Megaludis, Retherford Set to Return From Redshirt Season

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.- Being asked to sit out for a year is tough for any athlete to agree with. That decision is made even tougher when that athlete has previous success. Both senior Nico Megaludis and sophomore Zain Retherford were two wrestlers with past success that were asked to take a redshirt season this past season. Megaludis was a three-year starter for head coach Cael Sanderson. He was the national runner-up in both his freshman and sophomore campaigns. In the 2013-14 season, the junior finished in third place at Nationals as well as earning All-American honors for the third consecutive year.
