trust me io have seen this kid wrestle and my brother has wrestled him, he doesnt have to showcase moves when he is a step above everyone else in his state. it is hard to say he would be teched by perry when he has a fargo national championship under his belt, his strength is also unreal! stop hating on the kid, hes a stud for sure.
if you win a state title obviously you have skill and if the 3/4 is the move he mastered im sure he will catch some people in college with it he is one of the tougher kids who have came up through new-york
these kids arent weak he just hits the move on everyone. No one would tech him and complatanno would probably get pinned . he has the ability to pin anyone with this move . if u try it yourself its hard to do . Not only is meys strong he has great technique and i doubt complatanno would take him down he is destroying kids just with 1 move and you act like thats all he has. as for chris perry he may take austin down but he also could get pinned . I've wrestled top kids in the nation at heavier weights like orlando scales the #1 ranked 215 i nthe country and i have to say meys is the best kid i have ever wrestled.
I'm a coach at a local hs and known Meys for a long time. This dude is strong. I wrestled him 1.5 weeks before states and I weight 20 more pounds and just tossed me around. This kid's strength is for real. I'm not saying that he will overpower everyone in college and he would do this to an Okie State kid. Some of you guys that post need to realize he is ranked in the Top 10 in the nation for a reason and he is wrestling for Lehigh next year on a scholarship for a reason. His cradle is tough, his 3/4 nelson is tough, the shots he actually do are tough.
Hey Zack, HAHA, and the rest of you ignorant wrestling fans who type complete nonsense on this site. That 3/4 nelson that Meys relies on isn't going to work at the next level. It shouldn't even work at the HS level. Muscling kids to their back like that in the state tournament is a joke. The kid that Meys decked in the finals (and his coaches) should be ashamed. They must have known that Meys was going to excusively try that 3/4 garbage on him, and he still gets rolled. Anyone who thinks that Meys could do that to Campolattano (a sophmore) is delusional. And anyone who thinks that NY is superior to NJ is crazy as well. There are reputable and unbiased wrestling publications that rank the top wrestling states in the country. NJ is ALWAYS ranked higher than NY. Normally only behind PA and OH. One state champion in NJ- enough said. None of this multiple division crap.
why don't we all have respect for our fellow wrestlers and let time speak for it
self. i'm sure many questions will be answered in the years ahead. let's wish
them all well and hope one of them brings home the gold like former niskayuna
ny great jeff blatnick did.
You can hear a coach wanting Austin to crush his opponent's throat, and Austin does exactly that. So Austin's trademark finish is a three quarters nelson with a dangerously crushing squeeze to the wrestler's on the receiving end larynx. The opponent gets relief from the feeling; he is going to die, soon after he flops on his back like a fish. If he does not give up then, a little more squeezing and crushing . Is this a Jutsu So finishing move with shade?
none of you dont know one thing on what your saying. anonymous coward shut your ass up. NY wrestling will wreck the out of nj or all those other states you said. austin meyers way better than you think and everyone else thinks. stop talking your everyone cuz you dont know NY at all. let us be and do our own thing
compaltonno lost to the kid from ny over the summer when he got hurt haha he was heavier . Oh and the kid in the finals beat boley junior national champ yeap he sucks . who cares about the comp he would beat complatanno
ok meys pinned matt loew that got 2nd at soph nationals he would have beaten boley that had won junior nationals beating piro on the way to the finals. you watch these matches thinking all he does is a 3/4 . with just 1 move he had beat everyone in the tournament i have wrestled him and i have wrestled top kids in the country and he would definetely beat camplatanno or mancuso or whoever is at pa or wherever .
he might not even place in NJ states this year. He surely wouldnt beat Campolotano, Becker, or Mancuso. Odds are he wouldnt beat George, Newman or White either. Maybe a 7/8th place
The top 3 from Illinois would major him definitely... i would love to see Gonzalez wrestle him. Jeezus Crist how many pins do you see in a state finals. people say new york is a wrestling powerhouse they need to step it up a few notches to ever compete with IL, Pa, NJ, and OHIO
meys is a great wrestler but i would have to say perry from oklahoma would major him, not taking anything thing away from meys, perry is just that good. you want to see good technician watch perrys reno finals were he wins ow or his state finals match. kid is a freak! But with meys going to leheigh and perry to osu im sure they ll meet up to put all these questions to rest. good luck to both of them.
meys has the ability to pin any of them perry , camp, or whoever . Ben krakower isnt even that good. yeah he pins every 1 with his 3/4 but the kid is strong but its his technique how he hits the moves what angles hes really good and i think hes def top in the country. I mean maybe ed ruth can give him a run but that 3/4 could catch anyone.
D'BRICKASHAW FERGUSON said: ""thats a choke" (coach 1:45). but seriously that looked MMA a lil bit but still one of the sickest 75 cent i ever seen"
Waddya talkin 'bout mon? :) His arm isn't even touching the front of the throat. Meys has a 3/4 on. It seems to be a fav of high school kids these days.
Obviously a good wrestler....however, he will not be able to run through college wrestlers this way....Hopefully his mind frame is right...and he will adapt to having to wrestle tough for 7 mins.
Yo whined, "Yea right. If he has technique I havn't seen it. Looks like he just uses strength. Grabs the guys arm like a , pulls the head down then tries the 3/4. Looks slow on his feet, doubt he has an resemblence of a shot."
Austin Meys is a:
3 time NYS champ
Repeat champ this year
Undefeated for last 2 years: that means he won every trny he entered!
NYS Trny Most Outstanding Wrestler for 2 years in a row! --> An amazing accomplishment!!!
National Champ 2 years ago
You don't accomplish all that without having more than a few moves. If he tries one move at the start of the match, and it works, he doesn't need any more. And with only needing 3:36 on the mat for 4 matches just how many moves could he fit in?
You wear your jealousy like a tattoo. Give the guy the credit he deserves.
He is arguably the best wrestler to "ever" come out of New York. Ever!
...sounds like someone is jealous. Or got decked by Mr. Meys.
Pat Santoro has a good history of evaluating talent. I doubt Santoro would have gone after Meys if he didn't feel there was a lot to work with. I suppose time will tell.

“BONER!!! 1:53”
lol
just b a great match to c
gable.
NJ lay down.
enchantment at the sea dance , MEYS WOULD WIN.
some bush league 3/4 nelson should not let u waltz through the state tourny.
bush league my friends, bush league
the force.
because their both former gold medal winners in B.S.
one of the greatest freestyle wrestlers ever.
self. i'm sure many questions will be answered in the years ahead. let's wish
them all well and hope one of them brings home the gold like former niskayuna
ny great jeff blatnick did.
“this kid would get crushed by campolotano.”
is destroying people already and most likely will do very well.
know. Try Jeff Blatnick gold medal winner.

Why not? If it works... you use it. He's going to Leheigh. And don't worry, he's got plenty more plus he's an excellent technician.
