Although Penn State wrestling fans won’t know this year’s starting lineup until the Nittany Lions take the mat Thursday against Army West Point in Rec Hall, head coach Cael Sanderson did offer a few clues.
Junior Jered Cortez will move up a weight class from last year to wrestle at 141 pounds, and true freshman Nick Lee (141) will likely redshirt, Sanderson told the media Thursday.
Cortez transferred to the Nittany Lions from Illinois after the 2014-15 season, sat out the next year due to Big Ten transfer rules, then missed most of last season with a shoulder injury.
