The PSU wrestling team is back in action, and now solidly in #2 across all polls—after starting off the year at #3 in intermat’s dual rankings. Also moving up in the polls in the last two weeks the Nittany Lions have been off is Nick Lee—for the first time in a Penn State singlet, the returning National champ is ranked number one, with Yianni Diakomihalis’ bump up to 149 lbs for the rest of the season (sorry, Beau Bartlett!).
For their first Friday/Saturday dual split, PSU heads to the historic Palestra to take on the Penn Quakers—and their new volunteer coach, one Mark Hall (who joined fellow Penn Stater and Associate Head Coach Bryan Pearsall on staff this off-season).
