Quarters are Set

/

Penn State leads as expected, but Ohio State and Oklahoma State are showing signs of life. With 141 & 174 being as tumultuous as expected in the pre-season, the Buckeyes could sneak a couple guys in and end up with 5 in the semis like they did last year. The Cowboys have won some close matches, and show point potential if the Nitany Lions falter in the next couple rounds. Penn State takes a small lead with 27 points in to Friday. Ohio State and Oklahoma State trail with 24 and 22 respectively. 

More upsets were all over the place. Check out the results of the round of 16 here. 

125: You had to feel for Joey Dance as he bent over in disappointment while Terao celebrated after pulling the huge upset over the 2 seed. Megaludis also struggled, but the three remaining to beat to get to the finals are an unseeded Youtsey and the 10 & 15 seeds.
