Looks like Lilledahl got a pin in the second round against a kid from Malvern Prep who is pretty good.
Asher won his 2nd round match 9-0.
Rode his guy for 27 minutes and turned him a few times. Wonder where he learned that?

Sealey up 21-7 in 2nd and gets the fall.
Sealey wins 24-9. Looked like he was just drilling on the kid. TD, let him up and immediately in on another shot for a td. A bit sloppy on the mat but damn is he impressive from neutral

Said it to @smalls103 and @McScoreley, but Cunningham is really turning into a very intriguing prospect and I don’t think he’s anywhere near a finished product.
Evanitsky finished S3 and S1 after 2 years at Wyoming Area, and possibly ends up a 3x state champ if he hadn't transferred to Seminary.
(I say "possibly" instead of "likely" only because he might be at Harer's weight this year.)
I thought Cunningham had a chance to beat him but in no way expected a pin. Huge win.
Cunningham is a hammer on top! Does that make him the Cunninghammer?
Where did this kid come from I've never heard of him. He is nowhere in the national HS rankings but is #1 in pa AAA. When did he commit to PSU? His scores show he's no joke!
Next Round of bouts for the recruits:
Semi-Finals:
126lbs- #1 L, Lilledahl vs. #4 S.Mendoza
157lbs- #10 A.Cunningham vs. #6 A.Stewart
165lbs- #2 J.Sealy vs. #3 L.Lockett
Consis
132lbs- M.Gibson gets the winner of Gross vs. Hockaday

When you hear about the legendary feats of strength by Casey …. well … you gotta figure that he passed along not just genes, but, a few of his secret training techniques. A lot of that “strength stuff” does not kick in until 11th/12th grade ….. so I rather expected the kid to slow build. Looks like he is coming into his own now.
Mark my words, while LL and Sealy deservingly get the attention, years from now fans will look back and say we didn't really know what we had coming at the time. Think Nick Lee clone.
If he is, it's only because state champ Kollin Rath stayed down at 152, state finalist Shawn Taylor outgrew 160, and Nick Kunstek (34-1 and #1 last year but ineligible for the postseason) also outgrew 160. (Rath and Taylor have yet to wrestle this year; Kunstek has 1 match in so far.)
That's not to knock Cunningham or downplay his potential at all. Just to note that he has not earned a ranking above any of them yet, including the win over Evanitsky.
Some might also (before last night) rank him below Luke Sipes and/or Sam Gautreau.
BTW, you saw the name, saw a ranking (all rankings list high schools), and didn't connect him as possibly Casey's kid?
Between King of the Mountain, Powerade and Escape the Rock we should have a good idea of where Asher is before we get to the postseason.
I don’t believe he’s currently on Rath’s level but think he can absolutely go with Taylor, Kunstek and Sipes.
