The lack of participation is insane. Mount Union was just up here on Tuesday. Mount Union doesn't half-ass their sports. From the entry-level on up they are working based off of how varsity is working and they never have issues with numbers.
They sent seven kids to wrestle. And it's not just wrestling that's an issue as their JH football team was almost non-existent this past year.
That's the kinda shit I expect from small D6/9 schools like West Branch, Tussey Mountain, Glendale, where nobody lives and the kids who live there would rather do anything else, but I didn't expect that from Mount Union.
If I go to Redbank Valley next month and experience the same, I'll sound a full-blown alarm on youth sports participation.
