UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - After an outstanding finish to his 2014-15 season, redshirt sophomore Matt McCutcheon enters the 2015-16 season with a resounding confidence at the 184-pound weight class for the Nittany Lions.
McCutcheon posted a 26-14 record last season and made it to the 'Round of 12' at the NCAA Championships. McCutcheon started off his college career slower than he would have liked, dropping two matches to a pair of the better wrestlers in the country at 184 pounds. After that point, the then-redshirt freshman realized that maybe he wasn't quite where he thought he was at that point in his career.
