pioneer_pride 1 Report post Posted March 17, 2009 I heard Ruschell got a 5 seed and didn't hear anything about Starks yet. Can someone post any information about their draws here? NCAA tournament links are blocked at my work unfortunately. Just curious if Ruschell & Starks got decent draws or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrestling Dad 99 Report post Posted March 17, 2009 I double checked - Starks is not on the bracket, which means he must have withdrawn from the tournament. Sorry to hear this, however this is not a tournament you can wrestle in with a bad knee injury. Sorry to hear this.Ruschell is the #5 seed. If he wins a couple of matches he would hit Palmer of Ohio State in the quarterfinals. Palmer has handled Kyle in the past. If he does get past those matches, you can head to the consolations...there is Brent Metcalf of Iowa in the semis. I know there is no such thing as "unbeatable", but Brent is the most dominant wrestler in the tournament. No one will be more highly favored to win his weight class than this guy...he is a physical monster. We'll see him in a few years wrestling at the next level.Sorry to hear about Richard Starks, he had a very good year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Palmer has handled Kyle in the past.Kyle's also beaten him before I think last year at a qualifier for the olympics I think. So hopefully he can pull it off this year.
