Wyatt Sheets is wrestling in the Cliff Keen Journeyman Classic now. It is on Flo but I have been unable to find brackets for the event. He did win his first match 5-2.
Wyatt Sheets
- Thread starter oberebo
- Start date
As I said there are no brackets posted on flo or USA wrestling that I have found. I have not seen any other wrestlers with Oklahoma ties but there are wrestlers from all over the world there including Russia and Korea.
I really do not know what happened at this tournament. Only watched it off and on and during a match between Diakhomalis and a Russian the Russians disagreed with a call and walked out and Flo now says the tournament is over. Only saw Sheets one time and can find no results. This whole tournament is a mystery to me.
I was looking for it earlier on Track and couldn't find any info. Whike I was looking for it I ran across the Oklahoma FS/GR team trials. I was wondering why Sheets wasn't there.

Sheets won his pool, went 3-0 in his RR including 11-3 win over verkleeren, then defeated Gissander from the other pool 10-5 to win 152A bracket.
I agree. He looks very strong. He does give up his legs a lot but has great balance and strength and he manages to use these assets to compensate and counter many leg attacks. He will be a great addition to our team. Verkleeren is a cadet world champ in August of 2015.
He earned FLO wrestler of the week.

just rewatched his match against Gisandanner in the finals which showed his great strength and balance. Gissandanner is a two time New York champion. The two lifts at the end of this match punctuate his great strength and determination.
I thought that one move on Gisandanner in the second period was something that works in collegiate style, but costs you points by virtue of rolling through on your back. Not so sure that a mental lapse (or just wrestling different rules) did not make the match appear closer than it was. For a dominant rider to be so effective at freestyle is impressive. My thoughts is that he is a better recruit than previously ranked.
