Turnbull recalled his No. 8 West Virginia team defeating No. 4 Penn State. The Mountaineers won the Eastern Wrestling League title, but maybe more importantly, the upper hand over the dominant Lions.

While the years of the Penn State-West Virginia rivalry have faded away after the Lions left the EWL to join the Big Ten, Penn State wrestling will replay its EWL days at West Virginia on Friday and at Pittsburgh on Saturday.
