Crash 138 Report post Posted December 28, 2019 1/2/20 is the last day to register for the Ranking series event in Rome in mid January. I assume USAW knows by now, or will know very, very soon, who we are sending. I also assume the guys who go to Rome will not go to the Yargin and the end of January. Has anyone seen/heard any announcements from any of the guys that they are going to Rome? The only one I saw was that JO said he was going to one of the two but did know which one yet. He said that in his interview after winning the OTT qualifier event. Any other guys comment? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

de4856 359 Report post Posted December 29, 2019 I believe SnyderMan said that he is going. And this is a ranking event, so I have to expect we will send a lot of our number one guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crash 138 Report post Posted January 3, 2020 If any mods from USAW read this thread, I have a respectful suggestion to offer. We just need a list of those registered. The deadline has passed. A press release can wait. Can we just get a list for now? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 2 1 jon, Peso and Jon_Kozak reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crash 138 Report post Posted January 3, 2020 The program for Rome shows that they are holding competition for non-Olympic weights. Does this imply there definitely will be a Worlds later this year for these weights? I don't see it on the UWW schedule. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet Nolf isn’t totally healthy, or he would have been at Seniors not too long ago. Pellicone might be a safer opportunity to get the rust out and get back into it but he didn’t try for a top 5 finish at Sr Nationals which I think is telling about his recovery. I hope he’s close to 100% though and will be cheering for him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He needs to shake off the rust before OTT. Rome is obviously the best option if he’s healthy, but Yarygin would be a good tournament as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But hey... If he does well, then it would be a giant confidence boost related to his injury recovery. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At Yarygin he can get some experience against high level competition before OTTs. Nothing to lose except possible injury. OTTs may or may not be harder, but there’s far more on the line. I also think Yarygin will be less competitive overall this year because of how close it is to the Rome ranking event.

Might be a good event for him to get Senior level competition.Most top guys will be in Rome during the Grand Prix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
