[quote Rich S]Is Rinaldi still on the team?  His younger brother is another potential state champion in NJ for Lodi.  Tournament started this weekend.[/quote]
Jerry Rinaldi is still on the team and currently the #3 ranked wrestler in the country at 197. As a junior he made it to the NCAA finals at that weight.

Were Frey and Nickerson just resting up, or out with injuries?[/quote]

I don't know but, based on circumstantial evidence, I'd say that Frey has an injury and Nickerson was being rested.

In Frey's last match, against Penn last week, he was pinned by the #1 wrestler in the country. He was then held out of the evening match against Princeton and yesterday's match against Harvard, which led off the contest. In his substitute matches, Nick Bridge won by forfeit against Princeton and pinned his opponent from Harvard.

As for Nickerson, 125 was the last weight class to wrestle yesterday. By the time Nickerson would have taken the mat, Cornell had an insurmountable lead. Based on the match result (22-5), Rodriguez was much better than the Harvard wrestler anyway.

I don't think Frey or Nickerson even made the trip to New England.

Rinaldi, by the way, won a 15-0 technical fall in the first period today against the kid from Brown.
