>>>>>> I’m monitoring the the news and hoping no one commits hari Kari. Enjoyed a nice steak dinner and Christmas choir from local high school at our club tonight——— life is good and Lehigh wrestling is just one sliver of it. I would also like to see a higher level of recruiting——— nation wide as we...

>>>>>>A local kid who selects Laf over Lehigh for football is meaningless for wrestling.

He may be a great wrestling talent, but it appears he has no interest in wrestling in college given his Laf choice.

Time to move on and focus on kids that want to wrestle in college.

>>>>>>>> I was glad to read about Crookham’s NIL deal with Hotel Bethlehem.

No reason the NIL activity can’t be increased now——— why wait for the admins to do something?

>>>>>> The potential redshirt frosh are allowed 5 dual opportunities——-really doesn’t make sense to use one of those 5 vs psu whereas Repos vs Pitt did make sense in my book.

I think we’ll see Stanich/Repos/Schoppe in a few duals next semester.

It’s a long season——enjoy the ride.

>>>>>>>Logan wrestled a guy who is going to make most opponents look bad. psu has that level of talent at many weights——-as evidenced at the recent all star event. Interesting that Cael does it without the theatrics and verbosity of some coaches. With respect to lineup adjustments———- seems to me Sa...

>>>>>> Good one spladie.

Next you’ll post that Vito losing to Crookham wasn’t an eye opener.

Maybe you thought Foca would go 1-2 and lose by major dec to Columbia, but the seeding committee had him #3.

>>>>>>>ACC only wrestling programs are full conference members ——-UNC, NCSt, UVa, VaTech, Pitt, Duke. Stanford will join next year. I doubt the ACC would be receptive as they do not need add’l teams for their tourney to meet NCAA qualifier status. In addition, the ACC will implode when their ESPN gr...

>>>>>>>Correction to my post: Stanford placed 7th and OregonSt placed 5th—— which was also a nice showing for the beavers.

UNC did not send a full contingent to CLK, but only one placewinner is indicative of the work Koll needs to do to elevate that program.

>>>>>>>The tourney had eight EIWA teams and they did not collectively distinguish themselves with only 9 placewinners. Plenty of time for improvement, but conference depth looking thin when 5 programs (Col, Harvard, Hofstra, LIU & SH) have no placewinners. cu led the pack at 6th place with two 2...

>>>>>>>NCAA qualifier slots won’t be diminished as qualifier spots are earned by individual wrestlers based on season performance with at least one spot at each weight for the champ. The split will result in double the number of automatic qualifier champs and even weak weights will earn a qualifier.
