He'll win it again when he beats Massa February 12th  

Congrats Zeke!

I wonder how Vincenzo feels about this award.  After all, he's the one who wrestled the great match - until he didn't.  Outfoxed by the wily veteran.

I wonder if Jordan has a prayer against Imar at Big 10s.  I'd say his style gives him the best shot of anybody; I wasn't buying into  Massa's chances against a guy as strong as Imar.

I thought the best accomplishment last weekend was Sal Profaci of Michigan upsetting Randy Cruz of Lehigh.
