News: Penn State to host Lehigh for BJC Dual

Some thoughts ...

First, congrats to your daughter, and congrats to you. It's always nice to have additional reasons to visit State College.

Tickets for BJC matches are the easiest of PSU wrestling match tickets to obtain. If I recall correctly, season ticket holders get their tickets first, then they are allowed to purchased additional tickets, and then the tickets go on sale to the general public. Info about purchasing tickets will be posted on GoPSUsports.com at some point in the future, and I'm sure it will be linked on this board.

Thanks Tom!

Nittany Lion Wrestlers to Host Lehigh in BJC Dual
Battle of Pennsylvania titans set for Sunday, Dec. 4

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; July 28, 2016 – The Penn State wrestling team, winner of five of the last six NCAA and Big Ten titles, has announced the date and opponent of the 2016-17 BJC Dual. Head coach Cael Sanderson’s Nittany Lions will host Lehigh on Sunday, Dec. 4. The time is to be announced.

With the increasingly high demand for Penn State wrestling tickets, the Nittany Lions have wrestled at least one dual meet in the Bryce Jordan Center in each of the last three years (two last year). The Lion/Mountain Hawk battle will mark the second time that Sanderson and the Lions have welcomed one of Pennsylvania’s other top programs. Penn State averaged a school record 8,756 fans per dual last year and heads into the new season with 32 sell-outs in its last 33 duals, including 29 straight in Rec Hall and three of four in the BJC.

Penn State owns a 67-34-3 advantage in its long-time series with intra-state rival Lehigh. The Nittany Lions have won six straight, including last year’s 28-9 victory in Bethlehem.

Yes. Trust me Lehigh wants to beat us really bad and so do all their fans...IT WILL BE A SELL OUT !!!!
