There is life after “The Gwiz” for N.C. State’s wrestling program.
Unbeaten in the ACC and ranked in the top 10 in the country is not bad for any year, let alone what coach Pat Popolizio expected to be rebuilding year.
But that’s where Popolizio finds his Wolfpack team, ranked No. 8 in the country and with a 4-0 conference mark heading into Saturday’s ACC match at No. 5 Virginia Tech (15-1, 4-0 ACC).
The Wolfpack is set the host for the ACC championship on March 4 at the newly renovated Reynolds Coliseum and has a chance to host a Big Ten team in the NWCA National Duals on Feb.
