Why is Clarion on our schedule?

In the good old days, even Bloomsburg was a challenge for us, we wrestled them every year from 1978 - 1993 and lost 5 and tied 1 if memory serves. Ricky Bonomo won three titles for Bloom and Lyco may know the Champs for Clarion, at least Charlie Heller.
Charlie was freaking great, 3 times an AA and once a finalist but no NCAA gold to with his PIAA golds.
1. Gary Barton
2. Don Rohn
3. Wade Schalles
4. Bill Simpson
5. Wade Schalles
6. Kurt Angle
7. Kurt Angle
8. Shelton Thomas

Clarion just gave WVU a damn good match. Change that 6 point move against Kaleno and that match could have been won by clarion
 
I disagree with this. As a percent of content wrestling discussion is down but overall volume I think is way up. As the years have passed and PSU continues to dominate more and more people are stopping by regularly, meeting before and after duals and tournaments and as such become friendly or gasp...friends. Friends tend to discuss more than just one topic. I prefer to think of this board as a men's board of a group that are all interested in wrestling, many consider it a passion but as friends they discuss many things they are of interest.
I post very little, but I follow pretty religiously. I know of 1 female that posts on this board and her avatar has dogs. Sorry I can't remember your/her handle but as a fan I appreciate your perspective. I'm not calling you out @Agoodnap, I just want to continue to make this forum broader and welcome their perspective on this board. If I have messed up the incorrect pronouns, I apologize, I'm an old man and never have I had to worry about this.

Oh. Fantastic! I hope she doesn't mind the humor, particularly the rag-dolling.

I am choosing to come to a wrestling board, so I expect it to be dominated by “guy humor”. If I don’t find something funny I ignore it, and if it’s really offensive, I would block it. But I honestly don’t think I have blocked anyone on this board over anything other than trolls spewing Ped State stuff.
 
Had you left out “on Twitter”, I’d been even more impressed and wondering just how connected you are.
I don't social media much. As I followed Cael's Twitter, I figured I'd try its direct message feature to ask him a similar question as the OP (albeit maybe I worded mine a bit more tactfully). This was some time ago, maybe even before his first NCAA team championship. He responded pretty quickly, which was a pleasant surprise.

I met her before the Iowa meet and she is a heck of a nice person!
 
A few of us saw the company you had within a 15’ circle that evening. Are we sure you are a good judge of character?

Not to sidetrack, but since we all have time today lol what’s everyone’s opinion on ranking of every PA D1 wrestling team in duel format?

Clarion may score more points than some BIG teams!!
Unlikely. As of right now per Intermat Clarion has no one ranked in the top 33 so there is a good chance they have no qualifiers for NCAAs. Meanwhile MD has 4 ranked wrestlers at #13, 15, 18 & 24. Rutgers has 9 ranked wrestlers at #14, 15, 16, 18, 20, & 33.

All of Rutgers starters are either elite or will be when they qualify for their 2nd B10 tournament.

My should be 1 because they had seasons where they finished ahead of PSU.


They are a better program than Maryland unless you started watching wrestling in 2011.


Ironic that the same people on this thread are also complaining about OSU/Cornell.

What? Exactly one person complained in the thread. Well, if I count you it's two people complaining.
