The wrestlers are AWESOME.
The coaches are AWESOME.
The PSWC Banquet, where the video was first shown, was AWESOME.
Sorry...couldn't help myself.
Loved Hall recreating his B Boy stance.
Great vid - cool to see some highlights from different angles. First time I saw that angle of Hall-Valencia

Can't tell you the number of times I got chills during the video... and I've watched the finals over 20 times on my DVR.
What an electric team, what an electric environment that this team produces every time they step up on the mat. They're a phenomenal group of young men and I couldn't be prouder to share in the unbelievable moments that they create. There are just so many of them. Thank God for each spine tingling hair that's raised on the back of my head. There is nothing like Penn State Wrestling. Nothing.
Great mixing of the lyrics to each Champion holding the National Championship trophy. Loved the interpersonal touch of the video and the choice of music.

Schweeet!
Funny though, this is a highlight video but let's be real, these kids give us this stuff match after match, dual after dual and tournament after tournament. They wrestle as if they are human highlight reels...

That roll, along with the DT standing Granby into a duck under at the Big Tens were a couple of the slickest moves I've seen from a Penn Stater.
I was on vacation and missed the national semis. Was neat to see Bo pin Brooks along with all the other highlights.
Fantastic video; I would have liked to have seen them add the video clip of Bo flipping/tossing of Gravina. That was awesome.
The size of the accomplishment is really hard to take in. Watching the finals in this fashion you realize the challenge Imar-BoJo-Dean posed and the utter ass kicking we dished out. This was a great way to celebrate a truly awesome accomplishment by an amazing group of wrestlers.
Yeah but, it if ever an athletic banquet video deserved to use "Bad To The Bone" as its soundtrack - it was this one.
Bo didn't face Brooks at B10s. His 0:38 pin in the dual is in the video, at the 2:07 mark.
And, yes, that video is, what's the word for it? ... AWESOME !!!!
You've got to at least check out Zain and Bo's semis. Electric stuff. Find a friend who DVRd the semis.
Both of those matches were statements.
The five guys we wrestled against in the finals managed four takedowns. 4. Four. As in fourget it, you are not beating Penn State.
Zain:
Bo -- note the announcer's desription of the dual, "Bo Nickal went big and pinned Sammy Brooks," about 1/2 sec before Bo tossed Brooks with the double overs:
What I would give to hear the Iowa feed of those 2 matches ( and the Iowa dual). I tried a few weeks ago to access Iowa's version of GoPSU, but all the archived wrestling was premium.
Maybe I'll buy the 24hr pass some time and gorge on some schadenfreude

No offense but that song should have been listed in the "Secret Garbage" thread from Nationals Week. That along with Perogies, Gobs and the Penn State Creamery....
Awesome video. Thanks Lion. I ordered 2 of them, ASAP. Support the NLWC!!!!!
You just know that when Sammy Brooks got tossed by Bo in the semi-finals... he was saying in his mind... "OH FRENCH... NOT AGAIN!!!
Hmm, how did you order them? I didn't see anywhere to do that. Also, this is put out by the PSU athletic department, not the NLWC, which doesn't receive money from PSU.
