If McD wins and Molinaro beats Dake the Hawks will be runners up, not bad considering it was a major rebuilding year and how they fared at Midlands in late December. They are no worse then 3rd as Oklahoma St can't catch them either.

Maybe it's our own faults for getting greedy.. but this team proved a lot this year, a rebuilding year.

With additions and wrestlers back from injury, we should be expected to be at the top with Penn State next year, no? Cornell graduating a lot of their core?

We have become so accustomed to success that at times this weekend I felt as though we were underachieving. In reality, Marion, St. John, and GG all wrestled above their seeding. Luke right at his seeding and McD still has a chance to wrestle above his. If only Ramos and Raising could have found a way get a few more wins we were right there in a year most everyone did not give us a shot.

PSU wrestled a great tournament. It seems in previous years teams tended to fold, opening up the door for us. Cornell did it for PSU this year. I think even though PSU and OkSt will also be very strong, we have as good shot as anyone next year.
