Friday Morning at The NCAA's

Friday morning at the NCAA's can be brutal.The good news - we still have 3 guys left to wrestle Friday night! The bad news, we lost some along the way.

Congratulations to 157 Alex Elder, who picked up two victories this morning, the second by fall! Alex is grinding his way through the consolation bracket, keep up the good work, Alex!

Both 174 Joe Latham and 184 Taylor Meeks will join Alex in the consolation brackets tonight. Joe and Taylor both lost their matches in the quarter finals in the morning. As long as they keep winning, they can end up as high as third.

125 Ronnie Bresser III (listed in the tournament as Ronnie Rios), won his first match in the consolations, but then lost the next. Cody Crawford had a similar result. Ronnie and Cody have both been eliminated, but scored some points for the team before they exited.
