Bronco 231 Report post Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Late last month a poster here indicated that Nick Suriano - if he does compete collegiately next season - will be at Arizona State. Since he's not going to be involved in the Olympic Trials has there been any update on whether or not he will, IN FACT, be a member of the 2022 Arizona State wrestling team? And if so at which weight class? As I understood it he was trying to qualify for the Olympic trials at 57 kgs (125 lbs) and of course ASU has 2021 NCAA runner-up Brandon Courtney at 125 lbs as a Senior next season. And at 133 lbs ASU has Michael McGee who placed 6th at 133 lbs at the 2021 NCAA championships. McGee will also be a Senior next season. If Suriano is added to the mix does that mean McGee moves up to 141 lbs? He just moved up from 125 lbs a year ago up to 133 lbs this past season. Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts on how this might all shake out if Suriano is IN FACT going to be on the ASU team for next season.

gobraves101905 138 Report post Posted April 20, 2021 If Suriano joins the mix at ASU, their lower weights are loaded. Courtney and McGee already there. Parco coming in. Figs coming in. Great room to be in for those guys. I think you would see Courtney at 125. Suriano at 133 and McGee and Parco at 141. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea , I think Goodale did an interview early in the season saying Nick had 1 semester left to graduate and hadn’t decided was he was going to do, so I would imagine if he decides to wrestle one more year it would have to be as a graduate transfer 1 Plasmodium reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Housebuye 2,419 Report post Posted April 20, 2021 Pat Mineo, who I’m not a huge fan of but does have injections with Suriano’s family, said he is considering ASU for next year. Sounds like it is actually potentially going to happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dman115 513 Report post Posted April 20, 2021 Doesn't ASU seem like the team that always get's mentioned to have a top 5 but never lives up to expectations? Just seems like it to me. Same almost could be said about Michigan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was an AA at 149 lbs this last season. I don't see him going back down to 141 lbs again. 125 - Courtney 133 - Suriano or McGee (depends on IF Suriano does in fact join ASU) 141 - McGee IF Suriano is at 133 lbs or Chlebove or another transfer 149 - Parco & Vasquez 157 - Teemer 165 - Valencia 174 - Munoz 184 - ???? 197 - Norfleet 285 - Schultz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congrat's on their 4th place finish THIS year. How did they place the previous 6 years (don't let the FACTS get in the way of your ignorance)? It just seems they always underperform...usually they have reason's...injuries, transfers, etc. Just seems that every year there are huge expectations for for whatever reason they fall short of those.

People remember things not quite living up to expectations under McFarland, but Bormet has done a good job creating sustainability. That RTC has really become an invaluable resource. If they do in fact land Griffith and/or Dean they are going to stay at or near the top, with a bunch of momentum moving forward. If only MSU had 1/2 the resources and support............
