Current PSU Recruits & Commits news
- Thread starter Ruby Tues
- Start date
.His opponent is from Lakewood St. Edward, so he is at least tested against better competition.
Asher Cunningham is so good. I think he will be a national contender at PSU. He teched Hutcherson 15-0 but then went and teched Bode Marlow 18-0. He dominated Marlow.
These kids dads must know something about development.
Yeah, just dreaming of a Nelson Brands late bloomer thing here.
He's got to get in the lineup, though, with Sealey, Ryder, Heckel, and Barr in his way.
Henkel is on just as much of a TEAR, have him and AC ever wrestled?
Why Marcus Blaze is the P4P #1 in America
The fact whe beat “Nico” says it all 😊
yes. This year’s ironman finals. It is on youtube if you want to check it out. great match
Ironman finals in Dec. Henckel won 15-12 SV. Cunningham got out to a 7-0 lead but hit the wall.
Cunningham has a ton of college potential.
The problem for him, aside from direct lineup competitiom: he can be too reliant on scrambling. He's awfully good at it, but that should be secondary to good shots and clean finishes.
But every incoming freshman has things to work on. Glad he'll be on our team.
I don't think any high school wrestler has ever put together a list of defeated opponents that matches Blaze's. I mean Jimmy Carr beat like 1 former NCAA champ at Midlands when he was a junior in high school. How many did Kolat beat when he was at a similar age?

@SlipperyPete12 lets us down almost as much as Cael. Both should be on the chopping block
Board already lining up @SlipperyPete12's successor.
“Can’t pbp into third period.”
Perry F 1:01, up 9-2 at the time.
Did SlipperyPete not make weight today?
Asher TF 17-2, 1:40.
Gets Beca returning state placer Shane McFillin in the quarters.

I had never seen either of these great prospects wrestle until I watched this. Wow! What a match! Henckel has a gas tank....plus. We have some real studs coming in. I know we have a log jam of talent, but it will all sort it self out and we obviously have a bright future ahead.
I got pulled away by a neighbor & just got back. Here's Dalton...

Next victims:
Herring: quarters vs. NE-2 Matthew Almedina (Mid-Valley JR, 44-9). They've never met, but the common opponents comparison is heavily in Herring's favor. Expect bonus.
Perry: quarters vs. SC-2 Ian Longenberger (Boiling Springs JR, 43-7). They've never met. Common opponent results are fairly similar. Perry should win, and probably win comfortably, but might not run away with this one.
Cunningham: quarters vs. NE-3 Shane McFillin (Bethlehem Catholic SR, 41-9). McFillin placed S4 last year and is headed to Bucknell. Again, they've never met. Comparables in their first 2 years leaned toward McFillin; in the past 2 years, toward Cunningham. Asher has more offense, and should win comfortably.
