Pitt’s wrestling team opened strong with an impressive 32-4 win over Cal State Bakersfield. That, of course, is significantly better than last year when the Panthers eeked out a three-point win over them on the road.
This year’s squad is significantly different from last year and there are new guys in the mix along with some guys making weight changes. But if this match was any indication, head coach Keith Gavin looks like he has a nice collection of talent that is ready to rebound from last year’s disastrous season.
One thing I thought was great was ex-wrestler Dom Forys sitting in on the commentary.
