Penn State Wrestling: Freestyle Season

It’s that time of year, friends. The wrestling coaching carousel spins out of control. We’re wrestling freestyle now, too - so no more riding time talk. Big hooray for that. Let’s take a quick look around the Penn State and national wrestling landscape.

Coaching Carousel

  • Wisconsin retired Barry Davis, and hired fireball Chris Bono from South Dakota State.
  • Joe McFarland retired from Michigan, and the Wolverines promoted Sean Bormet.
  • (How cool is that? A new program in the south!)
  • (Actually, it’s two new programs in the south - Presbyterian, in South Carolina, also started a D1 program).
