If folks have interest to seeing any particular details, let me know.  I have all of the D1 data combined now and it has undergone one cleaning exercise.  I will continue to scrub the data over time.  

You must work work for the government.

Little Dundee Michigan 6000 ppl been putting out studs for years....Davison n DCC usually have the biggest named/ranked D1 recruits in Michigan but Dundee whole line up wins a state Championship or places top 3 and has a lot of guys go to smaller D1 programs....Stoney Buehl, Casey Swirdirski, Branden Davis, and 2026 Michigan Top 15 recruit Blake Cosby

Also forgot the Rendina brothers one went to Cornell and other to Michigan...Kaden Chinavere Went to CMU...Kade Kluce Bloomington.... I'm sure there's a few of forgetting about but for a town of 6,000 for a school to produce that many D1 wrestlers in the last 10 to 12 years is pretty impressive

Yes that is quite the impressive list of colleges.  I did notice Nate Taylor 184 lb sophomore at Penn is from Sandy Hook Ct.   Any chance he is a survivor of the shooting at Sandy Hook elementary?  Looks like that happened in 2012 so a child in 1st grade then would likely be a sophomore in college now.

On a positive note, I see Penn also has a guy named Nathan Taylor.  Combined with the Lehigh one and that is 3 Nate/Nathan Taylor’s at D1 wrestling schools.  Are there any more?  What is the most popular first/last name combo?

edit: and on the name front, I’d be curious how many Cael/Kael/Kale/Cale’s there are.

you can tell that to the creators of google sheets.  I'm a data guy as well - you won't find me formatting the information.  I used to be a lotus guy back in the day haha

[NYupstate]

If "Ty" is short for "Tyler", as I suspect it is in some cases, that would bump the lead even bigger.

Not really a data guy if you used Lotus. More of an abacus fellow I would say!

Not really. I've driven through most of them and never been stopped by security.  They do get pissy when you walk into their classrooms though.

I tend to think of flyingcement as a guy who counts on his fingers and toes and somehow comes up 21.
