from the boys basketball team.  The rest, as they say, is history... as

	▪
1950 
	- 
	John T. Toggas @ York 
	High. 
        
	Toggas was a varsity 
wrestler @ 133 pounds in both his junior and senior seasons at York High. 
    After graduating from York (PA) High School in 1951 (where he was a 
three-sport athlete), 
    he 
earned his Bachelor's degree from Gettysburg College in 1958 and eventually got 
his Master's 
    Degree in Education 
from Western Maryland University
in 1971. 
	
	 
        He began his coaching 
career at Biglerville High School in 1958 and remained there 
    until 1964, when he 
moved to
West York High School.  Toggas started the elementary at Biglerville and 
    his high 
school teams were 38-32-2.  Toggas also founded the elementary program at 
West York 
    and amassed a record of 
269-78-2 at West York Area High School during two stints as head coach, 
    from 1964-1983 and from 1986-1991.  
His overall Big/WY coaching record is 307-110-4 in 29 years. 
	
    He was the first York, PA area high school coach to 
eclipse the 300-win mark.  The win 
	(300th win) 
	    occurred on 1/19/91 vs. 
	Cumberland Valley HS - won by WY 31-28. (source - Carolyn Tritt) 
   
	
	 
        Some of his 
accomplishments include 5 York County Interscholastic Athletic Association league 
    team titles, YCIAA Coach of the Year honors in 
	1972 and 
	1978, and 
	3 PIAA 
State 
Champions. 
    Toggas also produced 6 Sectional team titles, 83 Sectional Champions, 12 
District III Champions, 
    12 Regional Champions and 16 PIAA tournament qualifiers, including
	
	*5 
	- PIAA State semi-finalists 
    and 
	
	*2 
silver medalists, in addition to his three 
	PIAA Champions.  One of his main 
goals with his 
    wrestlers... was to see them go on to college and secure a degree!  Another 
milestone was 
    coaching the 1st PIAA State Wrestling Champion in the history of York, PA 
- Dana Luckenbaugh, 
    in 1965 @ 112lbs.  Dana's younger brother, Bill, went on to claim the 1969 
PIAA 127lb. title! 
   
	* PIAA State 
	semi-finalists (Arthur Miller, Biglerville; Bill Luckenbaugh, WY; John 
	Sprenkle, WY; 
	    Mike Stambaugh, WY; Jeff Meckley, WY). 
	   
	* PIAA State
	
	
	
	
	runner-ups
	(Bill Luckenbaugh, West 
	York - '68 & Jeff Meckley, West York - '75). 
 
        John was inducted into 
the District III Wrestling Coaches Wrestling Hall of Fame in 1980, 
    was given a 
25-year Service Award by the National Wrestling Coaches Association in 1984, 
    received 
the Leadership Award presented by the West York Area School District in 1993 and 
    was inducted into the York Area Sports Hall of Fame for Outstanding Sports 
Achievement in 1995. 
	 
        John T. Toggas also served as a 
high school official and was a member of the NCAA Rules 
    Committee as a High 
School Representative.  Among his most treasured accomplishments 
    was being 
inducted into the Pennsylvania State Wrestling Coaches (PWCA) Hall of Fame at the 
    state finals in Hershey 
in 1992.  "I think my biggest thrill I ever got coaching high 
school was when I 
    got elected into the 
PWCA State 
Hall of Fame and having my two kids... Stephanie & John S. "Moc" 
    present me with the 1992 PWCA Hall of Fame Award."  More proud?!? - 
Coach JT's wife Mary Jane!! 
    His late son, John S. "Moc" Toggas, was the head
wrestling coach at Parkland High School.
