EIWAs

[gimpeltf]

**** Question: Regarding seating at the EIWAs: for $10.00 more you can get reserved seating for the 3rd and 4th sessions. The Options are E,F, P and O. Does Lehigh have a section? Which sections are the Forum Posters going to be sitting in? Thanks in advance.

I can't answer about all posters but as to a Lehigh section I asked Bucknell and got this answer-

our ticketing manager was working with the Lehigh ticket manager.
Best advice is to have the Lehigh Fan call our campus box office and talk with Tom Ford for seating area.

>>>>>>> Gents, ——-while I appreciate being included in the EIWA gathering, I will be cheering and watching on Flo from the warmth and comfort of my den in Florida.

Probably best that I not attend in person as I might jinx the results. My last visit to Lewisburg included the unfortunate situation of a key Lehigh wrestler missing weight at the EIWAs. It was a bummer on several levels, including the Lehigh wrestler having an early season win, I believe, over an NCAA finalist that year

The Lehigh fan base is getting greyer and balding

**** True for most, but I still have all my hair and still have Some Strawberry Blonde among the gray. For those who do not know me already, at the EIWAs I will be the tall guy, (who used to be slim), but nowadays uses a cane. I had a rough go this fall/winter with my back and hips, but thanks to some good PT, I am getting around pretty well. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the EIWAs. Peace, Love and Good Cheesesteaks and Pierogies.

Looks like Vito not wrestling again till EIWA's per Mike Grey.....So Crookham and Vito will both be a little "rusty".......

Assuming Crookham doesn't wrestle till EIWA's he will have wrestled 14 matches this year and Vito will have wrestled 11.....

They will never wrestle each other again.

[Spladle1989]

Interesting, do elaborate........one or the other too rusty to get to finals? Something else?

[mookie]

Both have injury issues and protective coaches. In the unlikely event they do get to the EIWA finals, one will forfeit.

[legger]

**** While I hope they are both ok, especially for the NCAAs, I do not doubt Mookie on this, as even though he is generally the voice of doom and gloom (especially regarding Lehigh), he does have some very good insights and is privy to a lot of inside info from some of his acquaintances.

If one forfeits the finals... how significantly (if at all) would that impact NCAA seeding? Wouldn't the seeding advantage be worth the risk to wrestle the match?

>>>>>>>> Most coaches protect their guys. IMO, your conclusion is absurd.
