fay Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I saw they are both signed up this weekend for the last chance Olympic trial qualifier. Both at 66k. Pretty cool Alex entered. Jordan Humphrey at 66 and Brandon wright at 60 as well. Good luck to all Indiana wrestlers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drooke Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It is crazy to think that jason could meet darrion caldwell this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligned Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Awesome opportunity for Jason. Anybody know why guys like Nick Simmons and Jake Herbert are on the entry list? They're obviously already qualified. EDIT--Found the answer: anyone can enter, but previously qualified wrestlers who place Top 2 don't count toward the number of spots awarded. Also, how many qualifying spots are open for each weight class? EDIT--The two highest placing individuals who haven't previously qualified will be awarded spots in the Trials.

maligned Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 One more note: they weigh in the night before at +2kg (4.4 pounds). That's basically 150 pounds for the 66kg class. That means Jason will be facing guys with man strength that will be stepping on the mat the next day at around 165 pounds. That's a tall, tall order. Alex used to cut to 60kg (132 pounds) for big events like this. Neither weight seems optimum for these two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be fun to track tomorrow. themat.com is supposed to stream a couple mats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julio Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I know that some wrestlers that have already qualified for the trials, will enter these type of tournaments to eliminate others from qualifying. With them taking the top 2 that have not already qualified, they might just be getting some tune up matches in before the trials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligned Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Jason gets Gage Harrison, a freshman at Oklahoma City University, first round. Darrion Caldwell if he wins. Alex has Brett Robbins, who had some success at Northern Iowa. Lots of potential studs within the couple rounds after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 T-shirts will now face Joe Johnston Johnson was a 2X state champ in Kansas, he then wrestled at IOWA where he was a 2X AA, finishing 2nd at 157 in 05' and 6th at 157 in 06' With winner to face Cary Kolat or Zack Bailey. Kolat's already a OTT qualifier from past performance so I believe 2nd and 3rd place will get the final qualifying spots. We still have a few other guys in the consolations fighting for a spot. I'm not sure if they will wrestle to a true second place at this event or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
