dynasty england four jokes team three won
The team jokes that we're a dynasty because they say if the New England Patriots won three out of four and they're a dynasty, then so are we.
competition great pounds proud wrestlers
I'm satisfied. This is great competition, and we had a lot of wrestlers do well. I'm really proud of Stefan. He's 182 pounds and he did a great job.
bearing lee
They wrestled well. Donnie and Lee have been here so many times, and I think that has a lot of bearing on it.
deep eventually evolve match patiently winner
We're very deep and we have a winner at every weight, so we just have to patiently let the match evolve and we're eventually going to find our points.
guys honest hoping nine
To be honest with you, we were hoping to have nine to the semifinals. I thought they all wrestled good. Some of the guys just didn't finish.
easier road title
The WPIAL runner-up actually has an easier road to the PIAA title match.
extra gave job panicked phenomenal shame
It's a shame it happened. It was out of frustration more than anything. Fortunately, no one panicked after we gave up those extra points. And Donnie did a phenomenal job to get it back.
charming goal hoping state third time title winning
We're hoping the third time will be the charm. Winning a state title has been our goal all season.
allen five guys nine outside
We started off a little slow, but I thought the guys wrestled well. Outside of Allen (Park, at 119), everyone's still in it. We've got nine guys still wrestling, and five in the semis.
against duck good knew learned mentally scholars-and-scholarship team theirs tough wrestlers
With those two out of the lineup, and mentally the team was deflated and knew it would be tough to win. But we learned a little more about Reynolds. We didn't duck anybody. We put our good wrestlers against theirs to see what happened.
advance finals hope kids last section year
We had 12 kids advance to the section finals last year. Our hope this year is to have at least 11 or 12 make it to the finals.
believe bounce guys jeff
I really thought Jeff should've won. You've got to believe you're going to win. But I think all of our guys will bounce back.
four good joe last lee team time titles
This time we'll have Lee and Joe in the lineup. That's four WPIAL titles that weren't in the lineup last time. I think we're as good as any team in Pennsylvania.
coming excellent forward good looking northern team weekend
We're looking forward to the competition. We're coming off two good weekend tournaments and this will be a good test. The team is looking forward to the tournament. Reynolds, Greenville and Northern Lehigh have excellent squads.
