Two kids from Chestnut Ridge and Berlin beat their kids two times and the District 5 Committee still gave the Bedford boys the top seeds. If this would had happen to Central Dauphin or another school in District 3 I bet you they would fight this how can one school have so much power like Bedford. In the case of Chestnut Ridge this one seed could cost them the team title because the Ridge kid will have to wrestle one of the better wrestler in the afternoon and the Bedford Kids have the lower seeds. This is totaly unfair. Today Bedford High School prove how powerful they are over District 5. Two kids from Chestnut Ridge

Difficult this time of the year because of movement.. Just wondering why you put Pen Argyl ahead of Bermudian when Berm won head to head. Nice thanks..

Is the 113 pounder from Kittaing down from 119 yet. I would liked to seen him and Roberts wrestleing in the Regional finals. Like your rankings. Is the 113 pounder from Kittaing down from 119 yet.

I did a google on Ron Paul, Dormont and found an Oct 11, 2011 article from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette about Paul's roots having been in suburban Pittsburgh, Green Tree and Dormont. He graduated from Dormont HS in 1953. The article says that he was the state 220 champion. Also, there are/were a few Bellwood-Antis guys who were PIAA champs on your lists over the years in the old Class B then AA. Guys I knew personally were Barry Cassidy, discus in the 50's and Ted Miller, javelin, 1963 I think. Don Garman won the discus in the 40's. Thanks for your reply.--Ron I got the date wrong--it was Oct. 23, 2011 for the PG article Rod–I just found your response to my earlier question.

That information exists, but I have to admit that it's something I haven't compiled. I have all of the Team Championships summaries, but I'll have to go back and go through all of the years to get that record. Frankly, that's going to take a while. Kurt,

It has been stated that Logan Murphy, wrestler from Boiling Springs, went 4-0 with 4 pins in 3:30 at the State Team Finals. Actually, it was 4 pins in 2:50. (0:51 + 1:23 + 0:20 + 0:16 = 2:50).

The 95 match win streak by CD is an amazing accomplishment by it self but when you look closely at it, it even becomes more amazing. I went through the scores and came up with the following (math is very close) : Out of 95 duals, only 5 times were opponents within a 10 point margin. (meaning only .05% of the time was the match close enough for a swing bout to maybe change the outcome) Out of 95 duals, CD held opponents to less than 10 pts. 40 times. (42% of the 95 duals opponents were crushed) Team point wise CD out scored their opponents by a 77% average. This is a dominating win streak to say the least! Hey they sure have been fun to watch and I'm sure that won't stop. Take care. Jay G. Rod – Great job on your web sight!

Ironically it was one of these things that may have cost CD a shot at another State Title and continuation of "the streak". Just an observation. Obviously its been done in D-11 for ages. Doesn't make it right. Bethlehem Catholic should win AA every year at the rate they are bringing In kids don't you think? I know they are 2 different situation apples and oranges But both still fruit.... When will PIAA change how they treat these open enrollment or non boundry schools ?
