@reger3 I've taught clinics with Wade- he only won 2- it might have been 3 but he was banned from the championships one year because of an eligibility dispute over his transfer from East Stroudsburg U as a freshmen- he'll tell you the same. still one of the best!
Carmina Burana by Karl Orff (inventor of the Orffs Musical Instrument Course) Carmina Burana is a collection of medieval poems, for which Orff composed the Music in the 1930s.
wade schalles was at the wrestling camp im going to.(not in the same year) greats like wade, bruce baumgartner, stephen biedrycki and mark cagle were there.
He won the 150lb title in 72 in Division I and II.
He repeated at 158 lbs in 73 in both Divisions.
He was hampered by a rule that barred freshmen and seniors from competing. He would likely have repeated in 74
You must not be able to read. He won 2 titles in '72 & 2 more in '73. By virtue of winning the Division II title he was eligible to compete in the national tournament in Division I. I believe Clarion, in 1974, with all 5000 students, entered Division I in wrestling and still are.
Wade Schalles is strong because of good technique. His style is very similar to many of the great old time "leg wrestlers" of pro-wrestlings early days-being able to use their legs like another set of arms to control,stretch, and pin an opponent. the great examples of the style include joe stecher, clarence eklund, ad santel, and john pesek. dick cardinal and danny hodge spring to mind more recently. wade schalles was an amateur who wrestled like a "pro".
I've read that the Olympic style of wrestling that was practiced before WWI was essentially Catch wrestling, without chokes, or strangles. If that's the case, modern amateur wrestling just needs to work it's way back and, adopt all the techniques that were banned over the years. You would then have the basis of a really good submission grappling art.
Are there any DVD's of Wade's two NCAA Div 1 title bouts and or his pin of John "Bimbo" Chatman in the 1969 PIAA final?
Chatman was never the same, had a mediocre college career at Pitt. He had never lost any bout ever until being pinned by Wade as a junior at Washington High School.
wrestling is bout focus mental pride nd about skill not ur coach i wrestle super agressive nd mi coach couldnt make it 2 regionals with out me its not about the coach
So you basically taught youself how to wrestle? You won in high school and, college without the aide of a coach? Somehow, I doubt it.
Also, when your typing on a keyboard, you don't need to poretend your doing a text message. It looks lazy and, makes you look ignorant of the English langauge.
Wade Schalles was a great NCAA champ but won only 2 Div I titles, not 4 as implied here. His 1969 pin of never-beaten John "Bimbo" Chatman in the PIAA finals was one of the most sensational wins in hx.
He may have won 2 College Div titles. Am too lazy to go back to the NCAA Wrestling Guides.
Is he considered a funk wrestler?

Chatman wrestled for Trinity High School in Washington, PA; no one in the entire universe seemed to care.
The PIAA refuses to make the old PIAA finals available even thought it has them "in the basement."
