Re: SCHEDULE

From what I've seen of the Rutgers wrestlers they have not out recruited us , don't see many of them being "Lehigh" students.........find it hard to believe we are in the same recruiting hemisphere for top wrestlers.......many of their better wrestlers have been transfers that would not h...

Re: Anatomy of Recruiting

The Power 5 (or 4) conferences are going to be very, very difficult to compete with financially now that they can actually pay athletes. Combined with NIL funds, there's a lot of money being tossed around. Kind of a depressing situation for smaller schools.

Jordan Wood is a young man with a lot of class. Well spoken, confident, approachable, likable - and best of all, home grown. Knows the school, the academics, the coaches, the area - all the dynamics that would enter into a recruits and their parents decision making process. Not sure if a recruiting ...

Re: Women's Varsity Wrestling.

Intermat is posting four more recruits. Not sure if they were already reported. Coach is killing it. Gimp - I believe that’s a premium feature on InterMat, and that’s a subscription I haven’t sprung for. Would you/could you possibly post their names - along with possibly some info about them? And y...

Re: Columbia Head Coach Opening

It's my understanding he flipped his commitment to Penn, and I don't think he's much of a heavyweight prospect. Geez Mookie - do you ALWAYS have to be so damned negative? Wessell was an undersized heavy too, until he put on what looked like about 30 pounds of pure muscle. Destito was basically an o...

As for overall funding——-Prioritize spending to attract/retain elite wrestlers rather than post grads via LVWC.

Re: Women's Varsity Wrestling.

I see there are several new commits to Lehigh Women’s Wrestling. One of them is Morgan Edwards from Blair. I saw her wrestle at Blair at a Boys Blair/North Hunterdon match. She wrestled a boy from NH. She lost, but looked tough. Had a takedown, and she rode the kid really, really tough. This women’s...
