Richard,
I think the Pyle he is actually talking about is Adam Pyle, Adam is the oldest and graduated in 1999. Adam is a teacher here in Sabetha and is my assisstant coach. His wife is currently pregnant with another Pyle boy! He was also a very successful wrestler but never placed at State himself(neither did I), but he is a hell of a coach!

There is a story about Matt though in the Junction tourney as a freshman beating a Sr. state placer from Junction I beleive. Laster always talks about never underestimating people when he refers to this match.

There are a total of five Pyle children, 2 girls and 3 boys, all of the same Sabetha clan(actually Morrill). On a side note, Allyn Plattner(also wrestling at Luther and former KS state placer from Sabetha) is related to the Pyle family and is first cousin to all of them. Very nice wrestling families all around!
