  1. I think freshmen could compete a couple years before you came on the scene but still few did. You were likely the first most noticeable one we saw. There was a scholarship limit of 11 prior to the across the board 10% cut in the early 90s. I'm not sure when it started. I don't remember talk of limits in the 70s either. Never thought about it until you mentioned it. Prior to the 70s, I suspect the better way to refer to it was that there was no limit to the under the table "scholarships" given.
  2. Five Words is back again?
  3. You do understand that a generation is about a quarter of a century.
  4. ???? NJs best wrestler of the century doesn't translate to that? Seriously? What he ended up doing isn't relevant to what he was considered prior.
  5. Not a titlist- 6th in 1984 at 167 Rudy Isom Wisc. Lost 4-3. Won 2 straight Ffts. Won 1-0. Lost 4-2.
  6. He was voted NJs best wrestler of the century.
  7. His major at Lehigh was Earth and Environmental Science. I see KSU has a Masters program in that field
  8. He's showing up on WrestleStat but not in the OPC or on the KSU site. I wonder if he's looking to join 2nd semester.
  9. ??? Did you actually look? Assuming you are looking for Mens FS- FS Main
  10. Possibly my all time favorite short movie!
  11. Gizoni won in the early 50s. ('50/'51). The last year I see like you mention appears to be '40.
  12. It's a club. She's listed on the team site- but not in the OPC.
  13. But officer- all those other cars were speeding, too!
  14. Seeding is by points. They happen at the Continental Championships the week before and at the Last Chance Saloon (oops, qualifier)
  15. Also Gene Barber 2nd '73
  16. Not positive about head to head but they do count in WL but not in RPI. "Forfeits and medical forfeits count towards the winning percentage but do not count toward the 15-match RPI."
  17. Yes. Maybe wrestlestat hasn't adjusted yet.
  18. I think it's an X-Company!
  19. Never wrestled in a program. A couple times in IMs. However, I'll give you a HOF workout partner list. Bob Zaro- 2x NJ Champ (same HS he was a year behind so his homeroom was right next to mine). Herb Campbell- Undefeated NJ Champ as a senior, Lehigh captain. We were in the same freshman dorm. When he found out I was from Pburg he said let's wrestle. I told him I never wrestled. "It's ok- you're from Pburg". For years I thought he was suggesting that anyone from Pburg could wrestle since Pburg was #1 in the state around then for years (sometimes sharing with Paulsboro during their first big streak). I found out later the real reason was that Herbie's last loss in HS was at regions his junior year to a 2x NJ runnerup from Pburg. Mark Lieberman- Not really a workout as much as he grabbed me and put me in a lap tilt. Somehow I popped out of it. It stunned him and he let me go asking me how I did it. Self-preservation, I guessed. Pete Schuyler- NJ Champ and NCAA AA. Darryl Burley- NJ Champ, 4x NCAA finalist and 2x Champ. Admittedly they were drilling and I was going live (and they weren't having any difficulty)
  20. And then a cross over between the sides.
  21. Yup
  22. Just before covid- Lehigh had the Wall Street Firm of Price, Sell and Dunn!
  23. Besides the 4 listed for Lehigh Seamus Mack and Matty Lopes https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=810692847731785&set=pcb.810692891065114
