If they meet the requirements to participate at the RTC (USAW age group or SR/UWW placings) athletes can train at the RTC.

They do.

As with any RTC, they would be able to practice with RTC athletes and "guests", such as foreign wrestlers, etc.

You can always manipulate with religion.    Some guy who used to bad booth the church of Scientology.   He founded a church called the church of Scientology  sucks on the belief system that Scientology sucks.   Now the church of Scientology can’t sue him because it discriminates against his religion.   Look it up I dunno how to make this up 

And these missions will somehow only last from the end of March until the beginning of November......

You could just walk the Earth like Kwai Chang Caine, rough up a few outlaws once in a while, and it could be considered a mission.

When’s the last time Cunnigham wrestled 174? 

He just wrestled 79 KG over the summer at the Open and U20s.  79 KG = 174.16lbs.

Too bad Kurt McHenry isn’t still on the team or maybe we could have heard how Cael was telling people to take a religious mission.  I know we’ll never get proof of it but couldn’t that potentially be a violation of rules against separation of church and state?

Couldn't it be the opposite.

Can't force advancement at the state college if taking a break for religion?

They are actually separating it?

PSDS is rampant!   Good for these two, and for any young adults who choose to engage their religion while maximizing life’s potential.

It is hard to criticize two AA caliber wrestlers taking a break from training and going on a mission trip. And they truly and honestly might believe this is an opportunity to serve God and it has nothing to do with wrestling, but it's not like any PSU starters are gonna start going on mission trips.

C'mon man. Henchel isn't a starter, let alone an AA contender.

Like I said.  Psu just happened to find the only two backup AA caliber people in the history of ncaa sports (not even wrestling) who wanted to take a catholic mission year off when they can’t beat the starters ahead of them.     

they did this the same year 5 for 5 was announced.   

pure happenstance lol…    And one left his identical twin brother behind.   That’s normal twin super religious person behavior lol 

honesty is best bosses.   Just be honest.   It’s creative redshirting 

no one has taken a Catholic mission ever for a year off of eligibility in the history of the sport

At one point in time, in the history of NCAA wrestling, no one had ever:

won four division one titles, until someone did

won four division one titles going undefeated, until someone did

won four titles in four weight classes, until someone did

won six ncaa titles, until someone did. 
 

Or more to the point..no one ever:

took a medical redshirt, until someone did

took a grey shirt, until someone did

Took an Olympic redshirt, until someone did

took a religious mission of any kind, until someone did

completed military service before enrolling in college with four years of athletic eligibility in tact, until someone did. 
 

But you know what they all had in common?  They all had haters.  Not because those first time individuals impacted the haters’ own personal lives in any way, but just because the hate within them is so strong.

The last time someone did a Catholic mission, it was the Crusades.

I think you're misreading my comment. I said starters would not be going on missions trips. Even though they aren't starters, I do believe both are AA caliber guys. Cole was AA level last year but didn't do it. It's his brother's spot this year but the field is weaker with 4 AAs graduating. Henckle got silver at U20 worlds. He also beat Patrick Kennedy this summer. He is AA caliber in my mind

[Caveira]

Historically speaking an estimated ~85% of religious missions are before college (tr frosh year) for male athletes.   

another hmmm 

bending the rules and creative redshirting

Will Henckel is a starter at nearly every program in the country. I'd rank him in the top 6 of 174 right now.

Which is precisely why this is gaming the system.  More years for the high end backups when they should not deserve them.    More 25/26 year old seniors that did 8th grade twice and pull this type of shenanigans 

I know the color of the glasses u wear so I know your opinion

I did hear they were living in a hotel I don’t know why though.   Who knows.   In their mission on the east or west coast?   The west in cali seems like the right place to start
