Today Tyler Berger announced his retirement from wrestling and will focus on transitioning to MMA. No word yet on whether this means he is stepping down from his assistant coach role at Penn or not.

Thanks for the updates. Im encouraged about Federici's upside after watching him this year.

I don't know. There's got to be a reason HALF of the ivy men's wrestling coaches have fled within the past two seasons. I get the feeling something bad is brewing in the ivy conference, whatever may be happening behind the scenes.

I'm sure he just tossed into the garbage that World Silver medal, him being such a flop and all.

Geez louise - anyone see Jiminez' win over Sage Mortimer (a pretty well established name in wfs)? She is phenomenal.

Same - womens wrestling isnt my thing personally but gotta say it's pretty cool Jimenez is coming to Lehigh, she looks like an Olympic contender already. i could see going to a womens dual to watch her compete.
