Big Mac attacks
It's still early in the season but after watching Canon-McMillan rip up North Allegheny Thursday, it's hard to see any team stopping them in the WPIAL. The Big Macs have strength through the lineup with the lightweights being the strength of the team.
Colton Shorts is blossoming now that he is at the right weight, 103. He wrestled up a lot last year because the Big Macs had a state champion in the making in Connor Schram at 103. Dalton Macri is in the same position this season, stuck in the same weight class as Shorts.
With so many strong wrestlers, it's easy to overlook Nick Catalano, who has put on weight and is much stronger. He is at 152 now, but will settle at 145 for the tournaments.
And Cody Klempay is a beast, adding 30 pounds without losing any quickness or agility.
How well the Big Macs do in the state team tournament will depend on how well their middleweights perform. Zach Thomas, Ian Binotto and Mark Dami need strong performances if the PIAA trophy is to end up in C-M's hands.

Shorts is tough, exciting. Glad he endured. No fun giving up weight, especially day after day and in some cases 15 pounds.
Big Macs do look good.
I will be rooting for colt shorts all year. Wrestling up for two years will make him tough to beat.
Thanks anonymous, appreciate that.

PCC just lost two starters Zymroz and Bradley for the year. Just give the WPIAL trophy to Cannon Mac. The real question is who will be 2nd and 3rd?
