Discussion Topic: Great article in todays Plain Dealer
Mike Vash added to this discussion on January 19, 2012

Anyone who has been around the Tomasellos know what a great family these people are. A great example of great parents producing great kids both in their sports an in the classroom.http://www.cleveland.com/hssports/blog/index.ssf/2012/01/twin_brothers_connected_by_fam.html

wonderful article on Tomasello twin brothers, one a champion wrestler, one a champion skater-- this type stuff is what PD sports does best.

more boring Browns & Cavs articles only induce sleep & depression, but this local color is great stuff-- and its REAL !! s/BobP

Nate Tomasello lives in Parma, works out at The Barn in Elyria and attends...CVCA? (CVCA is located just outside of Akron)

No disrespect to CVCA, a fine school and great program, but why wouldn't Tomasello have gone to Padua or St Eds? Padua in particular is so much closer. Just curious.

Hank, don't know but for one thing, there is a difference-- Padua and st Eds are Catholic schools, while CVCA is Christian which encompasses alot more religions that just Catholic.

and maybe he just likes coach Don Lorence?? all these kids have their favorite coaches that they feel most comfortable with.

In Walsh Jesuit heyday many loved Bill Barger for example. --and re the Barn, i know alot love Erik Burnett.

in individual sports like wrestling and ice skating and gymnastics, the top kids will go anywhere to be with the coach they prefer. ...s/BobP

Bob: My mistake as I didn't realize that CVCA was not a Catholic school. That's a big difference.

Don Lorence is a fine man by all accounts. That matters too.
