D3 for LU

Wrestling will start tomorrow morning @ 3am (ah, yep... at 3 #@$&$!am in the morning!) We're starting off w/70, 74, 97, & 125Kg wt. classes first. They're splitting the qualifier rnd w/ 4 wt. classes each day until the last two wts (61 & 86Kg) on Tuesday... finishing off w/ the last medal round on Wednesday. D3

7 out of 10 USA entries are all in the upper brackets... not that it mean anything here (depending who IS in that side of the bracket, along with our guys.) D3

LEHIGH's Ryan Bernholz 1997-2001 AA in his sophomore season 6th at Penn St NCAA's in 1999. EIWA champ in his RS freshman season 1998... placed 3rd & 5th afterwards, in'99 & '01. I would say his biggest and most impressive win was his dual win over Penn's Yoshi Nakamura @ 157. It went into OT and Ryan won in 1-1 tiebreaker. It was the last dual of the season and last for Ryan in Old Grace Hall. THE ENTIRE LEHIGH CROWD LIFTED THE ROOF OFF WITH RYAN'S WIN OVER YOSHI N. It Was AWSOME! Ryan qualified for the NCAA's coming in 5th place at the EIWA's (the surprise team champion was the Harvard!)... and he eventually met Nakamura again in the consis, one rnd before the blood round, but came up short 10-5 dec. Nakamura would eventually place 7th. Oh, but that dual win for Ryan was most memorable! D3

In the court of the crimson king, aah Aah, aah Aah, aah Writers: Ian McDonald & Peter Sinfield D3

And smiles as the puppets dance

But gently pulls the strings

The yellow jester does not play

To satisfy the hoax

I run to grasp divining signs

The wise men share a joke

On soft gray mornings widows cry

In the court of the crimson king, aah Aah, aah

As slowly turns the grinding wheel

The orchestra begin

The pattern juggler lifts his hand

To taste the sweet and sour

I chase the wind of a prism ship

Whilst trampling on a flower

The gardener plants an evergreen

Aah, aah Aah, aah

To the court of the crimson king, aah Aah, aah

To summon back the fire witch

The cracked brass bells will ring

The black queen chants the funeral march

With insufficient schemes
