I've looked back to the post I made Wednesday night. I thought maybe, at the late night hour, perhaps I in some way slighted the skills of Nick Flynn!

Nick is a fantastic wrestler that comes from an outstanding family! My intentions were to suggest, that Nick had "all aspects" of wrestling within his toolbox! Nick won the match, 15-0 with a pair of takedowns and a bunch of near falls!

To me, that shows a well-rounded skill set. A wrestler that wins a match 20-5 where he wrestles predominantly on his feet shows a different set. Now, that is not to say that in a 6-minute match, we get to see the entire toolbox of a wrestler. We only get to see the tools that are displayed!

Now, I do feel, that the ability to ride and turn will pay-off at the collegiate level!

We saw a few examples of the ability to ride and turn (or at least to work for the turn). Collin Hase, Phillip Henes, Nick Flynn, and Phil Witt showed that they have these abilities!
