  1. I wasn't an athlete, turned 17 in January of my senior year in high school. From what I can tell, someone in my situation can take two greyshirt years and still get 5 for 5.
  2. Freshman Sophomore Junior Senior Professional
  3. Probably depends on whether your future is with a Wall Street investment firm or as a high school coach.
  4. The comings and goings of the freres Ferrari aren't even news anymore.
  5. Lehigh hasn't added a 3rd assistant yet.
  6. I'd like to say no way, but there's always a team with no scruples and a roster spot to fill. Is anybody else impressed that Douglas County (county seat: Omaha) has streets numbered up through 204?
  7. Freshman eligibility for sports other than basketball and football began in 1970. Pat Smith won his fourth NCAA title in 1994. It took 21 years, not 35. Your point is still valid -- 21 years for the first, six in the 32 years since. Kind of like Triple Crown winners in horse racing -- none for 30 years, then a cluster, then another long gap.
  8. Leyte Gulf. The full message was "turkey trots to water gg where repeat where is task force 34 rr the world wonders". The first and last parts were filler to make it harder for the enemy to intercept and decode.
  9. Maybe one more thing to add -- 1: Dual win over Cael Sanderson-coached Penn State squad. Not many coaches can claim that.
  10. Brackets: https://www.wrestlingstats.com/ncaa/pdf/brackets/NCAA 1937.pdf
  11. Much depends on the child's birthday. Most states have school cutoff dates in the fall; in Virginia it's Sept 30th. Children normally need to have their birth date before Sept 30, 2021 in order to begin kindergarten in 2026. Those born on or after October 1, 2021 wait until 2027. A child born on 9/30/2021 would graduate HS in May 2039, four months short of 18. Born on 10/1/2021, graduation is in May 2040, eight months after 18th birthday. In reality, at least where I live, many parents hold their children back a year if they're born in the second half of that window; not all kids are ready to begin school when the rules say they should. My son was born in early July and was almost always the youngest child in his class, and occasionally the youngest in his grade. In kindergarten he had a couple of classmates who were 18 months older; they'd flunked kindergarten the first time through. The youngest college wrestler I can remember hearing about was Cornell's Jerry Rinaldi, who supposedly was still 17 when he first suited up for the varsity. Colleges don't post birthdates anymore, a good idea to protect privacy.
  12. Do tattoos on arms count against the two-patch limit? And do the wrestlers get lifetime supplies of the product if it's tattooed into their flesh?
  13. Odd .... the only three transfers in the portal who chose to stay at their old school (so far) are Stanford wrestlers. Can you spell $NIL?
  14. I agree. My son was always the youngest child in his grade. Bummed me out to see kids 18 months older then him getting varsity spots. But he was also always able to handle the coursework.
