Short Time Shots: 11-05-19
It’s Tuesday, so that means all the rankings in the world are now available in Division I wrestling. Flowrestling, Trackwrestling, AWN, WIN, The Open Mat, InterMat, the society for the reintroduction of feral cats and Nipsey Russell’s House of Hustle have all released their college rankings. They come out Monday or Tuesday, you know where to go for them, so I won’t bog down the show with notes about them here. I will say, I do despise tournament rankings being used for dual meet promotion. You wrestle duals, use dual meet rankings. Several of them are also out there – pick one. Starting off the show with a rant rather than a rub, this is Short Time Shots, a mostly daily look at the scores and more from around the world of wrestling. I’m Jason Bryant.
Limited night in duals, so we’ll just throw out what we’ve got before it gets too late and my kids wake back up. My wife’s still in China, which means I’m still in survival mode. I love my kids, but you really do lose all sense of personal time when you’re watching them solo. Tonight, it was the Little Mermaid Live. Under the Sea, take it from me … there’s some messed up lyrics in Disney films.
Minnesota Beer of the Night: And you know the NCAA Division I Championships are coming to Minneapolis this year. So with that in mind, when relevant, I’ll give you my Minnesota beer of the night. Tonight, it’s Pixel Bot, a New England IPA that’s 7.6% ABV, but a smooth 11 IBUs. If you don’t know what that means, it means its not bitter and has a bit of a kick. It’s by Tin Whiskers Brewing Company in St. Paul.
Dual Meets:
It was a men’s-women’s Division III doubleheader in Naperville, Illinois on Tuesday night as North Central College picked up a pair of wins over MacMurray College. On the women’s side, the Cardinals won the first dual meet in school history with a 27-21 win. Of the seven matches contested, North Central won six. On the men’s side, North Central used four forfeits to win comfortably 47-6. In Little Rock, Division II Ouachita Baptist won a pair of duals, first topping host Arkansas Baptist, an NJCAA school, 40-6, then beating NAIA Central Baptist 36-17. Arkansas Baptist upended Central Baptist 24-14. That’s the extent of Tuesday’s scores. PROMO CODE WARNING:

From the DWN:
The first NWCA Division I Coaches Poll of the regular season was released on Tuesday, with the only real movement happening as a result of Virginia Tech’s 29-10 win over Missouri. The Hokies jumped up five spots to No. 11, while Missouri slid four spots from No. 9 to No. 13. The NJCAA rankings came out and Western Wyoming comes in as the No. 1 team to start the year. The Mustangs are followed by NIACC, Clackamas, Harper and Ellsworth. Expect traditional powers Northeastern Oklahoma A&M and Iowa Central to creep up there as the season moves on. Johnson & Wales swept the New England Wrestling Association awards this week as Gabriel McDaniel was named Wrestler of the Week, while Hayden Brown was Rookie of the Week. Both won titles at the Ithaca Invitational – McDaniel at 141, Brown at 133. McDaniel was also named com Wrestler of the Week as well. The Air Force Academy’s Randy Meneweather was named Co-Big 12 Wrestler of the Week after winning the Cowboy Open going 5-0 with four falls at 165 pounds in the Elite Division. He shares the award with Fresno State’s Jacob Wright, who went 3-0 in duals in San Diego, which is Spanish … nevermind. Virginia Tech’s B.C. “I’m seriously named after a headache powder” LaPrade was named ACC Wrestler of the Week. He wrestled at New Kent in Virginia, which is in my home district, the Bay Rivers. One time, I was walking into a dual at Tabb High School a few days before the Virginia Duals. B.C.’s dad comes up to me and goes “Didn’t I meet you in Fargo?” I said you have to be more specific. He said “It was at the Turf.” I say again, sir, you have to be more specific. Turf reference #2 this year. Ohio State’s Luke Pletcher and Purdue’s Kendall Coleman were Big Ten Co-Wrestlers of the Week. Both won the Michigan State Open. Pletcher’s title included a win over No. 1...

Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens | Full audiobook | Part 1
Please sir, I want some more, the famous line spoken by Oliver Twist at age nine, becomes the tipping point of a huge change in Oliver's life. He is soon captured into the service of Fagin and his gang of pick-pocketing boys. But, Mr. Brownlow saves him from arrest, and for the first time in his young life Oliver finds comfort and caring. Unfortunately, he is recaptured into the seedy and disgusting world he had escaped, and meets with Bill Sykes, a dangerous criminal. There are numerous delightful or wicked characters that carry the story along, such as the Artful Dodger-- a boy of the streets under Fagin, Mr. Bumble the Beadle, looking for ways to get rid of Oliver, Nancy who makes a fateful betrayal, and the Maylies, whose affection Oliver craves. The author's descriptions of the back street life in London, bring us full force into the crushing poverty and the terrible way in which poor people were treated during that time. Charles Dickens wrote Oliver Twist as a serial in 1837, and it is considered one of the most popular in English literature. - Summary by Mil Nicholson
