The final score of 177 ascended over last season’s record of 172.5 where Penn State had four national champions, including six All-Americans. The record was broken with a 4-3 win from Carter Starocci, a win that officially made the Nittany Lion the first and only five-time national champion.
In second place, Nebraska finished with 117. After session V, Penn State led the Cornhuskers 169-109.
Two Nittany Lions took home individual titles en route to the record-breaking performance featuring Carter Starocci and Mitchell Mesenbrink. All 10 Penn Staters earned All-American status.
