Penn State wrestler Shayne Van Ness continues to impress, could push for All-American bid

In Penn State’s 33-8 rout of Rutgers, Shayne Van Ness delivered a huge four points early in the dual.

No. 13 Van Ness faced off against Rutgers’ Tony White, earning a 21-9 major decision on Friday night.

With the way the first period went, the final result came as a shock. After one, Van Ness held a 6-4 lead over White via a reversal in the closing seconds of the period.

White looked up to the challenge and was poised for a competitive bout against an excellent grappler, but the second period started to show cracks in the Scarlet Knight’s shield.
