Penn State doesn’t need to leave Pennsylvania to begin or end its 2010-11 wrestling season. The Nittany Lions aren’t leaving the state for their marquee match, either.
The program’s second schedule under coach Cael Sanderson announced Tuesday is a stark contrast to the one the program constructed in 2009-10.
The Nittany Lions are wrestling 10 times in Pennsylvania. That total includes seven dual meets at Rec Hall. Penn State wrestled just five home matches during Sanderson’s first season.

In looking at a college wrestler, it’s all too easy to get wrapped up in won-loss records, pinning percentages and other by-the-numbers stuff… and overlook the other aspects that make an athlete’s story all the more compelling.
Take Dan Vallimont, for example.
College wrestling fans know Vallimont as a Penn State redshirt senior who, despite being seeded sixth in the 165-pound bracket, made it to the finals of the 2010 NCAA Division I Championships… losing to Wisconsin's top-seeded Andrew Howe, 9-3, in the title bout.
