Flo Revives All-Star Classic
The NWCA All-Star Classic will return on November 22 and showcase the top talent in college wrestling. Here are a few matches to look forward to:
- 141. Cole Matthews vs Real Woods
- 165. David Carr vs Quincy Monday
- 174. Mekhi Lewis vs Carter Starocci
- 285. Tony Cassioppi vs Greg Kerkvliet
The event will be streamed on FloWrestling.
My Take:
Woah. On a scale of 1 to 10, my "hype levels" are a 10. I'm glad we don't have to wait until the NCAA finals for a Lewis vs Starocci rematch.
Who's #1 HS Event Results
FloWrestling held their annual Who's #1 event to crown the top wrestlers in the country. Here are a few notable results. . .
Future Ohio Stater Rocco Welsh defeated future Penn Stater Josh Barr (5-4).
Ben Davino avenged his Ironman loss to McGowan with a big cradle (6-3).
Michigander Beau Mantanona pinned future Nittany Lion Tyler Kasak.
Angelo Ferrari won the four-way at 165 lbs with a decision and major.
My Take:
Sometimes I forget how fun it is to watch high school wrestling. But my favorite part is getting a glimpse into the future stars of college. What a stellar event!
Kai Orine Designs a Shirt
133 lbs Wolfpack wrestler Kai Orine designed a shirt that all fans will wear at this years' Pack United football game.
He incorporated parts of NC State's campus into the design, including Reynold Coliseum, the home of their wrestling matches.
You can order his shirt here.
My Take:
We interviewed Kai about his talents a few months back, and you can tell he is talented. I love hearing "off-the-mat" accomplishments that make these wrestlers who they are. Great work, Kai!
