2016 D-1 nationals...... S'cuse me if I've already said this recently, but......

There isn't any question this is the most exciting and engaging wrestling tournament every year -- it's what everyone aims for, looks forward to, kills themselves in practice for, endures injuries, ugly workouts, self-deprivation, and -- well, sidelining everything else in your life as you try to all american (obviously, being a national champ is the loftiest goal, but realistically, there's a limited group of guys capable of attaining that -- in some weight classes, maybe 4-5 guys have the potential, in others 1-2, in others just one -- rare, but pretty much at least one per year); so, being top 8, all american, is attainable to anyone pretty much in the top 20, and if and when, depends on how on you are, and what happens in your bracket.
