UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - With the full season of Rec Hall wrestling once again sold out in advance of the year's start, the general public still has two great opportunities to see head coach Cael Sanderson's Penn State Nittany Lion wrestlers in action this season. A limited number of standing room only (SRO) tickets for seven Rec Hall duals as well as single dual tickets for Penn State's match-up with Pittsburgh in the Bryce Jordan Center will be made available to the public beginning on Tuesday, Oct. 29.
Tickets to the Dec. 8 event against Pitt in the BJC will be $10 for adults and $5 for youth with a group rate of $4 per ticket for groups of 15 or more. SRO tickets for Penn State's seven duals in Rec Hall are also $10 for adults and $5 for youth (there are no group packages for the SRO sale). Penn State's seven Rec Hall dates include Lock Haven (Nov. 24), Ohio State (Dec. 21), Purdue (Jan. 12), Northwestern (Jan. 19), Illinois (Jan. 24), Oklahoma State (Feb. 16) and Clarion (Feb. 23).
Fans can purchase tickets beginning on Oct. 29 by visiting the Athletic Department Ticket Office between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. or by calling 1-800-NITTANY. Fans will be notified which Rec Hall duals have SRO availability at that time. Penn State opens up the 2013-14 season at Rider on Sat., Nov. 16, and at Lehigh on Sun., Nov. 17. All-Americans David Taylor (St. Paris, Ohio), Matt Brown (West Valley City, Utah) and Ed Ruth (Harrisburg, Pa.) will take part in the NWCA All-Star Classic two weeks prior to that on Nov. 2 at George Mason. In addition, Penn State will have a presence at the Binghamton Open on Nov. 10 with many Lions making the trip unattached.
Fans are encouraged to follow Penn State wrestling via twitter at www.twitter.com/pennstateWREST and on Penn State Wrestling's facebook page at www.facebook.com/pennstatewrestling. The 2013-14 Penn State Wrestling season is presented by The Family Clothesline.
