Weighing In, Episode 6: No. 1 seeds fall, sectional finals preview & more tourney talk

The NJSIAA state tournament is trudging forward and, in just a few days, teams will be wrestling for state championships at Jersey Mike’s Arena at Rutgers.

And it’s time to break it all down on Weighing In.

On this week’s episode, NJ.com’s four wrestling reporters — Ryan Patti, Joe Zedalis, Bill Evans and Jake Aferiat — recap the first two rounds of the public tournament, which included a handful of No. 1 teams falling in dramatic fashion.

The crew also looks ahead to Wednesday’s public sectional finals, the non-public brackets and offer picks for the teams that will reach the team finals at Rutgers on Sunday.
