I know Kenny had a good visit to VT but that's going to be a battle. Some other names, Cam Sontz, Max Konopka I'd definitely be interested in hearing more about. -
How long until VT becomes a top 3 program?

Is Folkstyle what they use for the Clarion Open? That one seemed pretty easy for him. -
Let's see, When was the last time the ACC got 2 huge recruits out of PA. And how many NCAA titles did they win. And how many times was the school on the podium? Does anybody need a hint?

I can see not going to Iowa, because nobody has gotten any better there in recent memory. But I think the reason they bypassed PSU and Ok State was simply because they wanted to be the only ones in the room with the spotlight on them. That wasn't going to happen at Penn State or Oklahoma State. -
White Conservatives are the biggest threat

It was a question regarding it being a conspiracy theory like he implied. I simply asked how that could be unless the parents are in on it. He’s right though it doesn’t add up. What parent would turn their kid in if they didn’t do it. -

Yep, they will surely wipe the mats with Iowa..., just like OSU did last season. Don't count the Hawkeyes out, not yet. -

One my tougher days was putting to sleep our 17 year old black lab. She was still very alert and full of love. But her body had just slowly deteriorated. I am very sorry. They are really good companions.

The RAF 02 card got some more Penn State flavor this evening as another matchup was announced involving a former Nittany Lion star. 2016 NCAA champion, Nico Megaludis, will take on Ukraine’s Andriy Yatsenko in the bantamweight class (135 lbs). Megaludis was a four-time NCAA All-American for Penn State, finishing second as a freshman and sophomore, before taking third as a junior, and then going out on top of the 125 lb weight class as a senior. Though Megaludis was a three-time national finalist, he never captured a Big Ten title. He was a runner-up in each of his final two seasons. He finished with a 119-19 career record for the Nittany Lions. Penn State won NCAA titles in all four years where Megaludis was the starter. After college, Megaludis made two US Open finals - and won the 2022 tournament. Earlier this year, he won three matches at the 2025 Open; however, he suffered a loss to the current RAF bantamweight champion, Nathan Tomasello. Megaludis also participated in the 2024 Olympic Trials. His opponent, Yatsenko, is a 2017 world bronze medalist at 57 kg. Yatsenko was one of the best Cadet wrestlers of his era. He earned three medals at the Cadet World Championships - two of the golden variety. Also at the age group level, Yatsenko was a U23 European champion in 2019. At the 2017 World Championships, Yatsenko fell in the opening round to Thomas Gilman, 5-2. He then battled back through repechage to earn his world medal. Within the last two years, Yatsenko was a silver medalist at the 2023 Rankings Series event in Egypt and won the 2024 Dan Kolov/Nikola Petrov Tournament. With the addition of this match, the October 25th event at Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center now looks like this: Bantamweight (135 lbs) - Nico Megaludis vs. Andriy Yatsenko Welterweight (165 lbs) - James Green vs. Tajmuraz Salkazanov Welterweight (165 lbs) - David Carr vs. Amr Reda Cruiserweight (190 lbs) - Kyle Dake (champ) vs. Boris Makoev Women’s Flyweight (120 lbs) - Helen Maroulis vs. Samantha Stewart Open - Keelon Jimison vs. Cayden Henschel Heavyweight (Unlimited) - Patrick Downey III vs. Jake Varner Bantamweight (135 lbs) - Nathan Tomasello (champ) vs. Roman Bravo-Young Heavyweight (Unlimited) - Mason Parris vs. Aleksandr Romanov

He seems to be already doing that while wrestling in high school. You have to remember Bishop McCort isn't your average high school wrestling an average schedule. Trust me he is getting all the challenges and competition he needs in that wrestling room and in the schedule his team wrestles.

sorry man that's a hard day for sure.

Cathy Englebert WNBA Commissioner. Should she stay or move on?
Paul158 replied to Paul158's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Clark was making several million a year in college. She still had one more year of eligibility when she left college. She would have made several million more had she stayed. When she was in college almost every game she played in home or away were sellout crowds. Clark value to the WNBA league is estimated to be close to a billion dollars. Thats correct, close to 1 billion dollars. Some estimates are even higher. When she arrived at the Indiana Fever the franchise was worth 90 million dollars. The value today 17 months later is 370 million dollars. -

Blaze could be a 4x national champ and it was a one move match, so I don't think that's anything to really detract from him.
