Mokoma 326 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 Who are the two guys in the tournament this year who have beaten Kyle Dake (not counting Taylor, who beat Dake in 6th grade or so)? Dake has more NCAA titles than he had state high school titles (just 2). Is there anyone else who can make this claim. (Hint: I know of one close at hand, but I am thinking there is more than one). PA has probably 20 guys at least who won more NCAA titles than state titles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VT Inside Trip 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 Greg Jones has to be the best example of that. 1 state title, 3 (should've been 4, not sure how he lost to Ralph Everett) national titles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or, that New Jersey kids have developmental issues (develop+mental), and until they get the hell out of there, they don't figure things out :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBar1977 4,600 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 Bosak was the easy one, I thought. Ruth, of course. has a national prep title in HS. Both of them had to go thru Quentin Wright at PIAA if I recall correctly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBar1977 4,600 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 BTW, Andy Matter won more NCAA titles than state titles. He won PIAA in 1968, then while at Penn State won NCAA in 1971 and 1972. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Hint: I know of one close at hand, but I am thinking there is more than one). Heck, Dake might wind up with more NCAA titles than EIWA titles. Can you name the wrestler who beat him at the Easterns?

leshismore 216 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 I was matside the last time Dake was pinned.Who knows where that was and who pinned him? Hint: He sang the at the NCAA's in Philly. chris conti - spladle dake was winning 13-2? just a guess though it was probably on mat 6 in the quarter finals on mat 6 year was probably 2006 but hey idk It was the semis and mat 5 if I remember ;) The way DT is going this could be the next time he is pinned Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
