Penn State's Aaron Nagao In For Huge Test On Sunday With Lehigh's 133s
Penn State's Aaron Nagao In For Huge Test On Sunday With Lehigh's 133s
133 will be worth the price of admission on Sunday when Lehigh travels to Penn State.
CKLV is the main focus for most college wrestling fans this weekend, as it should be. However, don’t think that the weekend is over Saturday evening. On Sunday at 2 pm Eastern Lehigh travels to State College to take on Penn State. While Penn State should run away with the dual, there is one huge match you should tune in to see - 133 lbs. #1 Ryan Crookham / Connor McGonagle vs #4 Aaron Nagao.
Lehigh listed both guys on their probable lineups while Penn State only listed Nago. While most fans are surely hoping Lehigh sends out Crookham, it’s a great match either way. McGonagle is coming off a huge win over #6 Sam Latona at the All-Star Classic.
Who will Lehigh send out? Can Crookham stay hot and prove the Collegiate Classic wasn’t a one-off performance? How will Nagao look in his Rec Hall debut? Can Nagao use his top game to the young Crookham? Can Crookham out scramble Nagao? If McGonagle beats Nagao what does Lehigh do next? So many questions will be answered and/or created because of this match on Sunday. You can watch on the B1G Network at 2 pm Eastern.
Listen to Connor McGonagle talk about the situation with teammate Ryan Crookham below.
