Wayne Wrestling Alumni Night

The annual Alumni Night for Wayne Wrestling is Thursday December 20th. Wayne is hosting Geneva. JV is at 6PM and Varsity starts at 7PM. Be sure to be there by 7 to take part in the Alumni festivities, including a group photo. I guess it’s not a surprise, since it was published in the WC Mail, but Steve Azzano and Joe Molino will be inducted into the Wayne Wrestling Hall of Fame.

Home Page Update

Been busy the last couple of days making a significant update to our home page. The new Alumni News and Info section is created using the Blog software that is used for the site weblog. Each new posting has a title, date and time submitted, submitters name, and capabilities for comments. The latest listings appear towards the top, and are ordered by dates in descending order. These are separate from the site weblog, the site weblog will continue.

The right sidebar now has a calendar and search form for finding old news items. I’ve only added a few existing news items in the new format, so older news items are gone. But they should be preserved now and into the future (theoretically).

It was quite a drastic change, so there may be some glitches. I will correct them as I find them. Once it is working smoothly, the next task will to try and merge two separate login schemes so that registered users can submit Alumni News and Info items.

New Site Weblog Posting

I have posted something on the site weblog. Bad news is, 2398 words. The topic however may only be interesting to a small percentage of readers. It mostly has to do with some of the trials and tribulations of keeping this website going.

Uploading Images

I have been working on a way for users to upload files. It is intended mostly for pictures, etc, but could be utilized for other things. So I’d like to have some people try it out, with the expectation that all may not go smoothly, because frankly, I’m over my head. But it worked OK for me the last few times, so why not. Click here if you have any pictures for your listing or anything else that could be used here.

Alumni Directory Improvement

You now have the ability to display the directory listings of individual classes (finally). It is available in the navigation area when viewing the Alumni Directory pages. Just select the class you wish to view and click submit.

No Foreigner to Wayne Central

Nov. 7 – Lou Gramm of Foreigner appeared at Wayne Central’s career day this week. I hear he was given an honorary degree from Wayne Central. I guess that means he is eligible to be an honorary member of Wayne Alumni. So if you run in to Lou, welcome him to the fold.

Over the Wall with DJ Copp

D.J. Copp, a 1995 Wayne Alum, has been working as a pit crew member in the NASCAR Nextel Cup series for a few years now. This year, he is the front tire changer on the #8 Budweiser car for Dale Earnhardt Jr. He also has become a regular correspondent/analyst for the ESPN show NASCAR Now. Here is a link to an article on the DEI website DEI Crew Member Lends Expertise to ESPN.
