NCAA automatic bids up for grabs at the ILT:
125: 2 Tricky and depends on seeding. If he faces anyone but McGowan before the final, Diakomihalis is capable of getting there through Motyka or Bah.
133: 2 Ferrara shouldn't have an issue but will get an at-large anyway.
141: 3 Ditto re: Cornella.
149: 3 Ditto re: Joy
157: 4 Ditto re: Shapiro.
165: 3 Rogers is going to be the 6 seed out of 6. I don't see a path.
174: 2 See above, re: ditto, re: Ruiz.
184: 1 Not out of reach for Cerchio to beat Columbia's Curtis but I wouldn't assume it. Hansen was winning when he got injured. EDIT: Columbia's Ayzerov returned from injury and replaced Curtis in their ILT lineup. This is a tougher opponent for Cerchio imo and I'm much less optimistic now.
197: 1 Brown's Reall is good. I don't see this happening given Hanning's year.
285: 2 Davis has beaten both Semenenko and Mueller in the past. Doable, but this hasn't been his year. He'll only need to beat one of them to reach the final.
