Flo also has a preview of the MSU Open including a list of all registered wrestlers. The list of competitors was not available on track wrestling as of this morning but should be soon I would think. Essentially everyone on the Buckeyes roster is registered other than those expected to participate in the North Carolina duel.

Not that it means a lot but the more I see of this recruiting class on film, the more I understand how good these guys are. I can't speak to the Ohio guys as I haven't watched them in a while but Mendez, Bouzakis and Feldman are obvious studs.

Mendez in particular has all the tools to become a bonus point machine. Can score in a ton of different ways and likes to go for the kill.

I'm glad the Buckeyes got Mendez but I will never understand how rankings work at Flowrestling.
Swiderski beat Mendez and is ranked #1 at 138, and #17 pound for pound. Mendez is ranked #2 at 138 and #2 pound for pound. I hope the weight class ranking is wrong and the pound for pound is right. Maybe Flo thinks the previous match was a fluke?

The weight class ranking is a reflection of results whereas the recruiting class rankings are a reflection of perceived potential.

I see what you mean, Brian. One ranking predicts the future, while the other ranking predicts the past.
I finally watched the match myself. It looked like a completely legitimate match. Swiderski won two takedowns to one, and was in on several more.

Jordan and Romero were both Round of 12 last year. Romero was NWCA AA the Covid Year.

Romero was also fighting through an ankle/foot injury as I recall. And, he ended up getting scrwd when Massa was upset early in tourney. If he ended up against anyone besides Massa in the bloodround, he probably wins and AA's again.
