57kg Finals - Jax Forrest vs Nathan Tomasello | Last Chance Olympic Team Trials Qualifier

[@israeldent]

This is the most IMPRESSIVE UPSET I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! I love this kid and I can’t get enough of him

[@detectiveMM]

Imagine if every wrestler had this most guts and style. The sport would be 10 times as popular.

[@Wouldst]

the college world is not ready for this beast wow

[@scourge8097]

He may not even be the best HS Wrestler...at his weight. That's...AMAZING to say. The kids now are just...different. This kid is special though and I'd probably bet on him being the top kid from his class! Not saying anything one way or the other about him, just how insanely talented these HS kids are now. Specialization. I don't love it, but it's paying dividends for the elite of the elite.

[@jacobmathew666]

@@scourge8097hs kids are different now. Forest also won the Edinburough college open last year as a freshman. His hs teammate Bo Basset (also a sophomore) teched NCAA champ Anthony Ashnault and earlier in the season won the Clarion College Open. Edinborough and Clarion are both D1 tournaments with guys from Big 10, Big 12, etc

Literally unbelievable....

[@dylandempsey]

What else can you say 😧

[@connortolley40]

This blows my mind. The level between high school and college is crazy but then from high school to a national champ is even more insane. And to see this literally kid that’s not even close to physically developed just tech a natty champ is insane.

[@lclement04]

I don’t think his body will change that much. He might not look as “physically developed” but I assure you he’s strong. I predict he stays very similar body size from now til the end of his career.

[@EF5TORNADOSIMP]

@@lclement04 Bruh I know he is freakishly strong now but that isn't how the human body works. He is going to gain more muscle as he ages, that is pretty much a guaruntee. He can try to stay at the same weight by cutting, but to say his body is done changing as a high schooler is nigh impossible.

Wow hats off to the wrestlers that continue to surprise us! Specifically Jax here

[@K2NOPS]

When you have 15 years of footage and your game hasnt changed one bit... it opens the door for a young underdog you overlooked to dismantle you. Kudos to Jax's camp for preparing him so well and to him on whipping a legend.

[@giacalonebuilding4443]

Wow. What a stud how impressive. Insanity. I remember summer of 2007 I was a HS sophomore and went to Minnesota and had some gos with Mack Reiter and just the levels between great high school and great college wrestling is such a gap. This is so impressive

[@freedomrings4134]

Man, he schooled him. Complete clinic. Impessive.

These kids are not stalling with Tie ups underhooks like most college athletes. They are going for it with complete commitment in their attempts. This is the difference with these highschool kids beating these college Atheletes. The young kids are not just beating them they are dominant. You see it within the NCAA tourney too.

[@stephenmoist623]

Unreal. PSU room

[@joshuat7171]

He made that look easy. Impressive!

[@ProfessorB.]

That was very impressive, but I keep thinking that they have changed the rules to make it so much easier to score these days. When I used to wrestle many years ago, a takedown was 1 point, a roll 2 points (and two points against you if you rolled over your own back - which they don't care about anymore) and a high amplitude throw was 3 points. Now a simple takedown is 2, and they have 4 and, I believe, 5 point moves. The first move here, for which he was given 4 points would have been only 2 back in my day. With these new scoring rules you will see a lot more scoring but also more upsets and quick matches like this. A wrestler can make a couple of mistakes and it's over. Makes it more exciting to watch, but maybe they should find a middle ground, like not awarding more than 3 points for any move. I can't wait to watch the Olympics to see how it plays out.

[@daricklapaglia4337]

agreed. i think going back to the best 2 out of 3 periods system would make the matches more competitive.

[@woodyharrelson2624]

That boy is fast !

[@Vincentovich89]

Jax a better prospect than Mesenbrink, O'Toole, Shapiro, Haines, Lilledahl, Basset, Knox, you name it. What a prospect. Just wow. Imagine him hitting the weight room. 4x NCAA to be sure.
