WAYNESBURG, Pa. -- Ron Headlee’s work in turning the Waynesburg University wrestling team from an afterthought to a nationally-recognized program is just the latest in his long line of accomplishments on the mats. This June, Headlee will be recognized for those accomplishments when he is inducted into the Washington/Greene Chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame. The induction ceremonies, which will take place on June 11 and 12 and feature 16 different individuals, will highlight more than 30 years as a wrestler and a coach, which began when he graduated Waynesburg Central High School in 1978. After leaving WCHS, Headlee became a three-time NAIA All-American wrestler at Messiah College, and became the school’s first NCAA Division III Wrestling All-American after placing fifth at the national tournament in 1982. He was also the school’s record holder for wins (101) at the time of his graduation. After finishing his own competitive days, Headlee moved onto very successful stints as a high school coach at both Jefferson-Morgan High School and his alma mater of WCHS. While with J-M, Headlee led his squads to an 111-25-1 record and five Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League (WPIAL) team titles during his nine years with the Rockets. From there, Headlee went on to spend a handful of years at WCHS as an assistant, before leaving coaching in 2007. After a very brief hiatus, Headlee returned to coach the Yellow Jackets to a 10-4 record in 2008-09 and complete one of the most amazing turnarounds in Waynesburg and Division III wrestling histories. Prior to Headlee’s arrival, the Jackets enjoyed just two wins in three years. With his induction into the Washington/Greene Chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame, Headlee joins the likes of Pittsburgh mayor Luke Ravenstahl, former University of Wisconsin football coaching great Barry Alvarez, NFL head coach Marvin Lewis and NFL Hall of Famer Bill George. Headlee also becomes the latest in a line of athletes, coaches and administrators with ties to Waynesburg University. Included in that list are coaching legend and current Athletic Director Rudy Marisa, coaching great John F. Wiley and former NFL wide receiver Don Hermann.

NEWTON, Iowa -- Wrestling Insider Newsmagazine (WIN) is announcing the winners of six of the magazine’s major awards for 2009. The following is a list of the awards and the recipients: Mike Chapman Impact Award: Scott Casber, Takedown Radio/TV Bob Ferraro, National High School Coaches Association Dan Gable Coach of the Year: Mark Manning, University of Nebraska Junior Hodge Trophy: Chris Perry, Stillwater (Okla.) High School Schalles (Pinning) Award: Josh Patterson, Binghamton University Junior Schalles (Pinning) Award: Eloheim Palma, Cary (N.C.) High School Journalist of the Year: Tim Johnson, Big Ten Network/ESPN (Note: WIN had already announced the winner of the Hodge Trophy -- for the nation’s best collegiate wrestler -- in late March, when Jake Herbert of Northwestern was honored.) The following are biographical sketches of each of the award winners: Mike Chapman Impact Award -- Named after Mike Chapman, the founder of WIN and current director of the Dan Gable International Wrestling Institute and Museum in Waterloo, Iowa. Scott Casber is the founder of Takedown Radio/TV, which is beginning its 13th year of providing wrestling fans an Internet site (TakeDownRadio.com) to follow national events on nearly every level of amateur wrestling, including the NCAA championships, NWCA National Duals and World Team Trials. Scott Casber“I think it is important to give the wrestling public a broad picture of the wrestling culture across the country,” Casber said. “We usually only think about what is in our backyard. Wrestling is so much more to all people. We discover the passion for wrestling is even greater than I thought 13 years ago when we started the program.” In addition, Scott and his co-host Steve Foster travel all over the country covering in-season college tournaments and dual meets. They will also be introducing a highlight news show format on wrestling this fall on cable and satellite systems. “The miles that Scott has put on traveling around to broadcast live at wrestling events and practice rooms is staggering,” said WIN publisher Bryan Van Kley. “He deeply loves wrestling and wrestlers and works with every fiber of his being to promote our great sport to the max.” Scott is a native of Des Moines, Iowa, who fell in love with wrestling when he attended Iowa working on a marketing/promotions degree in the early 1980s and wore the Herky mascot uniform at Hawkeye wrestling matches. “I could see wrestling up close and personal,” said Casber. “I noticed that these guys were real people, who struggled with real problems, struggled to maintain their identity. They struggled with real issues whether they were self-created or not.” Bob Ferraro, a native of Easton, Pa., serves as the CEO/Founder of the National High School Coaches Association, which puts on over 100 state, regional and national events in 20 sports, including the NHSCA Senior Nationals in wrestling, which recently held its 20th anniversary of the event. During the past two decades, the event now offers national competition for all four grades of high school. “I felt we needed the high visibility sports to get wrestling the attention that it needed,” said Ferraro. “I felt that if we could build an