I looked up the Rankings for each team that NDSU will face at the South Beach Duals, not as many top ranked wrestlers as I would have liked to see but I still think this is better than going to the Scuffle or Midlands just because of the timing of those tournaments being so close to the Christmas/New Years break.

125
Michael Russo Cornell is #20 on Track & #15 Open Mat

141
Yianni Diakomihalis Cornell is #2 on Flo, Intermat, Track & Open Mat. After Bryce Meredith's win v Dean Heil yesterday he will either stay at #2 or move up to the top spot.

149
Jacob Macalolooy Columbia is #25 on Track

157
BJ Clagon Rider is #9 on Flo, #8 on Intermat & Open Mat, & #6 on Track

165
Chad Walsh Rider is #6 on Flo & Open Mat, #3 on Intermat, & #7 on Track
Jonathon Chavez Cornell is #20 on Flo, #16 on Intermat, #14 on Track & #13 on the Open Mat

174
Brandon Womack Cornell is #17 on Flo, #16 on Intermat & #21 on Track

184
Max Dean Cornell is #13 on Flo, #11 on Intermat, #15 on Track & #10 on the Open Mat

197
Ben Honis Cornell is #20 on the Open Mat

Jeramy Sweany Cornell is #25 on Track

[Big Bird]

Today should be a really good test. We're underdogs in both duals today but neither dual is unwinnable. There should be plenty of good matches and chances for guys to make some statement wins. If we come away 1-1 in duals today, I'd consider it a win.

Against Cornell, Cam has a really big match to try to avenge a loss vs Tucker. I give NDSU at least a reasonable chance at 125, 133, 149, 157, and 165. I consider 184-HWT to be a bit longer shots to win, but they are all possible.

Against Rider, the highlights for me are at 157, 165, and to a lesser extent 149 and 125.

My fed isn't working for mat 3...

[Big Bird]

I didn't see a single second of the match, but Binachi wins 13-9 according to twitter. My feed is working now and Cam just started

[Big Bird]

Sykora wins 4-3 avenging an earlier loss to Tucker. He outwrestled Tucker all match.

World champ Diakomihalis up vs Hampton.

[Big Bird]

Yianni D is so fricking good and he's only getting better. He pins Hampton in the 2nd period with the tech locked up.

To win the dual, have to rattle off wins from 149-165

[Big Bird]

Gliva wins 9-6, to put NDSU back up 9-6

One thing to watch is this ref is very quick to call a stalemate.

[Big Bird]

Ream down 4-2 after one. Having trouble finishing his attacks and giving up good re-attacks. Absolutely can't lose this one

[Big Bird]

Clay up 7-5 heading to the third. Both guys look kind of tired
