Merry New Year
Merry New Year everyone! I hope 2007 finds you all happy, healthy and ready for some wrestling.
Minor correction to the Colonial Conference Streak info. Paulsboro had 296 consecutive conference wins coming into 2006/07 not 297 as previously posted. Honest error - the Gateway win in 1971 was counted amongst the wins when in fact they were not in the Colonial at that time - they were still in the Olympic. Details, details, details. Actually this really works out from a fan point of view because if all goes well, Paulsboro will get 298 (297 came against Sterling) against Audubon tomorrow night, 299 against Haddon Heights in Heights and then #300 will be at the Conference Quad (how appropriate) at Home on the 20th (Lindenwold, Haddonfield and Township). Excellent. I'd much rather see the Raiders reach that milestone at home than on the road.
Congratulations again to all the winners at the brick Tournament and to all that participated. The fellas represented the Red well. I'm really into this murderer's row - Cucinotta, Greenwald, Hodges, Silvestro and Hester. If only they still started the matches at 103 - boy oh boy.
So the Raiders face the Wave tomorrow night. Audubon has a new Head Coach, Don Seybold, who coincidently grew up literally in my backyard. Nice guy, nice family. I hope he and the Wave do well this season (except of course tomorrow - well, they can do well, just not that well). I don't know anything about their line-up other than what I read on the forum so I have no comment there. I'm sure they have a couple of bright spots but I doubt they're going to be any match for the fellas in Red.
My plan is to be at the match, with my grandson. My grand daughter has yet to make her grand entrance - she better get this show on the road. Doesn't she realize its wrestling season - sheesh.
