The LoHud Wrestling Blog

I haven’t had much luck getting internet at high schools this year. Check that—make it any luck. Pace only had limited access. I have higher hopes for the Times Union Center. If it does indeed have internet, and I have a place to put my computer (less likely), I’ll provide regular updates on the Section 1 wrestlers. Keep checking back through the afternoon.

If you’re making the trip to Albany, here are directions:

1. Take I-87 North (NY State Thruway) to Exit 23.


2. Merge onto I-787 North toward Downtown Albany/Rensselaer/Troy.


3. Take Exit 4 for US-9 N./US-20 W. Keep right at the fork in the ramp.


4. Turn left, then make a right turn onto Broadway.


5. Turn left onto Hudson Ave.


6. Turn right onto S. Pearl St./NY-32.

This is the schedule of events for both days.
