"A lot of fire, a lot of energy." 🔥⚡ @Pitt_WRES transfer Eugene Harney is ready to make an impact at 149. After beating Kal Miller in the Blue-Gold Match, he has his sights set on earning the starting spot. My latest for @PantherLair: 247sports.com/college/pittsb… #H2P

The U.S. goes 2-for-2 in men's freestyle on Day 1 at #SeniorWorlds, as @BoBassett06 and @Snyder_man45 each qualify for Friday's finals.

What do you think of Magomedov's challenge against Bassett? Up 12-8, it gave him a short break but also cost him the decisive point in what ended up being a 14-13 loss.

In reality, I think Bo wins it either way, as he outscored Magomedov 10-1 over the final 2 1/2 minutes without the challenge point.

Another youngster wins for @Pitt_WRES, as Bode Marlow beats Dylan Evans - who won two matches at NCAAs last year 4-1 in SV at 174. Evans is up two weight classes from March. #H2P

Freshman Santino Sloboda beats returning NCAA qualifier Tyler Chappell 3-2 in TB-2 in 125-pound bout at @Pitt_WRES's Blue-Gold Match. Not much scoring, but great scrambles, with the freshman winning the only one to result in a reversal, 8:45 into the match.

Smart investment.
We at RUDIS gave Bo Bassett a six figure deal at 14. Had 2027 circled for his first Senior World Team, LA 2028 for gold and a shoe deal to follow 💪🏿 Today he beat Real Woods to make his first Senior World Team a year early. Apparently nobody told Bo to wait 👏🏿

Johnstown-area native @BoBassett06 takes the first match in a best-of-3 series with Real Woods, 8-4. Bassett dominated the action and is now one win away from making the U.S. Senior World Team.
