ConnorsDad 359 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 21 hours ago, Gantry said: Yeah I'd redshirt him as well, especially since he can't be that big for heavy. Myers has starting experience and qualified for nationals, may not be a world beater but is solid enough. Absolutely. Needs to bulk up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HokieFan 86 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 17 hours ago, Housebuye said: Hunter Bolen is at 197?! Mitch Moore winning is a good thing, but I was hoping he would be more dominant. I see him taking some lumps and then we will really get to see how good he is at the end of the season (assuming he doesn't red shirt, but rumor is he isn't) Prata was really good in high school, but he has wrestled a couple of college matches total due to injury. Either he has really improved or VT is in trouble at 125. I had high hopes for Norstrem. Hope this is just an early season/familiarity thing. Yeah Bolen looked big but I think the plan is for him to redshirt and take over at 184 next year. Although if he keeps growing who knows. I think we see Mitch Moore in the lineup from the start. His brother is injured and word is he's out for the season. Hopefully he can get the year back since he's already used a redshirt. But either way, the Moore's should be manning 141 and 149 next year. Kinda sucks for Latona. He definitely took one for the team his true freshman year but the Myers transfer makes him the odd man out. Word is that Prata was even with Norstrem last year before the injury so I'm not sure how that situation will play out. Norstrem is in the open division at the Hokie Open and Prata is in the freshman/sophomore division. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norstrem is in the open division at the Hokie Open and Prata is in the freshman/sophomore division. Thank you. this is really helpful. I guess the Mitch Moore decision makes sense. Assuming his brother is actually out for the season (as has been mentioned all over the place for the last couple of months) ,their best chance at a medical is making sure he doesn't wrestle any matches and that is the expectation all year long. Sucks for Mitch. He is damn good, but he is very unlikely to AA this year and I was hoping he could use is as a development year. I'm sure he will end up on the podium at some point. I had no idea Prata was even with Norstrem last year. Good to know. I assumed Norstrem was the starter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't do wrestle offs per se. The coaches get an idea from practice and then the early opens like the Daktronics help settle lineup questions. 165 and 197 seem like the biggest questions, at least in my mind.
