Penn State Wrestling vs. Arkansas Little Rock FULL Results
This dual meet was significantly more competitive than the Nittany Lions’ previous one. Which is to say that Little Rock completed the herculean task of keeping Penn State under 50 points in the dual.
Hey, I give a lot of credit to Little Rock. They were the darlings of collegiate wrestling last season as they burst onto the scene and pulled out several early upsets. But they’ve managed to follow up that season with a super talented roster from top to bottom.
Unfortunately “super talented” doesn’t move the needle when going up against No. 1 ranked Penn State Wrestling.
