Yes. South Dakota IS NOT South Dakota State. Even then you’d still have to live in South Dakota.

I believe he is from South Dakota so there u go.

I’m sure it’s nice for a few weeks in June.

By all reports, things were looking promising on the Karst Hunter recruitment.

Yesterday, however, South Dakota offered him.

Maybe IUP Athletics can sign up on that sugar daddy app

It couldn’t hurt.

IUP restarting wrestling would be detrimental to IUP football and basketball. Wrestling has a large roster and in the 21st Century has become about tournaments rather than duals, making it expensive and an easy target for departments looking to trim expenses. The average PSAC school with D2 wrestling are giving out 3 1/4 scholarships. There isn't any fat left to cut from the lesser sports. Rich and mighty IUP only spends 4 1/2 TOTAL scholarship equivalencies for baseball, track, golf, and swimming.

In recent years the KCAC has hosted the high school regional wrestling tournament as well and it was always packed. This is a wrestling town, no doubt, and Pennsylvania is one of the top, if not the top wresting state in the country. There would be interest. That said, cheerleading and hockey aren’t varsity sports and should be so add wrestling to the list of wants.

They dropped it due to Title IX.

But IUP won’t restart a wrestling program. Odd.

It's not really THE state wrestling championships (The PIAA's were last weekend in Hershey). This weekend it's The Keystone State Championships which has 10 divisions, both boys and girls, ranging from under 6 years old to junior high. They will have hundreds of youth wrestlers, their coaches, families, and others. The KCAC has become a good venue for wrestling tournaments of this kind. In April, they will host the FloNationals for the 6th straight year, which brings in top HS wrestlers from all over the country. It's a big event.

I see the KCAC is hosting the state wrestling championships.

IUP has no wrestling program.

Seems odd..but good for Indiana to get this event.
