<p>momofwildchild - is your son planning on going to cornell? do you have any other kids there? also i'd bet that you can vouch that blair gets a lot of fans</p>
<p>My son is a hs junior. Cornell is high on the list. He is a runner, and has met with the coach. We're still early in the process.
Yes, wrestling gets a lot of fans at Blair and all the high schools and colleges in that western NJ and PA area. It is huge in Bethelem (Lehigh etc.)<br>
My daughter is a soph at Rice.
I looked at Cornell for myself back in the day,but didn't get in!</p>

<p>A little off topic but a plug for Cornell track ... Cornell & Penn used to have a program where every other year they jointly had a meet with Oxford ... alternating home sites ... so a varsity track guy went to England once during their 4 years and hosted an English opponent once also ... pretty cool event ... I'm not sure if they still do it but it might be worth checking into</p>
<p>Everyone used to go to wrestling matches at my school...but all the hot wrestlers graduated last year, so now less people are interested. But it's fun to watch :)</p>
<p>lol, i've actually had girls tell me that's why they come to my matches. But to be honest i wish more people would come because they really like the sport.</p>
<p>I like the matches for the sport, but it's hard to ignore all the hot wrestlers! :p Except for when they end up starving themselves to make weight class. Then they get a sickly look for a couple months!</p>
<p>Ahhh I know, I feel so bad for them!!! It's so weird at my school, all the guys will be like "no drinking, no candy, I'm on a diet" and the chics are like bring it on! Hahah...suckers! :p</p>
<p>And I do really like the sport...my bro was a wrestler so I've kind of been conditioned to love it! :D</p>
