Angry Fish Wrestling Club

Last Saturday, Angry Fish Coleman Scott and Phil Davis each won NCAA titles in commanding style.

In the finals, Coleman, a senior at Oklahoma State, pinned Iowa’s Joey Slaton in 49 seconds. Phil, a senior at Penn State, cruised to a 7-2 win over Wynn Michalak of Central Michigan. Senior Mark McKnight of Penn State wrestled eight matches to rise from an unseeded start to fourth place.

Six other Fish were in the tournament: Steven Bell (Maryland), Adam Frey (Cornell), Ryan Lang (Northwestern), Jarrod King (Edinboro), Josh Weitzel (Oklahoma), and Kurt Brenner (West Virginia).

Update: When this post went up, it failed to mention Mark McKnight. This was a gross oversight, probably resulting from the fact that it was written at quarter to three in the morning.

Obtaining the gym permits for the youth session has been difficult; we apologize for the great delay. This week’s practices will be at North Allegheny Intermediate School, in the small gym.

You can find a map to the Intermediate School here (Google Maps).

Due to the lateness of this announcement, it is quite possible that few athletes will be in attendance the first week. For those that attend, we will at least get registration done. We expect that things will be normal by next week.

It is highly likely that NAI will be home to our youth session for the rest of the season. There are a few last details which remain to be worked out however; a change of venue at some point is unlikely, but not impossible.

Thanks for your patience (assuming you’ve been patient).