organization with more than one sport, we could make a much bigger impact on the sport.” “What impresses me so much about Bob is his vision for wrestling,” said Van Kley. “He looks at the bigger picture beyond just an event or particular situation. The High School Nationals has turned into a "can't-miss" event which has been a great tool for prospective college wrestlers and the coaches who are recruiting them. All of this is because of Bob's vision for that event and the NHSCA as an organization.” Ferraro, who finished second nationally at the 1970 NCAAs at 150 pounds for Indiana State and later served as head coach at Bucknell, said he created the NHSCA when he was looking for national competitions for his son, Bobby, who in turn will take over the NHSCA in June 2010, when Bob retires. “I feel kind of a relief that my vision will be fulfilled and I’m excited about my son’s vision being implemented,” said Bob. “He is a very creative guy and has been with us for about two years now. He is ready to take off with his own vision.” Dan Gable Coach of the Year -- Named after the legendary University of Iowa coach who won 15 NCAA team championships between 1978 and 1997. Mark Manning has been a head coach at the Division I level for 12 years, including the past nine at Nebraska, where his Cornhuskers captured their first Big 12 championship — sharing the honor with Iowa State — and finishing fourth at the NCAAs for a second consecutive year. Manning also saw Jordan Burroughs become the school’s tenth NCAA champion when the junior captured the 157-pound title, while 197-pound Craig Brester (2nd), 174-pound Brandon Brown (4th) and 184-pound Vince Jones (6th) earned All-American honors. Mark ManningIn addition, Nebraska finished 17-3-1 in dual meet competition and captured the Las Vegas Invitational in December. All of this happened after Manning was forced to dismiss a pair of returning national qualifiers, including 2007 NCAA champion Paul Donahoe at 125 pounds, because of an off-the-mat incident. Then a week before the Big 12 tournament, Manning and his team had to deal with the death of Thayes Browne, the 49-year-old mother of a pair of Huskers (Brandon and Cameron, a 197-pound sophomore), who died from a heart attack while watching another son at the Nebraska state high school tournament. Manning said this year’s events made his realized he chose the right profession. “That’s why you coach; to make an impact on young men’s lives and obviously we had a lot of teaching moments this year; from not only with our young guys but to our veterans who were tested,” said the 45-year-old Manning. “I believe the faith element of our program was really put to the test and came out with flying colors.” Junior Dan Hodge Trophy -- Named after Dan Hodge, the former three-time University of Oklahoma national champion (1955-57) who never allowed a takedown in his college career. He also pinned 36 of his 46 victims. Chris Perry is the top-ranked 189-pounder from Stillwater, Okla., where he won four state of Oklahoma high school championships. He also is the brother of Mark Perry, the 2003 Junior Hodge Trophy winner who later earned two NCAA championships at Iowa (2007-08), and the nephew of Oklahoma State coach John Smith, who will coach the younger Perry next year. “Growing up, even though John Smith is my uncle and Mark Perry is my brother, it’s always been a goal for me to do what they’ve done,” Chris added. “I never look at it as pressure. I look at it as a possible accomplishment for me.” Chris Perry also captured the Junior Nationals in freestyle last summer in Fargo, N.D., and recently won the Junior FILAs in Las Vegas in April. For his high school career, Chris Perry was 133-1 with 70 falls. Schalles Award -- Names after Wade Schalles, who set the college pin record at Clarion (Pa.) State where he also won two NCAA championships (1972-73). During his career, Schalles defeated 153 of 159 opponents and pinned 109. Josh Patterson of Binghamton racked up 22 falls and finished the season 46-6. His 46 wins were also the most of any Division I wrestler. The junior also became Binghamton’s first Division I All-American, finishing seventh at the NCAA Championships at 184 pounds. “I realized I was going to be able to accomplish my goals at Binghamton,” said Patterson, who also has had two brothers wrestle for the Bearcats. He felt achieving the program’s first All-American honor and winning an award like the Schalles will help Binghamton get other top-level kids. “I really think it’s going to put us on the map and show kids they can come to a school like Binghamton and become All-Americans,” he said. Junior Schalles Award Eloheim Palma of Cary (N.C.) only let one of his 62 victims in an undefeated season go the distance when he settled for a 10-4 decision of the state tournament; netting the heavyweight his fourth state championship. Eloheim PalmaOverall, Palma pinned 50 opponents this year and also earned 10 forfeits and one technical fall. For his career, Palma pinned 159 opponents in compiling a 225-9 mark in four years. “I don’t feel that I’ve won a match unless I pin someone,” said Palma, who also captured the NHSCA Senior National Championship as the nation’s top-ranked heavyweight and will compete for North Carolina State next fall. “When you pin someone there is no doubt that you beat someone.” “Everyone will talk about how hard a kid works but this wrestler is special,” said his high school coach