Great match. Best mat returns of any Championship match I’ve ever seen

[@JHank-yb4jv]

Is Marion one of the best college wrestlers not to win an NCAA title? What do you think?

[@jomama969]

Jaydin Eierman comes to mind as well

[@dangerpowers4582]

Dan Dennis and Michael Poeta also come to mind.

@@dangerpowers4582 especially when Dennis was less than 20 seconds away from a ring and got put on his back

@@jomama969 Yeah, that was heartbreaking. Dennis actually never won a state title either, which is mind-blowing.

If Marian tell didn’t give the escape in the second I think he would’ve won for sure 😔. Denied twice, by Kyle Dake then Kellen Russell

There both went out of bounds on Marion's takedown, probably would have gotten over turned, had there been a challenge. In my opinion at least
