PA HS Wrestling thread

Is there an inside joke about Mike Evans and lacrosse?
Evans was the SC Regional champ and clear favorite to win states as a JR, but didn't get to go to Hershey. Cumberland Valley suspended him from school for pooping in a lacrosse player's helmet. The next year he transferred to Blair.

Suspended in high school, eh? No wonder he was drawn to Tom Brands as a mentor

willies got a recruit by the name of jack Kelly from NJ (197) on his college commitments. SIAP, but @El-Jefe you seem to be on the high school scene, more so in PA it seems, but didn’t know if you had any knowledge other than looking at the tracks history

I wasn't aware of him, but he is committed to PSU. Looks like a quality depth guy ... though you never know, he is further along than our last NJ 195.

He is coached by Bryan Heller who wrestled at Penn State. I seem to remember Heller pinning T-Shirt in a dual his senior year.

Good under-the-radar pickup for Pop. Hohman was 4th at PA AAA 113 this year. From Penn Trafford near Pittsburgh. 2022.

Recruiting question from back in the day a bit... did David Carr ever post a Top-5, before choosing Ames & Dresser? Anybody got a link, even to a bwi comment that lists them? tia!

We weren’t in his top 5, unfortunately

Cornell, Oklahoma State, Ohio State, Iowa State, and Nebraska.




He has to realize now though that Happy Valley was his true destiny, and the final step in complete world domination 😀

I’m curious how much having Nolf, then Berge lined up played into that.

Nolf not a hindrance. Carr was HS 2018, so he could've shirted during Jason's SR year.

Berge ... not as clear but doubt Carr viewed Berge as an obstacle. Coaches might not have prioritized Carr given Berge's big-time credentials. Berge's concussion came after Carr enrolled at Iowa State.

Also, Lock Haven did not make the finalist list despite family on the coaching staff.

Tbh Berge prolly played a big factor.. he was the #6 p4p recruit and his time line fits in around Carr’s... as u stated, can’t predict injuries.
 
Mitch was a little off, Weiss was U15 not Cadet. Basset absolutely dominated a stud Freshman from Utah who is greco savvy. Watch the Kaedyn Williams best of 3. If all greco wrestlers went after it like that, Id pay to watch it. Them boys went at it!!!
