But both shoulders were clearly down. But obviously not nearly as long as Dean Heil's were against Gulibon.

Ungar is a NJ transfer, Gibson is a PA kid who has done nothing other than capture our attention for all the right reasons.
Meh. Over the years the Hershey crowd has shown its appreciation for such transfers whether or not they actually moved into PA. Especially when they win a strong bracket.
Well, yes. Housenick is very good but ultimately the Lehigh Valley reporter, so his headline is gonna have the local slant.
Related: one of those two wrestlers is going to Rutgers, the other to NC State. Shouldn't take much to figure out which is which.
Crebs will wrestle for Kolat at Navy next year. Finch is headed to Pitt.
Also of note: Montoursville finished 2nd with only 3 wrestlers at states. Had Brandon Wentzel successfully defended his 106 title (he took 3rd), they would've won the team title. With 3 guys.
Higley will wrestle at George Mason next year. Haines is uncommitted in the Class of 2022. (If we don't land Bouzakis, a Bartlett-Van Ness-Haines stretch would be awfully good.)

Possibly the strongest bracket. Hats off to Unger, he wrestled a perfect match. Looked like Gibson was pressing early and may have just had too much artificial pressure weighing on him. Just want to throw my support to him, nothing more.
In the article it says Steen turned down a guaranteed scholarship at sPitt for a chance to earn one at PSU.....
I've been told for years.....that was a myth.
From Sullivan County, PA -- total population 6,428
Sullivan County Jr/Sr High School -- 283 students in grades 7-12
Good small-town story, and good column in the link.

Yeah, 106 Williams (Kaedyn) wins, and 113 Williams (Kamdyn) shows forfeit
Injury? Failed to make weight?
Don't know
Freshman Luke Simcox advances with a 5-2 win; will face Kasak in the semifinals at 126
Thanks.
Interesting that @oldcougar65 noted that he thought the 106 brother was sucking too much weight; he makes it and "big" brother doesn't. Too bad.
Seems apparent we'll see these guys at higher weight classes next year and beyond.
Just witnessed one of the worst stall fests I've ever seen in the Kilkeary semi. Can't believe the official let Jacaruso get away with that. One of the most blatant lung timeouts I've ever seen. Backed out of bounds 10 times. Coaches buying him time arguing a stall call. Took off his headgear to adjust his mask underneath. Wild. If there was a real crowd, that official would have gotten tarred and feathered.
Watched Kilkeary’s opponent back pedal, fake injury, have his coaches argue with the ref to get the kid a lunger.....all in the third period, and only one stall call.
Everybody knew this would happen when the mask rule was announced.
PIAA should've had a staple gun at the scorer's desk.
Shindledecker and Mac Church win their semifinal matches and will have a rematch of their Super-Regional bout in the 120 finals.
Haven't watched a ton of high school wrestling the past year or so. I forgot how bad these officials are. Guy just let Chappell hand onto a leg for the last 45 seconds of the match. They have no situational awareness. Almost makes me appreciate Angel Rivera.
The usual Hershey officiating routine is to allow the most blatant stalling, and then give a token call with 5 sec left when there's no chance of it having any effect.
