The Bison wrestling team is in the Virginia Duals this weekend.

We are paired up against #8 Arizona State in the first round.

Beat Arizona St 22-19, then lost to C. Mich 31-10. Next up Binghamton

Central Michigan was seeded #1 in the tournament

Wow, we got a win against the #8 team?? That's pretty legit.

8th seed in the tourney.. not the nation. But a good win nonetheless.

It looks like we've pretty much performed how we should looking at the Intermat rankings. Not trying to minimalize wins though, being #22 is awesome! Binghamton should be tough as they're at #23 it seems (tied with Wisconsin).

Also, those rankings are a little different than a dual. Intermat tries to predict how teams will finish in the NCAA tournament. In tournaments you get points for wins and placing. So 3 studs could presumably get you a pretty good placing. In a dual each match is scored. 3 studs won't win you a dual. Not saying the Bison only have 3 studs or whatever. Just a little analogy.

Thanks! I just a wrestling noob who likes to pull for any sport the bison might be doing well in this year :hide:

No prob! And you are right in the fact that a team that is ranked is probably going to do pretty good in a dual.

road or hansel.... is Lehmann wrestling or is he still ineligable?

He hasn't wrestled in this tournament.

[Hansel]

Bison beat Binghamton 30-12, they will face the Boise/Army winner next. They don't have the individual results for todays dual up yet- but it appeared Stoll did not wrestle against C. Mich last night.

[Hansel]

It will be NDSU/Boise St at 3 Central. Stoll wrestled against Binghamton- but not Lehman. Bison gave up 1 forfeit against Binghamton and Az St, and 2 against C. Mich.
