that being involved in this great sport has been a key factor in my fight. “Once you’ve wrestled, everything else in life is easy.” -Dan Gable I don’t know about easy, but it definitely helped!
