Warwick wrestler Mitchell Witghtman, NYS 160lb champion, heading to Boston University.
Congratulations and Best of luck to Warwick Youth Wrestling Alumni, Mitch Wightman, as he continues his wrestling career at D1 school Boston University in the fall. Mitchell won the 2011 NYS D1 championship at 160lbs, the first State Champ in the history of Warwick's wrestling program. We wish him all the best in all his future endeavors.
The following is an article by wrestlingreport.com - read below:
Boston U 2012 Starting Lineup Projection
by Allen Brown » Sun May 08, 2011 7:40 am
125- Last year’s starter at this weight, Bubba McGinley, returns. McGinley is out of Central Bucks West High School (PA), and will be a sophomore this coming fall. This past season, competing as a true freshman, McGinley placed third in the 2011 CAA Tournament, and completed his rookie campaign with a W/L record of 17-9.
133- Two-time NCAA qualifier, Fred Santaite, returns. Santaite, a former New Jersey state champ from Allendale, will be a senior this coming fall. Santaite gained a national reputation at the 2010 NCAA’s, after he decisioned Cornell’s Troy Nickerson and went on to finish top 12 in the nation at 125 pounds. This past season Santaite moved up to 133 pounds, placed third in the CAA’s, went 1-2 at the 2011 NCAA’s, and completed the year at 21-7. Mr. Santaite is aiming for a podium finish at the 2012 NCAA Tournament.
141- Our inside BU source expects incoming freshman, Tyler Scotton, to start at this weight. This past season Scotton placed second in the 2011 New Jersey State Tournament, competing at 135 pounds for Willingboro.
149- Nester Taffur (Jr/NJ), who has started at this weight the past two seasons for BU, returns. This past season Taffur placed sixth in the Penn State Open, wrestled well in dual meets, had an off-song CAA tournament (dnp), but completed the year with a solid record of 24-15.
157- Look for Nick Tourville to start at this weight class. Tourville is a former Minnesota state high school champion, who started at 157 this past season as a true freshman. He soldiered through the year picking up 15 wins and a ton of Div I experience.
165- This is another weight class where our inside source expects an incoming freshman to start. Keep an eye on Mitchell Wightman. This past season he won the New York State tournament, competing at 160 pounds for Warwick Valley.
Last year Kyle Czarnecki started for BU at 165 pounds. Czarnecki, a former Illinois state high school champion, will be a junior at BU this coming season, and has a total of 27 career wins in college. Our source notes that Czarnecki now is too big to compete at 165, and likely will help out at 174/184 in 2012.
174- Hunter Meys is one of BU’s best grapplers. Meys is a former multi-time New York state champ out of the Shenendehowa High School stable. He has started for BU two seasons at 174 pounds, and will be a fourth-year junior this coming fall.
This past season Meys was runnerup at the Keystone Classic, finished second at the CAA’s, went 2-2 at the 2011 NCAA Tournament (including a 6-5 win over ninth-seeded Ethen Lofthouse of Iowa), and completed the year at 26-9. Hunter Meys is very capable of an All-American finish this coming year at the NCAA’s.
184- This weight likely belongs to the athletically gifted Alex Najjar, who will be a sophomore this coming fall. Mr. Najjar is a former New England high school champ (Shawsheen Tech), who went 58-0 his senior year (2010). The coaching staff is high on Najjar and describes him as being very hungry for success at the Div I level.
197- This weight will be manned by John Hall (Sr/CA). Big John is a two-time NCAA qualifier, who is poised to gain All-American honors in 2012. This past season, competing at 197 pounds, Hall won the CAA’s, went 2-2 at the 2011 NCAA Tournament, and racked up a W/L record of 21-5 for the year. By the way, Hall’s two wins at the 2011 NCAA’s were by pin over Oregon State’s Chad Hanke and by decision over Michigan’s Anthony Biondo.
285- Kevin Innis returns at heavy weight. Innis, who will be a sophomore this coming fall, was 2010 New Jersey state runnerup at 215 pounds, competing for St. Peter’s Prep. This past season, starting for BU at hwt as a true freshman, he grabbed sixth place at the Keystone Classic, and won 16 bouts on the year. The BU coaching staff describes Innis as being a very hard worker – often the “first in and last out” of the wrestling room for practice sessions

Mr. Santaite is aiming for a podium finish at the 2012 NCAA Tournament.
141- Our inside BU source expects incoming freshman, Tyler Scotton, to start at this weight. This past season Scotton placed second in the 2011 New Jersey State Tournament, competing at 135 pounds for Willingboro.
149- Nester Taffur (Jr/NJ), who has started at this weight the past two seasons for BU, returns. This past season Taffur placed sixth in the Penn State Open, wrestled well in dual meets, had an off-song CAA tournament (dnp), but completed the year with a solid record of 24-15.
157- Look for Nick Tourville to start at this weight class. Tourville is a former Minnesota state high school champion, who started at 157 this past season as a true freshman. He soldiered through the year picking up 15 wins and a ton of Div I experience.
165- This is another weight class where our inside source expects an incoming freshman to start. Keep an eye on Mitchell Wightman. This past season he won the New York State tournament, competing at 160 pounds for Warwick Valley.
Last year Kyle Czarnecki started for BU at 165 pounds. Czarnecki, a former Illinois state high school champion, will be a junior at BU this coming season, and has a total of 27 career wins in college. Our source notes that Czarnecki now is too big to compete at 165, and likely will help out at 174/184 in 2012.
174- Hunter Meys is one of BU’s best grapplers. Meys is a former multi-time New York state champ out of the Shenendehowa High School stable. He has started for BU two seasons at 174 pounds, and will be a fourth-year junior this coming fall.
This past season Meys was runnerup at the Keystone Classic, finished second at the CAA’s, went 2-2 at the 2011 NCAA Tournament (including a 6-5 win over ninth-seeded Ethen Lofthouse of Iowa), and completed the year at 26-9. Hunter Meys is very capable of an All-American finish this coming year at the NCAA’s.
184- This weight likely belongs to the athletically gifted Alex Najjar, who will be a sophomore this coming fall. Mr. Najjar is a former New England high school champ (Shawsheen Tech), who went 58-0 his senior year (2010). The coaching staff is high on Najjar and describes him as being very hungry for success at the Div I level.
197- This weight will be manned by John Hall (Sr/CA). Big John is a two-time NCAA qualifier, who is poised to gain All-American honors in 2012. This past season, competing at 197 pounds, Hall won the CAA’s, went 2-2 at the 2011 NCAA Tournament, and racked up a W/L record of 21-5 for the year. By the way, Hall’s two wins at the 2011 NCAA’s were by pin over Oregon State’s Chad Hanke and by decision over Michigan’s Anthony Biondo.
285- Kevin Innis returns at heavy weight. Innis, who will be a sophomore this coming fall, was 2010 New Jersey state runnerup at 215 pounds, competing for St. Peter’s Prep. This past season, starting for BU at hwt as a true freshman, he grabbed sixth place at the Keystone Classic, and won 16 bouts on the year. The BU coaching staff describes Innis as being a very hard worker – often the “first in and last out” of the wrestling room for practice sessions

Novice/JV: 6:00p check-in. Matches begin at 6:30 and run until ~8:30'ish
