U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM TRIALS

[HFO]

6 of 6 FS Olympians east of Mississippi.
5 of 6 from Cortland, NY to MD.
Recruiting? No real need to go anywhere from VA to NY and get the elite multi-year state champs.
Only other two places to stick your nose into are Cleveland area with St.Edwards and St. Ignatius and then the Chicagoland powerhouse of Marmion Academy and Montini Catholic and Oak Park/River Forest HS.

LVWC and Lehigh need to get more aggressive in recruiting elite athletes to the Lehigh Valley. The contentment of Lehigh University across the board for average academic programs, average placement at NCAA at #15 should not cut it. It has become the pervasive attitude of the last two college Presidents at Lehigh. Very unfortunate.

Kerry needs to up his game at LVWC. It was a horrible showing in the premier year of a 3 year cycle of training.

This interview had to be extremely tough for KYLE DAKE who has been training at the Penn State NLWC. He defeats his team-mate in the Finals who has been there to support him, amongst others,.. during these difficult times.

Quite a number of Penn State-Penn State matches or NLWC-NLWC or PA-PA matches. Hagerstown, MD just across the border from Gettysburg, PA and Cortland, NY just about 30 mile across border from Athens, PA. A pretty concentrated area from where all the Olympians are from in wrestling sans Parris who is from a western suburb of Indianapolis, IN and a nice town Brownsburg, IN.

U.S.A. still has to QUALIFY 57K/65K in Turkey.

Appears Ramos will represent the Philippines, and a rematch with Spencer Lee is pending.