Jerry Winterton. “Eloheim outworks everyone in the room. As a heavyweight it is amazing how he'll run sprints, lift weights, do pull-ups and all the extras to better himself.” Journalist of the Year Tim Johnson is a native of Morning Sun, Iowa, and current resident of Champaign, Ill., where he serves as the regional director of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes in Champaign. The former Coe College wrestler and high school wrestling coach also has spent the past 20 years broadcasting college wrestling matches; most recently the past two years for the Big Ten Network and ESPN. Among his highlights this year was handling the play-by-play for the Iowa-Iowa State dual meet, Dec. 6, which drew a national-record 15,955 fans to Carver-Hawkeye Arena. “When do I get the most excited about wrestling?” said Johnson. “It’s when the place is up for grabs. The record crowd was exciting. When you’ve got Dan Gable (as a color commentator) going nuts next to you, it’s always exciting to me. My arm gets a little tired trying to keep him in his seat sometimes.” Johnson also was part of the ESPN’s broadcast team that carried the quarterfinals, semifinals, placement matches and finals live at this year’s NCAA tournament in St. Louis, Mo. “I do expect ESPN’s coverage to grow because they are very happy with the interest,” Johnson said. “The producer, John Vassallo, is one of the greatest leaders I’ve ever been around. He is for wrestling and the reason and driving force behind 12 hours of live wrestling on ESPN.”

Things have not gone as expected for Matt Cathell this spring. After going a perfect 16-0 during the season and pinning three opponents in the first period of the East Regional, the 149-pounder from Delaware State dropped his first two matches at the 2009 NCAA Championships in St. Louis. Even more heart wrenching than a couple losses on the wrestling mat, was the news that came a month later. His wrestling program, Delaware State, was cut. Matt Cathell is a two-time NCAA qualifier (Photo/BuckeyeWrestling.com)Several factors weighed into the school’s decision to cut the wrestling program, including economic concerns, academics, and gender equity. “I was pretty upset,” said Cathell, who compiled a 45-8 record in two seasons at Delaware State. “I thought I might not be able to wrestle anywhere else because I didn’t know if I would be able to afford any other school or what kind of scholarship offers would be out there. But after I found out that I could go someplace else and afford it, it made me feel a lot better.” Cathell, a Camden, Delaware native who competed at Caesar Rodney High School, originally chose Delaware State because of the pride he has for his home state. “I just like being able to represent Delaware,” said Cathell, who was recently named Delaware State's 2008-09 Male Student Athlete of the Year. “I’m from Delaware. I grew up in Delaware. I wrestle for Delaware. Delaware doesn’t always get the props for its wrestling, even though there’s a lot of wrestling in Delaware. I just want a chance to represent Delaware and do well.” Delaware State was going to pay for Cathell’s education if he stayed at the school, but he has decided to transfer because he still has some goals that he would like to accomplish on the wrestling mat. “I was thinking about maybe staying, but I haven’t placed at the NCAAs,” said Cathell, who was ranked No. 10 at 149 pounds in InterMat’s final regular season rankings. “Maybe if I would have placed one of those years, I would have considered staying. But I want to be an All-American.” Cathell has been weighing his options since the Delaware State’s wrestling program was cut. He recently returned from a trip to Kent State, which is the only school he has visited. Matt Cathell lost narrowly, 4-3, to three-time All-American Lance Palmer of Ohio State in the opening round of the 2009 NCAAs (Photo/BuckeyeWrestling.com)“I’m really, really leaning towards going Kent State,” said Cathell. “I’m pretty sure that I’m going to go there, but I want to look at everything first. But I liked Kent State a lot. They have a lot of great things. I visited there for a couple days. I really like the area. The team is great, too.” Cathell admits that he would like to be a part of a team that is committed to winning. “I would like to be on a team that is competitive and be a part of the overall success,” said Cathell. “We had some close matches at Delaware State, but most of the time we were just wrestling for ourselves with no chance to win.” In 2008, Cathell qualified for the NCAA Championships as a true freshman, going 1-2. This past season, he went 0-2 in St. Louis, losing his first match, 4-3, to three-time All-American Lance Palmer of Ohio State, before falling 9-3 to talented freshman Jason Chamberlain of Boise State in the consolation bracket. “I definitely wish that my conditioning would have been better,” said Cathell of his disappointing performance in St. Louis. “In my first match against Palmer, I was wrestling hard and smart, but I wasn’t taking any big chances. I guess what I learned from that is that you have to take some bigger risks to get something. If I could go back, I would probably be a lot more offensive. I think I wrestled a really good match against Palmer, but coming right back against Chamberlain, I was out of it. I was wrestling hard. He’s just good. You can’t make mistakes against good guys. They’ll capitalize on those mistakes.”

