Speculation is swirling that Penn State will host the 2020 Olympic Wrestling Trials at the Bryce Jordan Center but, according to USA Wrestling, nothing is yet official — although an announcement could come “soon.”

According to USA Wrestling, there remain a lot of moving parts in choosing a venue. But, in a story first reported by Onward State, former Penn State wrestling legend David Taylor told a group of alumni Saturday afternoon in Pittsburgh that the Olympic Trials were already headed for Happy Valley.
