Better late than never?

The season is only a few days old, but I'm already behind. I hoped to have the season previews ready by this time, but haven't been able to get all of the info, as I was out of the area for the past 10 days.
Working on tracking down lineups for all teams and hoping to take a look at last weekend's results as soon as possible.
As I said before, it's going to be very tough to keep the blog updated this year, but I will do my best. Please be patient.

The best resource for Pennsylvania wrestling

It's not wrestling season until I get a copy of Tom Elling's Pennsylvania Wrestling Handbook.
Luckily, I was able to pick up a copy of it last week, thanks to Rich Vetock, who literally and figuratively went the extra mile for me.
If you have never picked up a copy of the book, you're really missing out. You can order one here. I've gotten a new one each season for years and can't imagine covering the sport without it. I carry it with me to virtually every match and use it all of the time.
It's a great resource, both for the new season and the history of the sport. Although it's labeled "Pennsylvania Wrestling Handbook" it does offer info on wrestlers from neighboring states as well.
If you are a fan - and I assume you are if you're reading this blog - pick up a copy of the book. It's well worth it.
