Penn State wrestling announced its home and away Big Ten opponents for the 2025-26 season Monday, with eight total conference matches.

The Nittany Lions will face Indiana, Nebraska, Ohio State, and Rutgers at home, while they’ll travel to Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, and Northwestern.

Each home opponent finished last season in the top 10 of the Big Ten standings, with Nebraska and Ohio State finishing in the top five.

After losing key wrestlers Carter Starocci, Beau Bartlett, Greg Kerkvliet, among others, Penn State will have a reloaded roster with several new starters.

Penn State is coming off a 15-0 season that was capped off by a national championship, its fourth in a row.
