Penn State wrestling wins 2022 NCAA Championship team title in Detroit
Penn State powered by the field during a tremendous three days of wrestling in Detroit. Now, it is officially this year's champion.
I know a lot of people bust on Iowa, and I think their coaches are very poor role models, but man I kemmerer a warrior. He could have easily mff out after his loss.
Well, PSU Wrestling spoiled Ohio State’s hosting party a couple years ago (bkz that’s what Bo does) & now this year PSU spoils Michigan’s hosting party. It feels good doesn’t it?
Trent Hidlay lives on the boundary. Kinda horse$h1t…

Not sure. I have an Athletic Department contact for a number of years that sent me a message. That is what he told me. If Kerk is hurt or sick, we will really never know since coach Sanderson typically does not discuss injuries.
285 3rd Place Match: Greg Kerkvliet vs. Jordan Wood (Lehigh)
Kerk takes a MF, so he finishes 4th

Just seems very uncompetitor like, which doesn’t fit any college wrestlers.
I just got a summary notification from gopsuports.com that Kerk was battling an injury during his last match. Their summary talks about Kerk essentially clinching the team title by defeating Parris from Michigan.
I've got something to deal with it, so I'm out.
Nice that PSU wrapped up the team title before Session 6.
I'll see you guys tonight. Just a reminder, I don't do PBP during the Championships. I just sit back and enjoy things like a fan, but I will participate in the thread.

During a match last month (can't recall the exact one) Kerk came up limping on his one leg. It looks like he battled through this injury through the entire NCAA championship. Makes reasonable sense not to aggravate the injury for next season.
I think it was late in the Nebraska dual that he clutched at his hamstring.
Who cares. Kerk beat Paris twice and was the Wolverines slayer! He would have beaten Wood for 3rd if healthy. Dude is a champ and even Gable said he is going to win it in the future.
Have to give the boys over on HR board something to chatter about. Not much else to talk about over there.
Sorry, but who gives a damn if some of you are disappointed with Kerk MFF.
Yes, would have been great to see him wrestle for 3rd, but if he is unable to go, he is unable.
His future is more important than some of you being disappointed because he did not come out for his 3/4 match.

Not worth risk of further hurting himself - would have been quite enjoyable to see him destroy another opponent though!
If Kerk stays on the weights he’s going to be National Champion next year. Needs about 10 more pounds of great weight.
Worst session of wrestling ever.........I did my taxes between matches. 
I watched quite a few ACC matches this year. I told my wife all season he is NOT the 2nd best 49lb’er.
Poetic justice -- sort of. First, a mistake vs Cassioppi at the B1G's gives away enough points to cost PSU a league team title; two weeks later his consy victory, apparently fighting thru injury, allows PSU to wrap up the National Title going into the championship round.
Without a Gable Steveson to contend with, if he can stay healthy, Kerkvliet obviously figures to be well into the hunt for both B1G and national titles next year.

Kerk added 15.5 points to the team total , wrestled tough against the Olympic gold medalist, and put the fork in Meatchicken's hopes for the team title. Heckuva tournament for the young man.
