PA Wrestling news

Changes likely coming to PA state tournaments:
1. State duals going from AA-AAA to 4 classes.
2. Individual states remaining AA-AAA.
3. AAA is not consolidating to 4 regionals as was previously rumored.
4. At individual states: all regionals qualify minimum 3.
5. All remaining qualifiers allocated based upon past years' performances at states by underclassmen.
All of this passed by the PIAA Wrestling Committee. Will be voted upon by full PIAA Board next month.

Any truth to the privates having their own state dual championship. That would get rid of a lot of issues. Then take the remaining teams and go A,AA,AAA
That isn't how I read it. Considering we are only a couple weeks removed from the head of the PIAA (Lombardi) saying the whining from the public school basketball programs is nothing short of sour grapes I doubt he has suddenly seen the light.
If somebody from Aliquippa were to give the PIAA committee members one of those NIL bags of cash, Lombardi wouldn't even blush while changing his answer in less time than required to fill out his deposit slip.
How true is this. The PIAA is definitely not for the kids. That’s for sure.
Profit and dollars. Our HS football championships are going to be at a high school because they don’t want to pay money for facilities.
Maybe PIAA would be willing to pay facilities fees if the titles game outdrew Pitt football.
That looks like a typical Pitt crowd.Maybe PIAA would be willing to pay facilities fees if the titles game outdrew Pitt football.
I have a theory that while it seems like a logical thing to do to have football and soccer in Hershey, they should be play 2 games in Pittsburgh/West, 2 in Philly/East and 2 in Central PA and rotate. They make D7 go to D6 and D11 in basketball in 1/2/3 round playoff games. There are people traveling more this weekend for travel soccer and baseball than asking someone to do this. The Highmark Stadium for low class games would be awesome and would draw casual fans. Asking Erie Prep or Thomas Jefferson to go to Philly suburbs in a rotation is not a big ask when they are already going to Hershey. Now for wrestling, I change nothing.Maybe PIAA would be willing to pay facilities fees if the titles game outdrew Pitt football.
Get Ready for this:
was looking at Results on FLO, just this weekend look at how many events call themselves worlds or nationals.
Reno Worlds
Adidas Nationals
Viper Pit Nationals
Spartan Nationals
Journeymen World Classic

Larry did not have any part in this transfer. I have it on good authority
Hell, as soon as Spencer finishes up next year Lock Haven should offer Larry a big wig administrative position in charge of the well being of other program's wrestlers and NIL cash bags.
Swisher tf over Harer, thought Jude would win but crushed him.
gibson tf Bradley but then defaulted to Kennedy from Montoursville. Little Milheim looked great and beat three tough kids. Pepe is a different beast.
Lots of great wrestling in the area today.

Nice, they can stop in State College on the way back . . .

You don’t like tough cannibalism!
They will use this in their appeal to the Big10 to not have to travel to PSU. "Why do we have to travel to PA twice in the same year? That just isn't fair!"
lol can they even remember the last time they had to come to Penn State???
Congrats to Willie.
Also says a lot about the strength of Lehigh Valley wrestling, that a Power 5 football head coach didn't make the headlines.

It's the Nittaan Death March.When the Brands look for Penn State on a map, they see this:
Props to Lou Rosselli for his hard work in the transfer portal. Henson has a wicked high ceiling and Nijenhuis a solid NQ level guy.
Honestly ok with both those rules being shot down. Four classifications for team states is crazy
I would be all for four classes at TEAM states, but first they need to separate public and private, thats where the true problem lies.
This slipped my mind. Heard this week at Buffalo Valley practice that Faith academy got another set of brothers in from out of state and two other wrestlers toured the school. AA might not be the easy out anymore.
God only knows who NDGP has lined up from NJ coming in. Only good thing I heard was varret from Mcort left and went back to Dover PA. Might end up on Faiths roster soon
