they're actually resurrecting the program, which they dropped in 1978.

always nice to have additional options for high school wrestlers to pursue the sport in college.

Glad to hear it. When I saw the title that Behrend campus was adding wrestling I was surprised. I remember the PSU freshman team wrestled them back in 1970. Great that they're starting up again! How many PSU branch campuses have wrestling now?

Is John Fritz still involved with Commonwealth Campus athletics?

SHP probably could get you the answer in a few seconds.

I checked the Penn State University Athletic Conference, and the following branch campuses are listed as having wrestling teams.

DuBois
Fayette
Mont Alto
New Kensington
Schuylkill

It appears that Altoona, Berks, Harrisburg, and Shenango are not members of the aforementioned Conference, so they may have wrestling -- I didn't check.

Altoona no longer has wrestling. They did through mid 80s.
