Pennsylvania PIAA District XI
2009-2010 Season
High School Wrestling

Starting the 2009-10 Season

Editorial by Rans
Saturday December 12, 2009 1pm

Well, another season hurried along to us, or maybe it took it's sweet time, depending on what else you have going on. There were three significant events in my personal life that had my full attention this off-season, but only the last one affects the late start for the webpage. The first event goes way back to April when I was surprised and delighted to be inducted into the District XI Wrestling Hall of Fame for my contributions to District XI Wrestling. Again, I thank the committee for the consideration. The 2nd event has nothing to do with Wrestling as such, but our oldest daughter and her husband presented us with a beautiful Granddaughter in August. We are just thrilled! The last, and not so happy event was the November diagnosis that I have Lymphoma Cancer on my upper spinal cord. I started Chemo on Black Friday, and had my 2nd one just yesterday. The Doctors have given me a very good prognosis, and we are upbeat and positive. The reason I am telling you all this, is not for sympathy, it is in hope that you understand things might be slower this year, My "Live" broadcasts, like tonight's Easton/Parkland match will actually be live via TV. For non-broadcast matches I have arranged for some friends to email live results to me, but I could sure use lot's of others. If you have a web phone and want to help, email results to rans@enter.net. If you want it to be live, make sure I know ahead of time so I can prepare a page and look for your email.

Good luck to the wrestlers, their coaches, the parents and the fans for a fun and healthy 2009-10 season.

Rans.

A thought for fans...

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” - Theodore Roosevelt
