Weekend primer: Forty in a row for Lion wrestlers

ALTOONA, Pa. -- You'd think going up against the No. 4 team in the country that Penn State would face a significant challenge.

Ha!

It was business as usual for the No. 1 Nittany Lions as they clobbered No. 4 Ohio State, 29-9, on the road Friday night in Columbus.

Penn State won its 40th consecutive dual meet, yet another in the long line of impressive feats by the program. The Lions haven't lost a meet since falling to Iowa in January of 2020.

Penn State lost only two of the eight bouts against Ohio State on the way to a dominant victory.
