There are four bids here at 197 lbs, and these are my guesses as to who will get in.
Andy Smith Virginia Tech |
The one I'm most sure about here, is Andy Smith of Virginia Tech. The Hokie was 5th at the Midlands & has both a 4-2 decision over Max Shaw of North Carolina & a 2:21 fall over Cole Urbas of Penn.
Evan Bockman Utah Valley |
Another I'm pretty confident about is Evan Bockman of Utah Valley. Already a two time NCAA DI qualifier, Bockman has 18 wins on the season. A 7-2 victory over SOCON champ Levi Hopkins of Campbell & a 4-2 decision over Wyatt Voelker of Northern Iowa.
Logan Deacetis Bucknell |
6th at the Southern Scuffle & 20 wins on the season, I believe one of our At Large Bids will be Logan Deacetis of Bucknell.
John Crawford Franklin & Marshall |
The long illustrious history of Franklin & Marshall, I'm not sure if a Diplomat has ever been selected for an at large/wildcard bid before. I don't know that for sure, but in my 30+ years of watching wrestling, I can't remember anyone from F&M getting into the DI tournament via at large/wildcard selection. I do think though, that 22 wins on the season, John Crawford could be one of them this year.
