Month: February 2021

In our final days of our 2021 season we will highlight each of our 3 Seniors to thank them for the time they have given to our program. None of us saw this year going the way it has, but it does not change that each of these young men have gone to extraordinary lengths to help our program accomplish the feats it has during their time with us.

Some of the program highlights which our Class of 2021 has helped us accomplish:

Back to Back OCIAA Division 1 Champions
3x NYSPHSAA All-Scholar Team
Ranked top 20 by the NYSSWA in 2020 and 2019
3x ECSDM Superintendent’s Team Sportsmanship Award
Elk’s Lodge Fundraising Champions
OCIAA Student Athlete Community Service Award
65-17 Dual Meet record

Middletown Head Wrestling Coach
Jason Lichtenstein

102 lbs – Manny Saenz

Manny is one of the few remaining members of our original youth wrestling group, The Mighty Middies! He has been a mainstay in our lineup since he came out for the team. Manny has been our 99/104lber each of the 3 years he was a starter for us. Through his dedication to his class work Manny has helped the team earn the NYSPHSAA All-Scholar Award by being an All-Scholar Athlete himself! In the 2019-2020 season Manny took home the Somers Wrestling Tournament Championship, was one of the top ranked 99lbers in Section IX and helped lead our team to a 21-3 overall ranking, and OCIAA title and a Top 15 ranking by the New York Sports Reporters! Coming into the 2021 season Manny had his goals set on winning his first Section Title and continuing to add to his All-Scholar Awards! Manny had a career record of 62 wins and 29 losses.

The Coaches from within our program would like to thank Manny for his commitment to our program and wish him the best of luck as he graduates and moves forward in life.

118lbs – Kenny Santiago

Kenny has been a key part of our line-up since his freshman year of High School, he has stepped up on multiple occasions to help the team when and where we needed him in the line-up. Sometimes Kenny would be put in difficult situations where we needed him to go out and battle for the team, we knew we could depend on him to step on the mat and give us 100%. Kenny has an ever growing desire to be the best he can and it shows in his efforts! As a sophomore Kenny won the JV Section Championship, during the 2020 season he was our starting 113lber and was a huge piece of our team’s success. Coming into his Senior year he had set goals to qualify for the NYS Wrestling Championships and even through the Covid lockdowns was finding ways to get mat time and train towards this goal! In our shortened practice season Kenny has been a leader in the room and a great role model for our younger athletes. This season has been very tough mentally and for the younger Middies to see his attitude and efforts in the room will assuredly help them in their own developments! Kenny had a career record of 61 wins and 28 losses.

The Coaches from within our program would like to thank Kenny for his commitment to our program and wish him the best of luck as he graduates and moves forward in life.

160lbs – Justin Santiago

Justin has been a part of our program since Jr High and has routinely been seen as one of our hardest working Middies! His positive attitude and no nonsense work ethic have been admired by all of the coaches who have had the privilege of coaching him. Last season Justin set a goal to win the JV Section Championships and did just that! It is always great to see a young man set out to reach his goals and then have the opportunity to do so. Justin was a Captain of our 2020 JV team which won the JV Championship for the first time in team history! It is clear that his leadership and work ethic helped lead our young JV squad to these accomplishments! Our JV team had never won a tournament until 2020, having won the Jeff Cuilty Duals and the JV Championship made it a banner year for them, Justin’s leadership was clearly a huge factor in this! Entering the 2021 season Justin had set a goal to medal at the Section IX Championships and we know his efforts would have led him there! Justin had a career Varsity record of 8 wins and 0 losses.

The Coaches from within our program would like to thank Justin for his commitment to our program and wish him the best of luck as he graduates and moves forward in life.

Perennial state power Monroe Woodbury was not able to compete this season so let’s take a moment to recognize the seniors who missed out on their last opportunity to wrestle for the Crusaders.

Congratulations to Eldred graduate Noah Curreri for qualifying for his second Division 2 NCAA Championships. Curreri wrestles at 174 pounds for Queens University in Charlotte, NC. Noah punched his ticket to the NCAA’s by placing 2nd at 174 in the Super Regional II Tournament on Saturday in Franklin Springs, GA. Curreri made it to the semis where he dropped a 10-4 decision to the eventual champion Caleb Spears from Newberry and then wrestled back to take true second. Only the top two finishers qualified for the NCAA’s which take place on March 12-13 in St. Louis, MO. Curreri, who is now a senior at Queens University, was a 2X state place winner in high school and was a state finalist in his senior year. Congrats Noah!

Section 9 had two other wrestlers in the field at the tournament. Pine Bush graduate Nick Florin, who wrestles for Coker College, went 1-2 at 174 and his teammate Matt Shields, a graduate of Onteora, went 1-2 wrestling at 184 pounds!

Matt Martinelli
Matt Martinelli has been a continuously positive presence on the mat for Burke Wrestling. His hard work is only out matched by his mental toughness. Starting wrestling as a sophomore takes a lot of bravery and Matt has never backed down from a challenge. It has been a pleasure having him on the team. We wish him luck with his future plans in the Merchant Marines.

Gianna Valen
“Gianna is our lone senior this year for the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley wrestling team. Gianna joined the wrestling program last year and wrestled in the “Queen of the Mat” tournament in Copiague where she placed 4th overall. Gianna was not able to finish her junior season due to an injury. However, Gianna continued to show up to the practices and was a great teammate with the Varsity wrestlers. She was also a good mentor to the younger wrestlers who were in the modified program. She would speak with them about the moves that they were working on and making sure that they had proper placement when executing the move. Gianna also went with the team to cheer on her teammates during the Female Division Section 9 Tournament as well as the Male Section 9 Tournament. We all know that Gianna was excited to return to the mat for her senior season and although her season was cut short she will always be a part of the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley program. On behalf of the entire coaching staff from the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley team, we wanted to say “Thank you for the countless hours that you put into this program and all that you did for this program.”. We wish you nothing but the best in your future!”

Coach David Mellan

As many of you already know, there will not be a NYSPHSAA Wrestling Championship this season. However, thanks to Frank Popolizio and his tireless efforts, we will still have the opportunity to see who is the best wrestler at every weight in New York State at the 2021 Journeymen NYS Championships! The tournament will take place on April 2nd and 3rd at Spooky Nook Sports in Manheim, PA. This will be a one division tournament to determine the best of the best! Additional information regarding viewership will be available as the tournament nears, but for right now…let’s check out this absolutely loaded field!

Joseph Curreri
Curreri was last year’s Section 9 Division 2 champion at 120 pounds. Joey went 1-2 at at the state tournament in Albany and also had a nice showing at last year’s Eastern States Classic where he went 2-2. Eldred will not be able to compete this season leaving his career wins total at 97. Curreri was hoping to join brother Noah and Nick as Eldred’s only 100 career wins wrestlers.
