Klempay, Shorts pick colleges
Two Canon-McMillan wrestlers - heavyweight Cody Klempay and middleweight Colton Shorts - have accepted scholarship offers from Division I programs.
Klempay received a scholarship from the University of North Carolina and Shorts from Cal Poly.
Klempay was a third-place finisher in the PIAA Championships last season, posting a 47-1 record. His only loss came in the heavyweight semifinals of the state tournament.
North Carolina is coached by former Council Rock state champion C.D. Mock, and Cary Kolat and former Waynesburg and Pitt wrestler Drew Headlee are assistant coaches.
Klempay chose UNC over Pitt, Penn State and Clarion.
Shorts became the first wrestler in Canon-McMillan history to win 50 matches in a season, going 50-2. He placed third in the PIAA Championships at 103, losing in the semifinals to eventual state champion Billy Rappo of Council Rock South.

Ed! do you really have to get on every single blog job starts and cry. You were given the right to appeal and the decision is up to the PIAA.
Joe maybe you should consider deleting entries that have absolutely nothing to do with the subject matter.

Cody...You know the story. His dad moved him to another district and cost him his Jr year.
Get a life
Congrats to Klempay and Shorts on two great high school careers; Awesome job!
8:42PM; pleeease let these boys have their spotlight without bringing up your personal issues; there are plenty of your blogs for you to continue your anonymous whimpering.
Congrats to the two!
P.S. when are the preseason rankings joe?
That makes five current d-1 CM wrestlers on a scholarship. They are homegrown.
I thought Shorts is from Mt. Lebo? Like Brownlee.
That right! 5 homegrown and we don't need any anyone hitchin a ride on this bus. Its going to Hershey without any hired guns or freeloaders.
Congrats to colt and cody watched these young men come through highschool and deserve the chance to show there talent at a higher level did i mention (division 1) job well done GOOD LUCK!
Congrats Cody and Colt. This is your time to shine and win that Hershey Gold. Well deserved guys. As for you other people crying still about transfers and what not, get over it. He is not at your school. Keep crying wont change a thing.
