Steadman returns (Back Points)

Steadman returns

Clay Steadman’;s return to competition at Reno, Nev. this Sunday after a two-meet suspension could not have come any sooner for the 197-pounder.

“It feels good to be back,” Steadman said. “I came back with a fire under my belly – trying to get back into it, get back on the coach’s good side.”

Steadman said he had a beer on his 21st birthday with some friends – none of whom were members of the Penn State wrestling team. The action warranted the suspension because it broke Penn State coach Cael Sanderson’s team rule, which asked all wrestlers to abstain from drinking alcohol during the season.

When the coaching staff asked if Steadman had a beer, he informed the coaches he did.

“They thanked me for being honest,” Steadman said. “I’;m not going to do it anymore. That was a thing from the past that I used to participate in in past seasons. It’s not what they’re about, and it’s not what I’m about anymore either.”
