Penn State fans won’t get to see the Nittany Lions take on Iowa this season, but two special matches might just make up for it.
The Nittany Lions will host the Pittsburgh Panthers inside the Bryce Jordan Center at 2 p.m. on Dec. 8. Penn State’s schedule includes seven other home duals and will feature a meeting in Rec Hall with Oklahoma State on Feb. 16.
Oklahoma State gave the Nittany Lions a run for their money at last year’s NCAA tournament and the two programs last met in a dual meet in 2007 with the Cowboys winning 21-18.
For information on Penn State wrestling tickets (including being placed on a waiting list for season tickets) call 1-800-NITTANY or visit the Penn State ticket office in the BJC during business hours (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
