D3 for LU 26 Report post Posted December 27, 2020 (edited) Wow! At 26, this death was way too soon! (Details of what happen to him was not available.) https://www.wfmz.com/_homepage_top_stories/former-pen-argyl-hs-wrestling-football-standout-racciato-dies-at-age-26/article_c164ecc2-47eb-11eb-8b88-b3c31a6c6671.html I remembered him during his HS wrestling days @ Pen Argyl. Definitely a hard nosed wrestler... kind of reminded me a little like Lehigh's Mike Frick ! Really thought that he would 've really took off @ Pitt (possible AA)... won an ACC championship his soph year. Bounced around 141-149... thought 141 would of been (imho) a better fit for his size, but perhaps the cut was a bit too much. Sad happening for his family on Christmas Day, my condolences.
