He had a really good interview on True Wrestling before his senior year where he talked about his 5 final schools & one of those was actually Clarion because of how much he liked the head coach who was the first to contact him when it became permissible. That is why Pat needs to engage with sophomores as it is a different ballgame.

agree however that we must get these stud local kids & there are plenty of them vs spending time flying all over the country to convince kids from midwest etc to come to Lehigh.
Not legal until summer after sophomore year.

>>>>>>Reply to Oracles and others:

Recruiting the Lehigh Valley is good

Recruiting Pa/NJ ( incl Lehigh Valley) is better

Recruiting nationally ( incl PA/NJ/LV) is best

All of the top programs recruit nationally——- with emphasis on the home state as they are all state schools ( incl cu)

ACC schools ( except Pitt) must recruit nationally as their home stats are not hs powerhouses.

Lehigh always has some LV and nearby PA/NJ kids on the roster——some excel and some don’t. Hopefully Crookham and others will stay healthy and excel.

Lastly——— raise significant funds for NIL and watch recruiting improve.

So many Bechi & D11 studs Lehigh should get but Cael came in last year and scooped up Tyler Kasak. Let's hope it's not too late for Kollin Rath or Collin Gaj from Quakertown.

Virginia Tech got a great one in Sonny Sasso from Nazareth.

Agree. Kasak would have fit nicely at 149.

Quite an interesting phrase: 'hind tit' noun. vulgar slang. the worst or least valuable part; that left over after the best is taken or apportioned.

Tell that to our best five wrestlers this year, three were Top 5, none from D-11. Kutler, Rey, Hamlin? Nope

Completely acceptable phrase. Not like like referring to a place with very high Incest and child bride rates as Bumf##k, Kentucky.

Princeton picked up Holden Garcia at 172 lbs. from Notre Dame Green Pond and Dagen Condomitti from Northampton, 152 lbs. has committed to Oregon State.

Will be interesting to see where Sean Kinney goes. 2x 285 lb. champ from Nazareth.
