Great choice of college, wish him all the best of luck (except against us of course)

Appears that PSU was more involved with Phillippi than I realized, or had been reported. An interesting article, with a lot of quotes from Phillippi, in the Indiana Gazette, which can be accessed at THIS LINK.

Virginia is doing a good job of raiding Pa.

Phillippi was named as 1 of the 2 Westmoreland Tribune-Review Athletes of the Year. You can read about it at THIS LINK.

From the article:

The Virginia wrestling program has had an influx of Westmoreland County wrestlers. What are your thoughts?

It's going to be cool to be on a team that I know a lot of the wrestlers: Sam Krivus, Jake Shaffer, Dom Scalise and Cam Coy. Penn State was one of my top choices, I felt more at home at Virginia. I can go to a school and get a shot to compete early.

You're memory is incredible. I know you do your best in keeping down "clutter" with unneeded new threads but over a year? I'm impressed. Lol
