Your proposed lineup for next year is basically a warmed up Drexel. Fine for wrestling in the EIWA but simply not competitive nationally.

>>>>>>> Lane, Hines, Humphreys and Wood are all competitive nationally......and so (now) is Jake Logan. Who but only the very few top tier teams have all 10 competitive? Your standard is waaaay too high.

And yours is way too low. Clearly you're fine with finishing in the 15 to 20 range and having the random 7th or 8th place finisher.

According to Flo's post-NCAA tournament rankings, #15, #16, #18, unrated, and injured doesn't exactly spell "competitive nationally," does it? Looking at last year's post-tournament ranking, Lehigh had #5, #6, #7, #21, and #22, and that did not translate into a competitive 2020-21 tournament. Just some data points.

So who will you be rooting for in the future? Let us know so that we can avoid that team's forum.

Ruth should be competitive nationally next season after having secretly trained in Russia this past season.

But does one tournament translate into competing nationally? Lehigh did manage to defeat 2 Top 5 ranked schools last year plus #15 Minnesota and 3 other Top 20 teams (including Missouri). In my book that's nationally competitive.
We had anticipated 80% of that team returning this year...many didn't. I suspect Cornell knew how that felt in 19-20.

My jury on this team is out until we see how they look after a full season of preparation next year. They may surprise some people.

Please lay off the kid. I suspect you have no idea what his circumstances are and neither do I.

Why would a fan of a team stay off that team's forum? I'm not the one bitching and moaning because it isn't 1965 anymore.
