Joe, Mason was a great young man and a pleasure to be around. He was a big reason Ed’s won a state team title and if at any other school would of been a 3 or 4 year state placer. As you said the most important part was the education he received and the life lessons he learned. Be proud of the young man you raised.
"Most" kids who would get to the state finals , Ed's finds a way to get them in the lineup, if they're that good. I would expect their national resume is pretty high also if that were the case. Placers who dont make the lineup certainly is legit fairly often. But agreed the Ed's system in the wrestling room and educationally certainly has benefits many others don't. I'll add that that wrestler forced to sit the bench has to really BUY ALL IN to the programs benefits. Thats hard to do sometimes and not ALL kids like, or can handle the grind, with out seeing the payout while a student.
Do they train mostly at Riggs or up at TWFOC?
Not sure, all I know is that my buddy said they recently toured Perry
Kids are hammers. Perry would be lucky to land them.
Ed's has had several " Hammers " over the years, some better than those advertised. Wont be the first or the last "hammer".
Agreed, plus you get their grandpappy, I'm sure with his connections they will get top notch training partners to come into the room, not only for them but the entire team

Just curious Boro, what would Perry's lineup look like in your opinion if the Rohr's ended up at Perry? Also heard but not yet confirmed that Logan Shepard's brother may transfer in, he's probably in the 175-190lb range
If the Rohr’s end up at Perry, I would pencil Mason in at 113. That would likely cause another notable wrestler to sit the bench (Perry had a few this past season as well).
You may be right, but McBurney didn’t cut any weight last year to make 106 and just weighed-in at 103.8 for the qualifier at Uniontown, while Rohr weighed-in at 112.6 at Delta last week. This may be a moot point, as I hear it is now down to Ed’s and Wadsworth (just what I heard though).
thats a great sign (and if Brecksville is sending alot too thats even better for ohio). Seen many a guy make dramatic improvement over the summer . (Disney duals-- Fargo camp especially --and just going to Fargo). Good wrestlers being around the best ones rubs off many times. Seen it time & again. New attitudes, habits, "that can be me" revelations.
the joy, esp the kids who break through, all the college coaches, ---- elite kid on elite kid, my rep vs yours, afterwards lets trade singlets, where else?.Fargo unfortunately isn't, may never be, what it once was. It tailed off after Buxton left Blair, and St Eds didnt have the same talent they did in the late 90's..early 2000 for quite a while. There were other factors of course...and you had a kid here or there who would do well, but Ohio was always a top 3 contender year after year after year.thats a great sign (and if Brecksville is sending alot too thats even better for ohio).

i dont go anymore but when late July comes around i miss Fargo , i miss it all, lol, the flies, the smell. the heat, big sky country, gung-ho,
? I know of MANY 18 year old seniors turning nineteen after the season who competed in Fargo. Maybe you're talking of double "hold backs" which are extremely rare.
Yes. Go over to the fargo thread.
