Was wondering that... about how many other schools have that many wrestlers qualifying. That is very impressive!

This is really cool.

 

[RU93]

It wasn't long ago when we had trouble getting in couple kids in the nationals. Now, we are kicking butt left and right, and beating nebraska and lehigh to name a couple... Hope our football team also can have this type of success soon.

 

[OTBOTOR]

It's R time!!

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

What an amazing season!

 

[newell138]

That to me is just as impressive as the womens soccer team making the final 4.

 

[RUonBrain]

Good stuff!
Bring it home!

 

[mdk01]

Very impressive but it needs to be sustained. Any word on this year's recruiting?

 

[patk89]

Love hearing this! I would expect several of our guys to do quite well and challenge for All American status with Ashnault having a real chance at a national championship. Finals at MSG!

 

[red sail]

Great job ! Go RU!

 

[Abro1975]

Best recruiting class ever for Wrestling. Probably a top 5-10 nationally.

[Ole Cabbagehead]

6 of the 7 guys coming in were state finalists this year. 2 2x time state champs. It's all good.

 

[rutger80]

Fantastic stuff! Go RU!

 

[76Scarlet]

Great news!!! This is exactly what we need to make a statement as a new member in the B10. Good luck to all R wrestlers!! Go Knights!!!RU!!

 

[knightfan7]

6 of the 7 guys coming in were state finalists this year. 2 2x time state champs. It's all good.

3 NJ State Champs, 3 Second Place (2 NJ and 1 Ohio), and 1 Third Place.

Seriously? Where are you seeing that?

In our hearts...

Where are you Not seeing that? - : )

One source had you in the T75 which shocked me. Can't remember site and no idea if valid.

 

[LetsGoRUwrestling]

Definitely a top 10 class:

#2 Senior 220lber in USA Matt Correnti
#5 Senior 195lber in USA Kevin Mulligan
#7 Senior 170lber in USA Joe Grello
#11 Senior 138lber in USA Michael Van Brill
#12 Senior 170lber in USA Brett Donner

*plus multiple NJ place winner (runner up 2016) 132lber Brandon Paetzell and multiple Ohio placer 126lber Alex Mackall

Anybody who doesn't think this will be a top 10 class doesn't know the difference between a half nelson and Willie Nelson!

Lol. 75 out of 75 teams? Get outta here. Also, you can't be tied for last place -- that would be impossible.

Win Magazine had it as the #3 class.

[LetsGoRUwrestling]

Also that's a top 3/6 class and RU returns 8 NCAA Championship qualifiers so they are young...Is there any team in America that will return 8 NCAA Qualifiers?...probably not!

year before Goodale took over RU had zero qualifiers

Let's Go RU!

Come on. You just posted this ^^^^ so someone would list the recruit rankings showing PSU #1.

Well played....well played.

Again, I thought the site was way off. Thanks for the link.

 

[RUtrumpet92]

Well - it is definitely a top 75 class. We can all agree on that.

FANTASTIC job to see all 10 advance to the national championships! Well done, team!

 

[R U Crazy]

Hall, Manville Suriano....
Ugggggggg
PSU will be nasty "again"

There are only 75 wrestling programs. Quit trolling.

Swear to God man, not trolling.

Found it. Obviously I misunderstood what the T75 was referring to - individual ranking vs team ranking. Don't know when I was looking at it or how much I had to drink either.

You are thinking of our football team.

I'm new to following wrestling but even i see what lack of credibility you've earned....troll

Untill now i didn't think so...are you that dense?

Give me a break. I admitted my mistake. Why the hell would I come here to troll your wrestling program. That makes absolutely no sense at all.
