Since Husky Hockey is a lost cause now I will bring up Husky Wrestling. Every bit as dominant as Penn State wrestling in their division 2. 4 titles and one runner up in the last 5 years. 4titles and 4 runners up in the last ten. Started the season ranked #2 because the rankers were tired of ranking them #1. So they beat that #1 ranked Pitt Johnstown team 31-6 to start the season and ranked #1 again.

And I thought Division 1 wrestling talk was exciting.

The Gophers are doing nothing without Gable so switching to a winner.

Maybe start a different thread for them instead of hijacking a thread?

Doesn't need a new thread. It took a year and a half to get this one to 3 pages. Talk any wrestling from Gophers to WWE in here if you want to.

So this means Gable is reinstated? Gophers can sure use him, but with him we are at best about 10th in the nation. Don't know if the Gophers will ever recapture our greatness when most of our best HS wrestlers are going to Penn State and winning multiple national championships for them.

With Steveson reinstated Gophers moved up from 14th in the tournament rankings to 7th.

Minnesota loses to Michigan 22-15 as Steveson doesn't wrestle and our substitute gets pinned by #2 ranked Hwt Mason Paris. I would really like to know why Steveson wasn't wrestling this match.

Well last years season was cut short with no title declared. Steveson hasn't lost a match since two 1 point losses his freshman year. Here's some video of a recent match.

MN outside of Stevenson is the JV compared to Iowa....they are stacked. Heard the Gophers had 1 takedown all match. That is dominate.

Steveson. Only one N in the name. Yes we are middle of the pack big10. OSU, Iowa and others superior.

Steveson finally gets his NCAA championship. Lost by one point his freshman year. Last year championships cancelled by COVID. He dominated it this year. He gave up one takedown on the season and his closest match was 8-4 in the NCAA finals.

The Hodge Trophy wrestling's version of the Heisman had co winners. Spencer Lee three time national champ at 125 from Iowa and Gable Steveson at 285 from Minnesota. Both wrestlers so dominant that sharing the award was the right decision.

Gable is one win at the US Olympic Trials away from being America's Hvywt rep. He beat fellow Minnesotan Greg Kerkvliet 11-0 in the Semifinals

And he's only 20 years old.
