Tom's answer he requested for longest streaks on the roster:
Col 1 = tot. roster yrs for the HS; Col 2 = end of their streak (which is Col 3)
--------------------------
48-- 1992--21-Blair
38-- 2010--19-Nazareth
55-- 1988--18-Becahi
----- 2007--17-Plum
11-- 1981--12-Seton Hall Prep
25-- 2010---9-Easton
n/a- 1990---7-Acad Of New Church
39-- 2004---6-Liberty; interesting they never had 7 straight

But Blair is automatically DQ'd for too many PG's used in '70s, '80s
So Nazareth wins -- and *could* be 21 ---- if you can validate '90 & '91

FYI, I charted 30 and 35 names those yrs but no Silimpari, who I found in '92,'93,'94. I used actual rosters from media guides I owned or borrowed from Lehigh.

I note Boomer's database of all bouts since 1910 shows Anthony 3 yrs only, which only means varsity bouts; doesn't prove Anthony wasn't on '91 or ' 92. Up to you; give him a call?

Thx again for all those lunch invites.

Anthony Silimperi graduated from Nazareth in 1990. The database I saw had his 1st bout in the '91-'92 season so I assumed perhaps incorrectly that he was on the roster for '90-'91 season but saw no action.

I don't have access to rosters for that year.

As for the luncheons, I'm looking forward to scheduling another one as soon as the schedule is finalized so I'll extend the invitation (always a hit) again when the details are announced.

There were 5 C's from Plum. Steve Cassidy, Cip, Closson, overlappin two years, vowell man, and Matt C. I remember all but VM at Hershey. There was a 6th potential, but he went elsewhere. (Cent Mich?).

Silimpari threw me. Brad was never at Lehigh, then i saw you were talking about his cousin/brother.

I stumbled upon Plum first hall of fame class. 4 athletes, 4 coaches, athletes were Steve, Bill, another wrestler who graduated, Annapolis, and a Girl. I suspect Cip and Matt were later inductees.
