Dominant performances from newcomers and veterans alike helped the Nittany Lions open conference play in style.

"I am excited to announce I'm returning to the one place I can chase this dream - Penn State - where I will finish my wrestling career as a Nittany Lion."

While Penn State's wrestling program has been widely successful in recent years, only one athlete could make it to the championship on Sunday.

Barr, a two-time Michigan state champion, is projected to compete for the Nittany Lions at either 174 or 184 pounds once he arrives in Happy Valley.

While competing for Central Michigan, Hildebrandt became a two-time All-American, a three-time NCAA Championships qualifier, and a two-time MAC champion at 125 pounds.

Brooks is now 6-0 overall on the season with two pins and two major decisions under his belt.
