karelin Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 Spencer Manley recently received his letter confirming his appointment to Annapolis-Navy. He will fit in quiet well with Navy coach Bruce Burnett, 2000 Olympic coach. While Univ. of Va. is still very interested, it looks very likely that he'll be the fourth Tn wrestler to compete in the competitive EIWA conference, thus joining the Simpsons(Phillip & Patrick-West Point), and Jordan Leen-Cornell. It's very likely that they'll meet each other from time to time as well. Being a great wrestler isn't all Spencer does well in; he has a 4.2 GPA while taking several AP courses. Congratulations to Spencer for this honor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhs78 Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I know how much time and dedication it takes to compete at Spencers level. To have a 4.2 at Mccallie as well is what makes him so special. Congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigJohnFan Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 I would like to congratulate Spencer on his appointment to the Navy Academy, its quite an accomplishment...however he is quite the young man...I know how hard he has been working this season and I am confident in that his extremely large amount of dedication will pay off tomorrow. Good Luck Spence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bballwriter44 Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 while it's certainly an honor to be appointed to the navel academy, it's not exactly reasonable to draw comparisons between spencer and leen. leen is headed to a top 5 wrestling school to compete with the big boys right off the bat as a sure fire freshman starter at cornell...
