Not good with nicknames and acronyms. Worked for IBM and swore off using both when I retired. If you know IBM.....you'd understand...thanks

I didn't work for them, but worked with them many times. They certainly were big on acronyms. No biggie.

Berge!! Interesting to note that he's wearing regular headgear and not the ones specifically designed to reduce head injuries.

Well, Meredith is not the starter, and was facing the #3 ranked wrestler, so him getting ridden wasn't a surprise. Negron isn't one of the stronger starters in the lineup, and Robert Kanniard is long and effective at using legs. Negron nearly got the reversal when he got the leg, but lost it while trying to free his own leg. It it what it is.
…. And Beau???

I know Cael and the staff are above reproach, but Beau should have taken neutral in the 3 rd period, up 3-2 with a minute riding time. Van Brill has no leg attacks to speak of and Beau’s defense is pretty good! What do people think?
He was losing 3-2 but had a minute ofRT

Ridge Riley award winner is Aaron Brooks.

His interview:

He says JP is super strong, and he kept reminding himself to stay on him. He knew he was flexible. He was working with Coach Cunningham yesterday on what JP did when on the mat.

Talk about the next couple of weekends, team and individually
- this is the best part of the season in my opinion. Getting ready for Michigan, then MSU, then Iowa. Sticking to our skill set, and areas of attack. Super proud of Max Dean today. Rec Hall, you can't match that.

Talk about Brady Berge
- God's will; God's plan. We know how great a wrestler he is. Unfortunate that the had the head injury and the knee injury. Edsell, I love to death. Even as a backup in previous years, he did everything right. Whoever it is, we're going to support them. This is a blessed opportunity for Brady.

How are you (AB) feeling at this stage in the season
- this is fun for me. Big Ten season right into the tournament. I get super excited to come out here in Rec Hall to do what I can do. I can't help but smile and keep working hard

Working this week?
- tomorrow is a recovery day. I try to keep a routine. I mix things a bit. Recovering, tubs, that kind of stuff

Talk about Amine
- Miles ia great opponent. That gets you out of bed and smiling. An Olympic bronze medalist. He's a really great guy to wrestle.

Thanks for the PBP. Bulsak a better scrambler than I remember. Brady looked solid. If he ever figures out how to avoid the stalemates, he could bonus more kids.
