Welcome, Brody!

...to dunkej01...
...back in the early 50's teams in the EIWA never dreamed about winning an NCAA wrestling championship...
...winning the EIWA title was the big prize... schools usually sent only their EIWA champs to the NCAAs so it was impossible to compete with Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Iowa State, Iowa State Teachers, Michigan and Minnesota - who sent several members and often someone at each weight...back then Iowa was not a major power...
...if Penn State coach Charlie Speidel had not convinced Penn State to host the 1953 tournament it is unlikely we would have won it all that year...
...and that team went three straight years(1951-53) w/o losing a dual meet!...

androcles, may you live another 100 years, and continue to share PSU wrestling history with us.

I see Hall distancing himself from Jordan by good margin this year.....Jordan is a tough nut though.

125 and 285 keeps tosu close

I'm really excited about this kid. It will be nice to have hammers in all of the lower weights. Oh, and the middle weights. Um......and the upper weights.
