Just thought I'd mention what a great host Ohio was. Tournament was the most packed I've ever been to. Hopefully it will be back before to long. Parking pretty easy. Lots of walkable places to kill time between sessions. Security lines bearable (still too slow, but much better than some other venues) and a casino right across the street!!!
Team race was tremendous and added to the atmosphere.
Tough one for the Bucks, but a tip of the cap to a great team. I'm a PSU fan, but remarked to my SO that it's hard rooting against many of the Ohio State wrestlers who seem like great kids. Tomasello, Pletcher, Bo Jordan, Martin, Snyder all among my favorite wrestlers.
Looking to the foreseeable future as a PSU fan, there may be other teams that challenge (and maybe win) occasionally, but I really only see one team that concerns me and that is Ohio State. Great staff, great facilities, great support, great recruiters. I'd expect this battle is going to go on as long as the primary players stay in place (and maybe longer) and you guys will win your share. Great class coming in and likely more to come.

CLEVELAND, Ohio – Not many
of the 19,776 people jammed into Quicken
Loans Arena on Saturday night, March 17,
went away disappointed after a sizzling final
session wrapped up three action-packed days
of wrestling before 113,743 fans – which,
along with the finals crowd, broke tournament
attendance records set in St. Louis in 2015.

Kind words. Cleveland has come a long way and so has Ohio State Wrestling.
