Coleman Scott, a former PIAA and NCAA champion, will be inducted into the Southwestern Pennsylvania Wrestling Hall of Fame at the Pittsburgh Wrestling Classic Sunday. Scott, who won his NCAA title at Oklahoma State University, was a three-time PIAA champion at Waynesburg High School.
Joining Scott in the hall are Kurt Brenner, a state champion from Freedom; Ken Nellis, a state champion from Shaler; and Steve Snyder, a longtime wrestling official.
He wrestled at Oklahoma State.
ReplyDeleteScott won his title at Oklahoma State and did so with the fastest pin in NCAA Division I Championship history. You are thinking of Josh Koscheck.
ReplyDeleteI know he wrestled at Oklahoma Stat. My mind is melting.
ReplyDeleteScott wrestled at Okla.St,and Koscheck wrestled at Edinboro.In any case a pretty great honor to be inducted into at a great event. By the way C-M Fans another pair of brothers from Cbg will now have wrestled at the classic come Sunday. Nick and Mike Catalano. Myself and my big bro Rich, and Keilan and Romy O`Daniel. Not braggin just think it`s pretty cool that these families as well as others get to be apart of this event and i just want to acknowledge some of the great people that i`ve had the pleasure of knowing and calling freinds. Anyway Congrats to Coleman Scott and the rest of the HOF Class. Lookin foward to Sunday, Should be a great time.
ReplyDeleteYep both Coleman and Koscheck are national champions that wrestled for Waynesburg. Has Canon-Mac ever had a national champ?
ReplyDeleteSylvester Terkay was a national champion from canonsburg. Albert Miles of Canon McMillan also won a national title a few years ago at pitt johnstown
ReplyDeleteMiles was in division ii
ReplyDeleteBucky Maughn and Joe Soloman were NCAA champions, from CM
ReplyDeleteWaynesburg's other Div 1 national champ was Tom Alberts. Wrestled for Pitt in the mid 60's.
ReplyDeleteAnon so what that Albert won a d-2 title. Thats a hell of an accomplishment. A title is a title.
ReplyDeleteAgree with Dami. re. anon post 4:48 national champ at college level div 1 or div 2, how is that not an awesome accomplishment. We should be applauding ALL the W.Pa wrestlers that win a title, not just your locals.
