Well, it’s time to come out of retirement. I’ll have a blog of today’s wrestling match between Central Dauphin and Parkland beginning at approximately 1:30 p.m. from Garden Spot High School.
I would have promoted this earlier, but I didn’t know until this morning that I would be able to attend the match. It’s rare that my schedule co-operates with me.
Regardless, the blog appears below. Now, if I can just remember these new-fangled weight classes …
After a technical glitch or two, the Off The Mat state Class AA wrestling rankings are now available for your perusal and enjoyment.
My pal Mark Dugan, a two-time PIAA Class AA wrestling champion from Moshannon Valley back in the ’70s (the 70s!), is the man behind the rankings, which be accessed by clicking here.
Enjoy.
I was waaaaay lax getting this up on the site (and apologize to Garden Spot wrestling coach Hoyt Craver, who moved the information to me a week ago).
Usually, I don’t post much about regular-season events because I’m so championship-centric, but the Thomas Hecker Duals at Garden Spot on Saturday have a serious championship mien.
Three high-quality and unbeaten teams are in the field: Four-time PIAA dual meet champion Central Dauphin (11-0), District 11 tough guy Parkland (12-0) and Solanco (7-0).
Central Dauphin and Parkland are in the same pool and are scheduled to meet at 1:30 at Garden Spot, which is located in New Holland along a lonely stretch of PA 23 in Lancaster County (well, it’s not that lonely, especially if you’re in the market for some farm equipment). The winner of that pool seems likely to face Solanco in the championship match at 4:30 p.m.
The pool assignments and schedule can be accessed here.
