In it he lists the class as:

The jewels of the class are twin brothers Andrew and Dylan Alton from Central Mountain High School in Mill Hall, Pa. They were ranked Nos. 2 and 8, overall, by InterMat. Joining them are ranked wrestlers Sam Sherlock (No. 22) from West Mifflin HIgh School in West Mifflin, Pa., Dirk Cowburn (No. 54) from Coudersport High School in Coudersport, Pa., Hank Stinson (No. 70) from Eastern Regional High school in Voorhees, N.J., Frank Martellotti from Shady Side Academy in Pittsburgh, Pa., Seth Beitz from Juniata High School in Mifflintown, Pa., Nick Ruggear from Oxford High School in Oxford, Pa., and Cameron Kelly from Pittsford Mendon High School in Pittsford, N.Y

One thing continues to trouble me – what about Nate Morgan?

A month ago we saw Morgan, from McCook Nebraska, posing with his family at a press conference he called, ostensibly signing a national letter of intent to come to Penn State. Yet we’ve never heard a peep out of Sanderson or anyone else at PSU.

Is this kid coming here or not?

Penn State’s recruiting efforts never stopped when Andrew and Dylan Alton, Dirk Cowburn and Sam Sherlock faxed letters of intent to the wrestling office last fall.

By officially landing two-time New Jersey state champion Hank Stinson, Shady Side Academy’s Frank Martellotti, Juniata’s Seth Beitz, Oxford’s Nick Ruggear and Cameron Kelly of Pittsford (N.Y.), head coach Cael Sanderson added five wrestlers with combined 697-123 high school records to his first full recruiting class

Whether he was ordering bacon and eggs or visiting his barber, the older brother of Penn State’s celebrated first-year wrestling coach couldn’t escape the chatter.

“Everywhere I would go, whether it was getting breakfast or a haircut, people were saying they can’t wait for 2010-11,” associate head coach Cody Sanderson said. “People are excited about the recruits that are going to be in our lineup. But we left it at that. We owed it to the program to keep our focus on 2009-10.”

Such was the conundrum facing the start of Cael Sanderson’s tenure.

The future looked promising. But the present demanded unwavering attention.

MILL HALL, Pa. — Andrew Alton had to take a couple seconds to think about it.

In his four-year career, what hasn’t the Central Mountain senior accomplished?

State titles? Check. Regional titles? Four of them, to be exact.

The long laundry list continues on for miles and miles. Honestly, if you laid out his resume and accomplishments, it would probably stretch along the concrete pavement of Interstate 80, through the red lights on Route 15 and right into the doorway of the Giant Center in Hershey, the final stop on an amazing high school road.

That’s why it took the nationally-ranked grappler a few seconds to think of one or two words to sum up his remarkable career.

“Amazing,” he said, “and memorable.”
