I was most impressed with how dominant we were. My kids gave up only four points all night and two came on escapes where we let them up. We're battle tested, rested and healthy.

The WPIAL runner-up actually has an easier road to the PIAA title match.

He's a very dedicated kid. Most impressive is, whether Donnie wins or loses, he's cheering on the other kids from the bench and that takes class.

It's a shame it happened. It was out of frustration more than anything. Fortunately, no one panicked after we gave up those extra points. And Donnie did a phenomenal job to get it back.

We're really happy right now. We all geared toward peaking this weekend, and we did. We were a little slow (Friday), but today, everybody was firing on all cylinders.

This time we'll have Lee and Joe in the lineup. That's four WPIAL titles that weren't in the lineup last time. I think we're as good as any team in Pennsylvania.

We started off a little slow, but I thought the guys wrestled well. Outside of Allen (Park, at 119), everyone's still in it. We've got nine guys still wrestling, and five in the semis.

We're healthier now than we've been all season. So, we're looking forward to the matches.
