Can Chance Marsteller Make it to the 165 lb. Finals?

[Marcus Cisero 340]

Does the 4-time undefeated HS state champ / 2019 EWL OW have a chance at making it to the finals? One point OT losses to Cenzo and Shields and a win over Chandler Rogers plus family, friends and former HS coaches making the 3 1/2 hour journey from Central PA to Pittsburgh to sit in the stands to cheer their guy on may very well give him the edge he needs to survive until the finals.  

Does Chance have a chance? I say he does.

IMO, He absolutely has a chance, and I would love to see him show up in a huge way at NCAAs. 

[Molsen 123]

Yes, he is definitely good enough to beat anyone in the field.

Yes, he has a good shot but he needs to get a good draw in the bracket and wrestle the tournament of his life.

[russelscout 1,573]

Can he? Yes.

I personally don't think he will. 1-12 in this bracket are tough as nails. I wouldn't pick him to beat any of the big ten guys. Which may be my bias talking because I just watched the entire Big10 tourney  this weekend. Thats nothing personal against him, this is just a super tough weight at the top. 

I do think he can beat each guy. I just can't picture him going on a run like that.

[VakAttack 2,589]

OMG, there's two of them.

[Jimmy Cinnabon 218]

How does he match up with Marinelli?

[Marcus Cisero 340]

Honestly, not too well in my opinion, however, Marsteller could give him a run for his money if he can somehow recapture the level of confidence he possessed in High School.

[vsnej 190]

That would be a helluva story - rooting for him

[qc8223 327]

I wonder if Marsteller can get to his underhook against Marinelli. If he can, that takes away all of Marinelli's offense and creates opportunities for Chance.

What about the confidence of being a returning 4th placer when no one expected him to do that.

4th NCAA'S > than undefeated state champ

[Perry 1,175]

It would be cool to see! Wasnt he controlling wick in the 3rd place match last year before getting cradled? He is the real deal, just needs to put it all together and 165 is no joke this season

[BigTimeFan 947]

I would love to see that level of redemption for Chance.

Marstellar is excellent but when your schedule keeps you from top guys all season, it usually hurts when you get to NCAA's.  See Mizzou , Cornell and Okie State in recent years as examples.  Heck look at Iowa at Big Tens this year.  Not wrestling Mich, tOSU and PSU showed.

Bull vs Chance= immovable object meets unstoppable force?

[Ogalthorpe Haywood 313]

I think we’ll see him against the bull in the semis, I have him either 4-5 seed 

[tightwaist 388]

Marinelli is a tough match up for him.  

[WillieBoy 713]

He has as good a chance as any of the other top guys to get beat for the Title by Joseph.

[PSUMike 440]

Can he? Sure

Will he? I doubt it. 

165 is a shark tank and there are too many tough matches for him to get through completely unscathed.
