24-25 Lineup starting to come into focus?

[truth-and-reason]

Snippets copied and pasted from Casey Cunningham's email to PSU Wrestling fans:

"Next up we have 2 guys competing this weekend in Omaha, Nebraska in the Non-Olympic weight team trials. Levi Haines is competing at 79KG and Connor Mirasola is competing at 92KG this Friday and Saturday. It will be a fun weekend to watch Levi compete up a couple weights from last year and to watch Connor let it fly again this weekend."

"In October we will have Mitchell Mesenbrink competing in the U23 World Championship at 74kg in Albania trying to bring home another World Medal. "

79Kg is 174lbs
74Kg is 163lbs

In addition to these posts, based on 1st-hand conversations, it seems very likely Mesenbrink intends to wrestle NCAA at 165, Haines at 174, Starroci at 184.

There are other very talented guys in the mix at these weights and you can never predict injuries, so the preseason competition in the room will be very interesting.

Good catch and info. Thanks! Must be late entry for Haines and Mirasolas. Didn't see them on original entry list over at FLO. Good stuff.

If so, is Facundo out then?

No spots are give free in the room. Haines has to beat him. Wasn't that close in freestyle. And going up 2 weight classes extremely tough.

No doubt. It's a big jump. I give that more weight than the freestyle result, personally, but it's part of the pie for sure. Very interesting to see how this all shakes out.

This could possibly be the best PSU team ever. That’s a mouth full considering our previous teams. I’m not sure how much bonus power we will have. It would be great to see them beat the point total record at Nationals.

Probably have 10 AAs (plus more that will be backups). The "missing" 125 from that list could win it all this year.

Lightning Luke at 125 will be handful. This list also neglects Nagao who, if healthy, will have something to say at 133.

At this point they are just throwing names in at some weight classes.

Bo knows Nit wrestling!

Cael will be wrestling a lot of guys in dual meets this year. Top guys will wrestle just enough for top seeds at B1G’s. Wouldn’t be surprised if they have two teams at tournaments, too.

Pyles's focus here is whether PSU can break their own record at NCAAs. In his analysis, he goes over who he thinks will be at each weight class.
