Doing our best with the puzzle! 🤣It's certainly not my #1 pick of sites to buy from but it is the 1st one to come up if you Google search Penn State wrestling 2023
Time toThat must be what is taking so long. Brands is appealing to the Big10 competition committee that being forced to travel to State College to wrestle the Lions is an unfair advantage afforded the Lions. Nor only from a competitive view point, but also from a recruiting view point.
Is there something going on with her lips/mouth?
Selfish.I’d love to see PSU v Iowa in Rec Hall instead of BJC. Does that male me selfish or crazy?
Her?Is there something going on with her lips/mouth?
That was announced ahead of the schedule release 😂 😂 😂Do we know what duals will be on the BTN or other networks(ESPN, ESPN 2, etc.)?
A lesson to you youngsters, don't shuck corn with your mouth.Is there something going on with her lips/mouth?
I will let u know when it is time. Right now, it is not time.
Last time at IU, tickets were free.Yes, Feb. 5 at Indiana. Another chance to see the Lions. Unlike Rec Hall, Indiana never sells out their wrestling. I can't risk driving to State College, if I can't get tix. At IU, however, the tix are certain.
This is awesome, thank you. Adjust @ Lehigh to 12/4 and @Clarion to 2/26I have tried to keep up with what has been coming out. I hope to update the full list this evening.
Here is what I have, so far:
22-23 D1 Wrestling Schedules
BTN wrestling TV schedule was announced on October 28th last year. Look for it around that time.Do we know what duals will be on the BTN or other networks(ESPN, ESPN 2, etc.)?

Penn State wrestling on the road always reminds me of that touring softball team "The King and His Court" that would travel from town to town and just obliterate whatever local softball team it played...usually with like 6 guys taking on 9, lol.

Ditto for me in PA in the 70s (or even late 60s). The King struck out a batter from second base at one point; at another point he threw a pitch so fast that nobody could see it (assuming it wasn't a trick).I saw an exhibition in the 70s where they came to our small town and played our local team with only a pitcher, catcher, first basemen and one fielder. It wasn't close and our team did not win. One of the King's guys hit a softball that I believe is still in lower earth orbit.
Holy cow woman. Don't stand to close to the shower door or you might get stuck for a week until things dry out.
Good old AWN! For what ever reason, I always had a really good memory for numbers. I still remember my phone number from when I was in grade school.I saw the King in Ambler, PA. It must have been '62 or '63. Striking out guys while throwing between his legs from second base blindfolded.
I got an email notice from FLO about the schedules for this year. I went on and they had all the Big 10 teams listed with links to their schedules. It was great. Oh, there were one or two exceptions with no link. Don't know why.
I'm old. You youngsters don't appreciate what you have. When I was in college, the main avenue of communication in the wrestling community was Amateur Wrestling News. You looked forward to every issue. It had the results of all the duals around the country. You could track people you knew, or people you might be wrestling soon. To see someone in person, you had to travel. Now you can crawl out of bed, click a few clicks, and watch 8-year-olds wrestle.
True, but Schalles didn't really need any scouting report...he was so good at it that he basically could pin just about anyone, in any way.Good old AWN! For what ever reason, I always had a really good memory for numbers. I still remember my phone number from when I was in grade school.
I used to pour over the results in AWN and both individual and team scores would stick. Months and even a few years later, I could still accurately recall details of important duals!
AWN was also the only place you could see photos of live action. I remember Wade Schalles once saying that when he saw a photo of a potential opponent, he would study it very closely. His theory was that the odds were good that the photo was capturing the wrestler in some move or position that he used often. Interesting logic - can’t say I disagree with it.
I still remember the '69 states. John Chatman of Trinity was a returning state champ and considered invincible by some. The match was going according to plan when Schalles threw that elevator in the 3rd period and decked Chatman. Even after that, I thought I'd never hear of Shalles again. Shows how much I knew. Strangely, one of the other state champs that year practiced with my team just before states. Bill Luckenbaugh dislocated my ankle in that practice. Pissed me off, too -- the next day I was scheduled to wrestle that year's national champ and was psyched.True, but Schalles didn't really need any scouting report...he was so good at it that he basically could pin just about anyone, in any way.
I was at Rec Hall in 1969 to see the Schalles-Chatman match. As oldcougar noted, Chatman was cruising easily with something like a 5-2 lead, riding Schalles tough, and all of a sudden Schalles pulled off that elevator and it was over in seconds. Rec Hall went wild! I went to SCHS, and Schalles's last loss in HS was to a SC wrestler. Don Rockey beat Schalles at Districts in 1968. Two funky wrestlers went at it, and Rockey won something like 10-8 (not sure of exact score). Schalles was transformed between his junior and senior years of HS (reportedly by a Russian coach, although I'm not positive about that).I still remember the '69 states.

My memory is a bit hazy, but I thought I remembered a discussion on this board a year or so ago concerning the number of meets that a team could schedule in a season. It seemed like the figure was 12-15 and was set by the Big 10 conference.. I see Iowa has 17 scheduled so far assuming Sacred Heart and Buffalo is considered 1 meet. Am I remembering any of this right?
