Beau and SVN had at least one, and I think two, incredible matches at prep nationals. Flo has at least one of them.

I like old school Aaron Brooks matches. We didn’t see him much because he wasn’t a top prep school kid or in the PIAA. He’s so smooth.

Nolf very aggressive and tough, especially in the 2nd period.

The match that put Nolf on the map.

The time David Taylor bumped up to take out #1 Collin Palmer, in High School.

The wrestling GOAT that started a dynasty, at Penn State.

Nick was a great h.s. wrestler. So sad to lose him at such a young age. His coach was old hs football teammate of mine.

I was in attendance that day. Bittersweet watching it now. Nicky was a good wrestler.

An oldie but a goodie, of Cael.

Let's not forget Ant'ny

Somerset County needs to get a bigger mat!

Berzonski is now at CR, he’s done some good work with their upper weights. Pat was real close with Roberts throughout his life, very sad.

Yeah real sad. Wished CT didn't give Pat a raw deal and think their program suffered because of it. Chestnut Ridge got a good coach and an even better person to help their kids.

Casey Cunningham vs Jamarr Billman, you can see where our guys being tough on top comes from.

Nick Lee vs Kanen Storr

 

[NittanyLion84]

Way too fast for High Schoolers as well. Kind of funny, his opponent took top, in the 3rd and RBY laid there like a slug, getting multiple stall calls. Explains why he always took neutral, as a freshman, he has improved immensely, on bottom during his time at Penn State - some guy named Zain might have something to do with that.
