All Star Weekend On Tap
All Star Sunday!
Willie Saylor, Editor

We have a great day of high school wrestling line-up for today. Always a heated rivalry, All-Star teams from New York and New Jersey will face each other at 1PM ET. Later in the day, one of the most prestigious events on the high school circuit, the Dapper Dan, takes place up 4PM ET.

The New York Team is absolutely loaded. The Empire State’s lineup 15-man (they include a 99lb class) consists of 14 State Champs, including 8th grade phenom Yianni Diakomihalis, and a Runner-Up.
