AA 160 seeds:
1 – Thayne Lawrence, SW-1, Frazier, 21-0 – 2x state champ, defending champ, #4
2 – Andrew Cerniglia, SE-1, NDGP, 42-1 – state champ, #5
College commits: Lawrence (Lehigh), Cerniglia (Navy), Rothrock (Brown)
State Champ vs. State Champ! Cerniglia has been dominant against a tougher schedule (only loss by 1 pt to Gallagher). But Lawrence has also been very good, and has always found a way to win at states. The deciding factor might be Lawrence’s injuries – but he won states last year with 1 arm.
I've gone back-and-forth on this pick a lot.
Winner will get OW. Deservedly.
Prediction:
1 – Cerniglia
2 – Lawrence
Best high school athlete in the state or in the country?Gaige Garcia: 3 matches, 3 first-period pins.
I liked his style he looked aggressive at regionals. Just a freshman right

Imo bad call on a takedown in sv in the flank/knisely match. Awful way to end match with state finals on the line.
I didn't see it but that sucks if that's the case. Bad calls are always magnified when so much is on the line. But I went to Ridge and graduated with Kniselys mom so I was really hoping he would get that gold. Slightly off topic but I also graduated with Cassidy's (Bedford 138lb) mom.Imo bad call on a takedown in sv in the flank/knisely match. Awful way to end match with state finals on the line.

It was an iffy call. The pulled headgear was not. He doesn't do that, he wins in regulation.Did you see the takedown in question?
I couldn't see the headgear pull on the Facebook live feed I was watching. Was hoping to have two finalists to come see tomorrow.It was an iffy call. The pulled headgear was not. He doesn't do that, he wins in regulation.
Is Pat Berzonski still helping out with the Ridge team? He kinda got the shaft at Township awhile back. Real shame too.I went to ridge too. Teach their now. Feel bad for Duane great kid a real shame to lose on a real and I mean real shaky takedown.
What year? 94 for me.I went to ridge too. Teach their now. Feel bad for Duane great kid a real shame to lose on a real and I mean real shaky takedown.
Wow I didn't see that coming. Thought southern would have been in itYes.
Montoursville having a great tournament. In 2nd place, only 4 pts behind NDGP. Both teams have 5 wrestlers alive. Montoursville has 3 finalists (106, 182, 220), NDGP has 2 (126, 160).

You guys are "young" pups. Early 80s Ridge had some good wrestlers. Corle's, Holderbaum's, Paul Davis was a great one.
I know many Burketts and Weyandts. It's as common as Smith and Miller in those parts.Both my stepsons went to Ridge as well as my kids for a couple years. That would have been around 1998-2002. Great school.....the wrestling team is better now Sucks the way Knisely lost......Burkett lost minutes later..... Lots of lightweights named Burkett at Ridge and Claysburg. Lots of Weyandts too
I remember wrestling a Burkett from Claysburg. Early 80s. Extremely tough.Both my stepsons went to Ridge as well as my kids for a couple years. That would have been around 1998-2002.

Barnes is in the 3rd place match tomorrow vs. Duvall.How did Barnes from southern Columbia do at 152
Thanks JefeBarnes is in the 3rd place match tomorrow vs. Duvall.
Southern is in 3rd. They had a number of early upset losses and looked dead in the water after Biscoe got bounced early, but they've stormed back in consis.
Current:
1 - NDGP, 98.0, 2 finalists, 3 in consis
2 - Montoursville, 90.0, 3, 2
3 - Southerm, 88.5, 1, 4
4 - Reynolds, 77.5, 2, 3
What a Grade A idiotic thing to say. As if the schools choose where the kids go to college. And as if the wrestling team should be rooted against for the choices of the football players. (Speaking of which, you forgot Wisconsin and Michigan State.)Southern Columbia sends their best to Michigan and Ohio State. I'll pull for the other schools.
Don't mess with the Claar's and Musselman's.Both my stepsons went to Ridge as well as my kids for a couple years. That would have been around 1998-2002.

Psst... In case you didn't notice, idiotic posts seem to be common with DD.
No kidding there. You'll have at least half of Claysburg after you. Any time I ventured into that neck of the woods, I made friends with as many of them as possible.Don't mess with the Claar's and Musselman's.
Wow! Thanks for highlighting this kid Sportfan. I just watched his matches. He is tough and relentless in his attacks. I was thinking he couldn't possibly "push off and shoot" for a leg but he reaches with his hands and snags the ankles and finishes efficiently. He made the semis and will now get a medal. Good for him!!!Not certain if anyone has posted ...but Deven Jackson of West Perry is wrestling for 3rd place tomorrow at 106 lbs in AA. Deven has no legs below the knee. His knee pads keep flying off and he keeps sliding backwards on those pads.....but he keeps winning. He wasn't ranked in the top 5 but he just defeated Evan Maag of Notre Dame 3-2 on a last second escape. To me.....unbelievable with no feet/legs for leverage. Most impressive. Damned inspiring
I wrote the book on being idiotic, but he makes me look like a rookie.@PAgeologist
Idiotic is being kind. I pushed back because someone else liked that drivel.
