Hopefully it's a better card than last year. None of the competitors won titles last year and quite a few didn't even AA.

I bought tickets and received a confirmation but tickets aren’t in my account? Not sure what gives with that?

I've attended a few, including the last two in State College, and my interest in the event has waned. Plus it's a bad time for work.

It’s not just you.. this event doesn't have the must see matches as much as it used to anymore.. less top wrestlers are attending this, Scuffle, Midlands, etc. Hopefully the changes w no more RS more wrestlers will come out to test themselves.

Van Ness, Welsh, and Barr are set to go at the classic.

Full lineup:



well, FLO deleted its tweet. If it puts out a new one I’ll link it. The 285 pound matchup was to be announced.

That card is awful. Stanich/Bassett and Van Ness/Henson are potential finals matches.

We've seen Barr/Little and Welsh/Mantanona and they weren't particularly close.

The rest are decent quarters matches at CKLV.
At least it better then last year… agreed 41/49 the most interesting

It’s a pure exhibition where wins and losses don’t matter. I don’t see any appeal to this event. Would rather watch the Bloomsburg dual lol

It’s hard to believe that somebody who “grew up” in the house that Cael built would think that a public challenge would be the way to get PSU’s attention! Ego and arrogance are always the enemies of success.

Sitting next to Cale in the bleachers a number of years ago, Iowa isn't wrestling PSU that year and has refused to travel to State College. A comment made by Cael was that as the two top stewards of wrestling, Penn State and Iowa should wrestle every year. Always.

Right now the top two stewards are PSU and OkieSt.
I believe thay dual will be happening in the upcoming years. Just my opinion.

If they wanted to give us interesting matches,

Seidel/Ono would have had some intrigue as there's questions about Ono on bottom and Seidel is one of the best top wrestlers at any weight.

Mirasola/Mirasola would get the Penn State fans to attend.

Any of the top 4 at 184 vs any other with no clock, first to 2 TDs wins.
