Pitt Wrestling Outlasts Edinboro, 19-16, Claims Back-To-Back EWL Dual Titles

http://www.pittsburghpanthers.com/sports...11aab.html

You guys got lucky against the Mountaineers, which is what gave you the title...

I wish WVU had wrestled against Pitt like they did yesterday in the Mountaineers' 46-0 win over Cleveland State (4 pins). But these things happen...

We finished 7-1 in the EIWA which in theory means at worst we're regular season co-champs.

Rutgers should join the EWL and wrestle with the big boys...

That would be a good thing certainly. We already wrestle you guys every year or close to it bit. As long as we can keep the three good programs (also happen to be schools we have real athletic history with) from the EIWA in Lehigh, Army and Navy it would work for me just fine. Besides we have a top 10 program the last couple years under Scott Goodale.

Does Rutgers consider its association with Lehigh, Army, and Navy as being more important than its association with 2 fellow BEast members? It's decisions like these that continue to point out the philosophical differences among the former eastern independents that have kept us from having an all-sports conference for the last 40 years...

Ahh I meant to say as regulars on the schedule, but yea I get your point. One area where there's cooperation amongst the Big East schools with programs is women's gymnastics as the league there is basically all the ACC and Big East programs that offer the sport.

We need much more cooperation like that. Right now there's almost none...

How so? Because WVu didn't wrestle their best?

WVU wrestled pretty good against Pitt. But they could have done better...

Maybe the Pitt wrestlers had something to do with that. I'm just saying.

Oh, I'm sure they did. But these things happen...
