I wish Penn State had one.
I note this morning that 5 of the more recent top 10 threads in the cesspool were womens wrestling. I guess Brands killed wrestling as well as his wrestler's spirits.They should have a pretty good women's wrestling team for the next few years
How much are you willing to pony up in a capital campaign to have a women's team?
The women's team will need coaches, training facilities, scholarships, and other team expenses.
Everyone knows that. He said “wish”…
Exhibit A on why other teams are not starting one.
Well there is all that, but the biggest reason is Iowa threw such a hissy fit at the last 3 Big10 annual meetings about Penn State, Cael, wrestling and the unfairness of it all that the Big10 is allowing Nicholls to give Penn State athletics bags of cash to not initiate a women's program.
Iowa has proven that it's difficult to have a good men's and women's team at the same time.
The only school with a legit D1 athletic department funding a women's wrestling team was forced into it by a Title IX lawsuit.
They just have to get in trouble with Title IX like your Hawks and it may happen.
It has to do with the 31 existing varsity sports. I believe that is the most of any school in the country. The economics to support this size of program is getting very difficult.
There is no reason iowa couldn't have a men's volleyball, swimming & diving, tennis, soccer, or rowing team.

How the he'll did iowa lose a Title IX complaint with almost twice as many women's sports than men's?
LOL they should how many D1 school have womens wrestling no one they have to recruit against!They should have a pretty good women's wrestling team for the next few years

Iowa women winning National Championships in wrestling is like Yale winning one in football in 1876 when there were 3-4 competitive teams in the entire sport.
Craziest part is Blades might start on their men’s team. Whole time we all thought this was for the women’s team. Blades Dec Nelson Brands 5-1
I might be that old guy but I have no interest in women's sports, even due to my school affiliation. I concede greatness in lady's wrestling to Iowa, come on, they need something!
Hey!!! Women's basketball blah blah female Larry Bird and stuff.

Not sure where to put this so here it is:
In fall 2024, Penn State Altoona will reintroduce men’s wrestling and launch programs in women’s wrestling

if their men's team gets any worse a few of them might work their way into Brand's lineup.They should have a pretty good women's wrestling team for the next few years
Have you ever watched some of these girls wrestle? There is legit talent there.
Iowa's gonna win everything for quite a while but Lehigh starting a team is good for the east coast girls. they should be pretty competitive in short order.
Fargo #'s were up again for girls. I think both PA and NJ had their highest #'s ever.
