Re: Week-End Salvo: Special Early East Coast Edition

Easy HFO! Simmer down now..... NCAA team championship with only (mostly) D11 recruits? I think not. You say elite recruits will come the more Lehigh wins.....the only problem with this statement, and it's significant, is Lehigh needs elite talent to win more. Chicken or the egg. And yes, Iowa has b...

PARIS OLYMPICS

Been scouting the competition via the various UWW qualifying venues/tournaments, but especially enjoyed the vigor/fervor of the 2023 World Chapionships at 65KG, which might very well be the toughest weight-class in Paris. Was surprised by the performance of former Rutgers star, Sebastian Rivera who ...

Re: Transfer portal

For the sake of discussion, why not Kasak take his redshirt year, Bartlett returns for his final season (since Starocci and Kirkvliet have already announced they are coming back) and Van Ness and Kasak split 141-149 the next year. Of course, Penn State will continue to bring in top talent in the me...

Re: Transfer portal

TYLER KASAK not a Free-Agent yet but he might be the ODD man out in Penn State's MURDERER'S-ROW next year with the return of VanNess. Unless he believes he can beat him, or Bartlett at 141. :roll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeO4h5WFL98 BECCA graduate probably had Lehigh on his short-list prior ...

Re: BOBBY WEAVER

Trying to think of what OTHER former Lehigh wrestlers tested-the-waters Internationally. Former Coach Gerry Leeman won a SILVER in London, and a few other old-timers I believe medaled. Mark Liebermann I recall was pretty successful, but had the Peterson Bros. of Iowa State, and Chris Campbell of Iow...

BOBBY WEAVER

Speaking of OLYMPICS got me thinking of Lehigh's only Olympic Champion BOBBY WEAVER! :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGYrnlRBKOM Followed him closely at Easton where he was a 3X State Champ, and at Lehigh where he was an under-sized 2X ALL-AMERICAN AT 118LBS. Unfortunately legend "Mean-Gene&...
