I feel like ecp is like that with all sports. When I was there from 93-97 it was basketball. My 4 years at prep they won a state championship and lost 2. One being to koby Bryant and lower meron my junior year. My freshman year they were loaded jed Ryan (Penn), booker Coleman (Wisconsin) Julian blank (la salle).

I feel like ECP goes on these little mini runs in wrestling where they’re great - your era, the Starocci/Deboe/Van Dee/Crosby teams, the Kevin Darkus run back in the day.

Jeffries I think beat Jamarr in the Manheim final and Jamarr returned the favor at Ironman maybe? They ended up at 130 and 135 for the postseason in ‘96 and I think both won state titles? And Loper and Bryan Snyder also had some battles, that I think continued into college, where they were both All Americans. Snyder is absolutely haunted by the old overtime without system - he lost in rideouts as a sophomore in quarterfinals, then as a junior he and Loper were clearly the two best guys at 125, but met in semis, and rode him out to win 1-1 in OTRO and went on to win a state title. Great, super high level match between two of the best kids in the mid ‘90s. Then in college, famously, Snyder was a two-time NCAA finalist and lost in OTRO BOTH TIMES (!!). No human being closer to winning multiple NCAA titles without having any than Bryan. All time great guy, who will be the next head coach at Nebraska when Mark Manning retires, he’s been the top assistant there forever. Got to corner Burroughs at the Olympics, he’s done just fine for himself. But man was that Loper match in ‘96 an ominous sign of things to come.

I would love to pick the state champ project up, maybe the kick in the butt I need. I’ll have some time this summer - the 2013 SJP entry is sitting in a draft folder half done. I need to commit to picking it back up.

I always looked fwd to reading your state football projects. I was hoping you didn't give up on them. I know you've been doing 6A/4A but could I make a special request for the 2017 ECP team whenever you get time.

Yes Terrance Jeffries was a complete stud on the mat. When I was in highschool at Erie prep we had some great wrestling teams. Terrance Jeffries, rob loper, and Dorian Hegar were all state champs during my time at ECP. Rover any chance you'll resume the state football project? I used to look forward to reading them and was looking fwd to the recent state champs. I believe you left off 2013 St joes prep team.

Benjamin tried to play football at Clarion but I don't remember him doing much. He looked the part but he seemed kinda slow.

He came back after a few years off but was never the same. He was a good ball player at clarion and he also played semi pro ball for the Erie freeze the indoor football arena team. He was one of thier captains in early 2000's. He was unbelievable in highschool player though. Those central teams in 93 94 were the best teams out of the city including the 91 Vincent team.
