NCAA Pick-Em Contest 2013

  • Westie101
    So I ran this last year and it ended up going quite well, so I guess I will do it again. Brackets will be released tomorrow, Same rules as last year: You get a team of ten wrestlers. You get to pick a #1 seed through #8 seed to join your team, then pick two wrestlers lower than the #8 seed (Meaning 9-12 or US). Your team will then score points for you in accordance with the actual tournament scoring. I can keep track of it and will be able to post the team scores at the end of each round. Just post your team and I will consider you entered.
    Ex: Last years winning team 125- Nicholas Megaludis (PSU)
    133-(2) Logan Stieber (OSU)
    141-(5)Hunter Stieber (OSU)
    149-(8) Eric Grajales (MICH)
    157-(7) Dylan Alton (PSU)
    165-(1) David Taylor (PSU)
    174-(3)Nick Amuchastegui (STAN)
    184-(6)Quentin Wright (PSU)
    197-Alfonso Hernandez (WYO)
    285-(4) Zachery Rey (LEHIGH)

    If there is going to be a tie breaker, it should be by picking highest place/most points scored by an unseeded wrestler.
    I'll take Josh Demas -OSU 157 pounds.

    If it's Ohio AA's you better define what qualifies as an Ohio guy...and I'll say 9.
