<p>Let's get some predictions on scores on this weeks clash at Kings Point.</p>
<p>Coming off a great trip to Florida where the #21 USMMA beat #15 Cornell College 20-18.</p>
<p>The USMMA return home to face the Coast Guard 1-10-2008 (Wednesday) at 7:00 PM</p>
<p>My prediction is USMMA 26 - Coast Guard 12</p>
<p>Sorry I see that the 10th is a Thursday. Also see on the Academy website that the match will be webcast. If interested you will be able to watch the action this Thursday.</p>
<p>Hey. That's great. I'm really glad they are doing this.
And especially thankful that someone brought it up in the forum. I'd have missed it.
Thanks for sharing the info!</p>
<p>Go Mariners!</p>
<p>I don't know how the team will do against Coast Guard. But if they continue to recruit like they have the last two years they are going to start scaring some Division I teams.</p>

<p>They beat their 1st D-I team this year when they beat Princeton 33-19.</p>
<p>They wrestle Rutgers and Army next Sunday at West Point.</p>
<p>Hi folks,</p>
<p>My son is a nominee hoping to receive an appointment for the class of 2012. We will be going to the wrestling match thursday night, and he will do an overnight visit. Looking forward to touring the campus, taking in the academy experience and seeing Coach Alger's wrestlers do battle against a rival academy.</p>
<p>Good luck to your son. Just give us a shout if you have any questions. The majority of folks on this board will give you good advise and try to address any concerns that may come up :)</p>
<p>It will be a great time to be up there. I'll be there!</p>
<p>Men's Wrestling NewsWrestling Moves Up Three Spots In National Poll</p>

<p>The wrestling team moved up three spots to 18th in the latest national poll released by the NWCA earlier today.
The United States Merchant Marine Academy wrestling team moved up three spots to 18th in the latest national poll released by the National Wrestling Coaches Association earlier today. Furthermore, Eric Vincent ranks 10th in the country at 197 pounds.</p>
<p>USMMA most recently won three dual meets in Florida on Dec. 30. The team defeated John Carroll, now ranked 22nd nationally, by a count of 34-13. After delivering a 41-5 blow to Case Western, the Mariners edged then-No. 15 Cornell by a score of 20-18.</p>
<p>The Mariners will be back in action on Thursday when they host Coast Guard at the James Liebertz Gymnasium. The dual match slated for 7 p.m. is also scheduled to be web cast for fans who can't make it to Kings Point.</p>
<p>Kings Point really needs a win for a morale booster in the rivalry, after losing in both football and basketball this year to USCGA.</p>

<p>Maybe it's just my system.... but I'm getting NO SOUND?!?</p>
<p>Is anyone else experiencing this problem? (If not, thanks Mr Gates)</p>
<p>No sound here. I thought it was me.</p>
<p>SAY WHATT???? (Ohhhh. that is SUCH a <em>BAD</em> joke). I am deeply ashamed. ;)</p>
<p>Nope. No sound. Hope it sounds better than it looks. The white team (USCGA?) seemed to be dominating...at least at the beginning. Mind you though, I know NOTHING about wrestling!</p>
<p>no sound either......and I don't have a clue what I'm watching....or how points are awarded! ugh and KP is in white I think, because the guy just walked over and drank from where the USMMA sweatshirts are :)</p>
<p>Really? Good news if we are in white! Wow suzanneegra, you have good eyes. I'm trying to find my son in the audience........there he is, no, there he is, no that's him............hahahahahaha........oh what the heck, I love them all. Can't get enough of 'em.</p>
<p>lol... I know what you mean :) Yes they are def in white and even though I don't know a thing about the sport sure looks like we are kicking some Coastie rear end!!!</p>
<p>Yes. Yes. I saw BOTH of your sons. Sitting next to mine. you know, the young man with short hair. See 'em! :D:D:D:D:D</p>
<p>I wish I could tell the score. But it was a domination by the 18th ranked USMMA team tonight.</p>
<p>Looking forward to watching my son wrestle there in the coming years.</p>
<p>Go Mariners</p>
