We've had lots of good contests and Deano ran a good one for DII. I'm starting a totally different one for DI but I hope you other guys will start yours as we have done in the past.

Rules: Pick the top 3 placers in each weight class, in order. If one of your picks finishes in the place you assigned to him you get 5 points. 2 correct places=20 points. All 3 correct=50 pts.

Name the Outstanding Wrestler=50 pts.

Gorrarian Award=50 pts. (Most falls in least amount of time.) I don't know if they count defaults and DQs so in our contest we will only count falls.

Brackets should be out Monday or Tuesday. Entries close at 12:00 AM CDT on March 19.

Good Luck

Dear Everybody,
That nice Mr. TK was kind enough to explain the difference between seeds and seats for me. Now I know that seeds are the ones who are going to win so it's a sure thing. And Henry, may he rest in peace, always said if there is a sure thing, then go for it.
Love, Auntie Mame

Nobody picked the Outstanding Wrestler (Caldwell, North Carolina St) and Red Sox was the lone picker of Taylor, Maryland for Gorrian Award (3 falls in 5:38)

Tied for first in that one too! I am on a roll this year! This contest was hard because of all of the unforseen upsets at certain weights. Honestly, who could have forseen Bubba Jenkins going two and toast here? Mack Lewnes? Jay Borschel not even placing? Wow, what a great tournament.
