Mick vs. Ryan Jack (NCSU) coming up next on mat 13. That's a matchup we could eventually see several times at 149.

Pletcher had an entertaining match but drops a close one to eirerman in the senior division

Lledo is 3-1 with a pin and a tech fall, I swear this is the most fascinating guy on the team. Always aggressive, loves to go upper body and throw, pins a lot and gets pinned a lot. Rocking the honey badger hair today, too.

One thing to note is that he wrestled 184 and 197 last year, but he is at 79kg (174lb) for this tournament. I wonder if, having missed on McNally, the plan is for Lledo to compete with McGill there. I think he's for sure a guy that the staff wants to be a multi-year starter. Might have to wait one more year though

Burnett finishes 3-2. Both losses were close as can be, one was a tie (freestyle is weird) and one was a one-point loss where he finished a shot right at the buzzer, could have gone either way. I don't know anything about the guys he wrestled, aside from Jack.
