    The word "battles" might be a bit overstating the resistance he got from us his senior year (below). But Sollars did get him when they were sophomores.

    125- I was going to pick Figs at whatever seed they gave him .
    Reasons … He came back from a loss to Provo from Stanford in OT 13-8, in early February to beat Provo 4-1 at PAC 12 Championships . 2 of his loses was injury defaulted and was giving a loss to Volk at Cliff Keen which is debatable. You can check that match out on Flo. Flo even did a story on that match . His only real loss match was to California and Oregon State Rival Maximo Renteria . Wonder why Maximo didn’t wrestle in NCAA’s cause he would have AA if not a finalist . Both know each other very well . 
     
    As stated earlier Rich is Family . Asa wrestled with him on Team Shutt a few times while in High School . Super Proud of him .

    One of those Little Rock AA's used to wreak havoc at the Mater Dei Holiday Classic and had some battles with some of our best.

    In case you missed it on X or the college thread: Christian Mejia from Elkhart Memorial, Derek Blubaugh from Bloomington South, and Shawn Streck from Merrillville all picked up D2 national titles last night.
     
    Mejia had finished 5th twice before, was seeded only 3rd, and was in his final year of eligibility. 
     
    Blubaugh had twice been national runner-up to his finals opponent, and had lost to him 5-0 two weeks ago, but finally got over the hump.
     
    Streck picked up his second consecutive title. 
     
    Congrats, guys!!

    That match was SCARY as a Mendez fan. I hadn't seen Echemendia. That dude is physical and on you. He wore Mendez down in a way that I haven't seen. I can't believe he took 5 losses coming into nationals.

    So true. And if you're a Woods guy, I think last year was the real "rip your heart out" year. Compared to this year, I think he was just slightly back up the hill at his true apex then. And a once-in-a-lifetime throw by a guy who's never hit a throw took what was so nearly his.

    It's funny, too, how matchups matter. Woods controlled Echemendia twice, Mendez pushed Woods around--but Echemendia was such a handful for Mendez.

    I think he ended up wrestling the perfect match. He pressured, pressured, pressured, wore him down, and kept testing the waters to snipe a low attack all through the last half of the match before finally getting that opening at the death. It was absolutely perfect and he needed every second to pull it off. What a thing of beauty!

    Gotta be one of the first college signees ever from Indiana whose team didn't have a spot for him in the sectional lineup--and he's going to a D1 school. Nuts!! He's a beast. He deserves it.
