NOTES -    The NCAA has announced that this year's national telecast will be TONIGHT, Saturday, March 23, on ESPN2, starting at 7:30 p.m. Hard core wrestling fans will already know the results, but those unable to travel to Albany will get to see the finals before the day is done. In local time, the gold-medal matches will begin at 2:00 p.m. Eastern.    The National Wrestling Media Association gave out its annual journalism awards during its meeting on Saturday in Albany. This year's winners are:  Publication of the Year - EIWA Newsletter  Wrestling Print Journalist of the Year - Michael Mangan, Binghamton Press and Sun Bulletin  Photographer of the Year - G. Wyatt Schultz, Cedar Rapids, Iowa  Sports Information Director of the Year - Kevin Kurtt, Univ. of Minnesota  Broadcaster of the Year - J Carl Guymon, KSPI radio in Stillwater, Okla.  Web page of the Year - InterMat    Greg Parker of Princeton continues to make news. He is the top local athlete in the tournament, attending Shenendahowa High School in this region of New York. He is the first athlete from this area to make a NCAA Div. I finals, and the first to become an All-American since 1986. He is the first star for the Princeton team since alumni and wrestling fans helped raise funds and awareness to save the program. The last Princeton finalist was John Orr in 1985. The last Princeton champion was Brad Glass in 1951. Ironically, one of the mats used for this competition is the new Princeton home wrestling mat. Don't expect that mat to be selected for tonight's finals.    It was nice to see Joe DeMeo, the internationally respected Greco-Roman coach from Albany, attending the national championships. DeMeo recently had surgery to repair his heart, and has recoved enough to see his friends and enjoy the action. It was interesting to see that Princeton finalist Greg Parker, who competed in the local wrestling clubs, has given credit to DeMeo for much of his success.    The morning session on Saturday at the NCAA Tournament is always a bit scarce, as some fans choose to come late or even not at all in spite of having bought tickets. This year, the 8:00 a.m. start of the consolation round (to accommodate the ESPN broadcast tonight) seems very early, especially with the amount of activity on the Albany streets and in the clubs last evening.    Early on, everybody was talking about Oklahoma, and its ability to jump to second and challenge Minnesota. However, with the loss of heavyweight Leonce Crump to injury yesterday, the Sooners hopes for the team title were dashed. Now everybody is marveling at the performance of Iowa State, which placed three athletes into the finals and have five All-Americans. Aaron Holker's last second victory in Friday night's semifinals pushed the Cyclones into third place, ahead of archrival Iowa. Just seven points behind Oklahoma going into the day, if Iowa State has a good day, it could even move up into second place.    As the NCAA has banned any internet reporting from press row until the end of each session this year (an unpopular decision to say the least) many of America's great wrestling radio announcers are getting extra attention. The crews that report regularly for some of the popular teams, such at Iowa, Oklahoma State, Penn State and others, are being heard around the nation. Many colleges post their team's radio broadcasts on the internet, and fans are searching hard for information because of the information blackout.    Great news for Air Force and its respected coach Wayne Baughman, with three NCAA Div. I All-Amereican for the first time ever. Every year, Baughman's Falcons are tough, and although both Army and Navy tend to get more ink, Air Force is clearly the top military academy team in the nation this year.    Northern Iowa, with coach Brad Penrith, has continued its return to prominence. With three All-Americans, the Panthers have their most All-Americans since 1991.