Glenn County, Calif. -- Purdue assistant wrestling coach Tom Erikson took time last weekend to participate in the Field of Dreams charity event in Northern California, donating his time for the fourth consecutive year to the wonderful cause. Field of Dreams is an annual event in which children with disabilities or have lost a parent in the military are given the opportunity to spend a day outdoors fishing and hunting with celebrities from several realms of life. Field of Dreams was founded by Tom Dermody of Williams and is sponsored by the California Deer Association, of which he is a member. With the help of several organizations and celebrities, the event allows children to spend a day in the sun, enjoying a barbecue and fishing or hunting in the north state. The event expanded this year to provide a day of fun to children of fallen veterans. This year's event was held at Stonyford Ranch, in western Glenn County, between Stonyford and Elk Creek, and brought in 11 families with 27 kids from as far away as San Diego. Among those who donated time to the worthy event included Erikson, fellow MMA icons Don Frye, Gary Goodridge and Rick Vardell, actor-comedian Rob Schneider, actor Tim Abell and 2008 Beijing Olympic gold-medalist Stephanie Brown-Trafton. Field of Dreams gives a lot of kids the opportunity to get out and do some fishing when they might not otherwise get to go," said Erikson. "It's really a family event. Families are great people." Erikson said some of the people attending Field of Dreams are living with tragedy in their lives 365 days a year, 24 hours a day -- whether it's the family with a disabled or dying child or family living with the loss of a parent in the Iraq War. "Our goal is to get them out and do something fun," Erikson said. "If all of us spending five minutes here and five minutes there with these kids makes a difference in their lives, then that is what we want to do."

BLACKSBURG -- The Virginia Tech Athletic Department, along with head wrestling coach Kevin Dresser, announced Thursday that former Iowa State standout Kurt Backes will join the staff of the Hokies beginning immediately. Backes will serve as volunteer assistant wrestling coach for Virginia Tech after spending the 2009 season as strength and conditioning coordinator for the University of Missouri. Kurt Backes (Photo/Tech-Fall.com)“I saw how well Virginia Tech did [in 2008-09],” Backes said. “They have a lot of talent, and I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to come aboard and help. Coach [Kevin] Dresser worked under Dan Gable, so he learned from the best, and now I feel like I can learn from the best in Coach Dresser.” Prior to his Missouri stint, Backes was a two-time All-American at Iowa State University. Backes took seventh place at the NCAA Championships at 184 pounds his freshman year, and then collected runner-up honors as a senior at 197 pounds. Backes won Big 12 titles at 184 pounds in 2005 and 2006. In his Cyclone career, Backes tallied 109 wins. He spent the 2008 season as a member of the support staff for the 2008 Big 12 Champion Cyclones.

His background in New Jersey and at Iowa State will also be addition to Virginia Tech wrestling. He will work the entire team, however wrestling with the big guys will be an asset.” Backes was born May 13, 1983 and graduated from Iowa State in 2007 with a degree in business finance. A native of Neshanic Station, N.J., he attended Blair Academy, where he was a three-time national prep and New Jersey state champion.
