At the conclusion of the 2018-2019 season, they are at a 59 dual meet win streak.

Former wrestlers include Dan Hodge Trophy Winner Kerry McCoy (wrestler) (1997) and Bo Nickal (2019), and two-time Dan Hodge Trophy Winners David Taylor (2012, 2014) and Zain Retherford (2017, 2018).

History

The Penn State wrestling program was established in 1909 and was declared national dual meet champion in 1921.[1]

[2] In 1925, Penn State won all seven team duals in which they competed, finishing the dual meet season undefeated.[3]

Charlie Spiedel coached the team from 1927-1942 and 1947-1964, taking a four-year break to serve during World War II. He is credited with laying the groundwork for the Nittany Lion wrestling program's standard of excellence. He guided the team to the 1953 national title.[4]

Prior to competing in the Big Ten Conference, the Penn State wrestling program competed as members of the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (1918-1974) and the Eastern Wrestling League (1975-1992).
