no harm meant, just want to see some guys I grew up wrestling around. As for the D1 guys, multiple guys from my school have gone D1, My team mate started 4 years in D1, just happens to be the guy Mena wrestled for his 4th title We also have two guys who AA and placed...........one D1 national champ from savanna Mark Massery

Don't get me wrong I am not saying no good guys in class A. My point was a great match has to be just that a great match. I would not put Albert White's 4th title on must see list becasue it was not a great match. Even though the kid he beat was a D1 wrestler and beat him that year. All classes have great wrestlers but not all classes have lots of great finals.

Byron Benion is a coach and has some kids I saw him about a year ago. His jr year he did awesome! For some reason at state he just didn't wrestle like himself at all. I think maybe he was hurt. did not place.

Now that was a great match!!

Yes, there is a brother that previously coached at Leyden. He no longer coaches wrestling.

As a side note, Ernest Benion's coach, Bill Winke, is a very good of my uncle. He looks young in this video. He is now a football coach at Northcentral College in Naperville.

Coach Wienke was a great coach. I played football and wrestled for him. Romeoville was a room full of warriors, Weinke kept the intensity level on 10!!
