CDT: Lions resume today at LHU

Guy Cipriano

With a two-week break between last month’s Reno Tournament of Champions and today’s dual meet at Lock Haven, Penn State’s wrestling season split into tidy halves.

Listening to those who oversee the team’s progress produces twoconclusions about the first half.

1. Penn State improved in enough areas to escape with a 5-1-1 dual meet record;

2. The internal expectations are higher this semester.

“The first semester was productive for us,” associate head coach Cody Sanderson said. “We made some improvements in some areas we needed to make improvement. But we have a lot of work to do before we get to the national tournament.

UNIVERSITY PARK — Penn State’s starting lineup, precocious freshmen and recent signees are in.

Other top-25 teams such as Lehigh, Missouri, Virginia, Virginia Teach and Pitt are bringing most of their lineups.

Some of Centre County’s current and past high school stars will be there, too.

And if you listen to Penn State coach Cael Sanderson, it took little selling to construct the massive and intriguing field for Sunday’s Nittany Lion Open at Rec Hall.
