A Sea Of Red

Intermat is saying Jordan Conaway verbaled to Liberty wrestling...

This kid is a stud...wrestled 103 at PIAA states last year (a loaded class I might add) and placed 3rd. Named wrestler of the year by York Dispatch, won district, regionals last year, plus many more events.

WRESTLER OF THE YEAR
Jordan Conaway, New Oxford: When Conaway steps on the mats next season to start his senior year, he will already be one of the most successful grapplers in school history.
Conaway had a 43-2 record his junior year in a season that saw him win the Phillipsburg and Conestoga Valley tournaments at 112 pounds.

He then shifted to 103 pounds to claim the Osceola and Top Gun Tournament titles. He also finished second at the New Oxford tournament at 103. Conaway continued his domination at 103 by winning a Section 5 crown, as well as District 3 and South Central Regional gold.

Conaway completed the year with a third-place finish at the PIAA championships. He is the first wrestler in program history to reach 100 wins in his junior year.

How short is this kid? I was 125 lbs in high school at 5'9" and I was a twig...

Flamesbball I will figure you know nothing of the sport of wrestling...(no slight to you honest)

This young man could be small (5'6"-5'9" or so) but strong as a horse...walking around weight is probably in the 120lb to 135lb range depending on the season of year and cutting weight during in season wrestling. My guess is Jordan will wrestle 119lb weight class this year maybe 112 but I think for his college career 119 is the way to go. Alot will depend where he feels freshest in tough compition from cutting weight.

Wrestlers train for strength not bulk so the leaner the muscles the better...

You wanna see him, here is a video of him on flo from PA states...this kid has seen the big lights there 9,000+ in attendance every year... He lost 7-6 last minute to the eventual champ.

Thanks for the links. Coach Castro clearly has attracted the attention of talent in the Pennsylvania-Jersey corridor.

Jordan Conaway has a knack for making good decisions. Whether it’s on the wrestling mat where he’s won a pair of PIAA medals, or the in the classroom where he carries a 3.9 GPA, his instincts rarely lead him astray.
The New Oxford senior relied on those instincts again Monday when he signed his National Letter of Intent to attend Liberty University, where he’ll further his athletic and academic pursuits while also staying true to his spiritual beliefs.
