Xochitl Mota-Pettis is also in the hunt for a bronze medal in the 57 kg category, thanks to her first-round opponent advancing to the finals. The U.S. Greco-Roman team will begin their competition on Friday, featuring wrestlers like Phillip Moomey and Robert Perez III.Carter Starocci has announced his return to Penn State for the 2023-24 wrestling season, aiming to become the Nittany Lions' first four-time NCAA champion. Starocci, who recently won his third NCAA title at 174 pounds, also hinted at a potential Olympic run in the 2024 Summer Games. He has the nation's longest active winning streak with 52 straight bouts and is Penn State's sixth three-time champion. The University of Oklahoma announced that its wrestling program will remain in the Big 12 Conference as an affiliate member, even as the university transitions to the Southeastern Conference in 2024. The decision followed a vote by the Big 12's governance group, which includes university presidents and athletic directors. Oklahoma's wrestling program has a storied history, with seven national championships and 24 conference titles, including three in the Big 12 era. Starting July 1, 2024, the Big 12 wrestling membership will feature legacy programs like Iowa State and Oklahoma State, as well as affiliate programs such as Air Force and Missouri. Arizona State will also join as a newcomer in 2024. Iowa wrestling is gearing up for its season debut on November 4 against California Baptist, amid a turbulent offseason and pending NCAA decisions on sports-wagering penalties. Hawkeye coach Tom Brands praised the NCAA for its deliberative approach and emphasized that the athletes facing suspensions have been accountable. The vote on sports-wagering penalties is set for November 8, and Brands is hopeful for a decision that "fits the crime." Abe Assad and Nelson Brands are currently facing NCAA suspensions related to sports gambling and are likely to miss the season's first dual. Both athletes have criticized the NCAA and are awaiting the Division I Council's vote. While other Iowa wrestlers are also believed to be facing suspensions, Assad and Nelson Brands are the only ones to have spoken publicly about the issue.The National Wrestling Coaches Association has released its NCAA Women's Wrestling Preseason Coaches' Poll, with defending national champion North Central College leading the pack.

It's SHORT TIME SHOTS … a quick look at the day's top wrestling stories. -The International Olympic Committee has suspended Russia's Olympic organization due to Russia incorporating Ukrainian regions into its national sports program, however, individual Russian athletes are not outright banned. The issue of how to handle Russian athletes since the beginning of Ukraine's invasion has been inconsistent globally. Interestingly, Russia's success in sports, including 45 of 71 medals won in the 2021 Tokyo Summer Olympics, has strong connections with Russian's military, particularly the Central Sports Club of the Army.-Aiden Sparger, a junior at Ridgewood High School in Ohio and a member of the wrestling team, was commended by Coshocton County Commissioners for saving a fellow student from choking using the Heimlich maneuver. The student was choking on Skittles during a world history class, and when the teacher's attempt to administer the Heimlich failed, Sparger stepped in. Sparger, who also plays football and runs track, said he applied the Heimlich much like he would a wrestling hold, successfully clearing the obstruction.-In episode 735 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, retired coach Mike Denney reflected on his 32-year career at University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO), marking seven national team titles, the aftermath of the termination of the wrestling program, and the start of a new coaching chapter at Maryville.

His mission goes beyond wrestling, with the goal to develop good individuals who will serve the community. Along with local athletes, the program aims to host international tournaments, bringing in wrestlers from across the world.

In future, the center is set to offer fitness classes, gymnastics, martial arts, boxing, and other activities.-Morgan State, the only HBCU offering wrestling at the NCAA Division I level, has released its full season schedule.

In episode 735 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, the spotlight shines on retired college wrestling coach Mike Denney, whose illustrious career spans over 51 years. Coach Denney reminisces on his 32-year tenure at the University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO), during which he clinched seven national team titles. The 2011 championship was particularly poignant as it was followed by the abrupt discontinuation of the wrestling program at UNO, a decision that sent shockwaves through the wrestling community​. A momentous occasion awaits on Saturday, October 14, as Sapp Fieldhouse hosts a celebratory event honoring Coach Denney and his 2011 National Championship team, alongside 63 years of Nebraska-Omaha alumni. The festivities continue at Baxter Arena later that night during a hockey game. Denney articulates the healing journey post the disheartening phase post-2011 championship. He also explores the current administration's efforts at UNO to amend past decisions and shares intriguing anecdotes regarding Maryville's acquisition of Denney's old mats from UNO, marking the inception of a new chapter in his coaching career​.Links to FollowJoin the Discord: https://www.mattalkonline.com/discord Daily Wrestling Newsletter: https://www.mattalkonline.com/newsContribute: https://www.mattalkonline.com/contributePatreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattalkonline The Short Time Time Wrestling Podcast is proudly supported by Compound Sportswear: https://www.mattalkonline.com/compound Quick Subscribe: https://www.Podfollow.com/shorttime Short Time Wrestling Podcast: Episode 735 – October 11, 2023

Longtime Rider wrestling coach Gary Taylor passed away last month. After 39 years at the helm, he handed the keys to the Rider program to his longtime assistant coach John Hangey. On today's episode of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, we'll talk with John Hangey as he enters his sixth year as the head coach at Rider. He'll touch on his career and how he ended up at Rider, how he came back to Rider after serving as the head coach at Bucknell in the late 90s and what legacy Coach Taylor will leave on this world and in the world of wrestling. It's notable as well that Rider wrestling received a half-million dollar donation from the Morrison family this week, laying the groundwork for a new wrestling practice facility, one that will bear Gary Taylor's name. Five Morrisons have wrestled at Rider, including All-American Tim Morrison's three sons - T.J., Rob and Clint.

The 72nd annual Headliner's Night, hosted by the Peninsula Sports Club, took place on June 27 at the Omni Hotel in Newport News, Virginia. William & Mary football play-by-play commentator Jay Colley served as the Master of Ceremonies for the annual event, which featured Mat Talk Online's Jason Bryant as the event's Keynote Speaker. In 2021, Bryant received the Bob Moskowitz Media Award from the Peninsula Sports Club just hours after he left the Olympic Games in Tokyo. This year, he had a chance to speak about his experiences around the mat, but how much his life was shaped by watching and covering sports on the Peninsula before breaking out into the world of international wrestling. The entire night is captured on this episode of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast. The keynote stars around 11 minutes in with a lot of Virginia-based stuff before and after if that's your kinda thing. Photo provided by Jim Heath. Links to Follow

Cody Garcia was a four-time NCAA Division II All-American and two-time champion at powerhouse Nebraska-Omaha under coach Mike Denney. Garcia, the son of a coach himself, started his career at his alma mater after finishing up with his eligibility in 2009.

Sometimes we get an opportunity to put new gear to use and try to come up with new features to bring another perspective to coverage and content. Episode 698 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast is just that. With some new wireless devices used to record audio, I hit record on Augsburg co-head coach Tony Valek during the annual Battle of the Burgs dual on January 27 in Minneapolis. What this episode highlights is Valek's coaching style just as the meet begins, during the competition and how he gets athletes ready during the moments before competing, during injury time and some interactions with the staff as they go through a heated dual meet. Set to background music, this can be consumed as a passive listening experience or listened closely to see how certain coaches are in mat side situations.  Will there be more of these? That's dependent on the feedback. We have two so far - both coming from Battle of the Burgs. Eric Keller, Wartburg head coach, will be released soon.  Links to Follow Daily Wrestling Newsletter: https://www.mattalkonline.com/news Contribute: https://www.mattalkonline.com/contribute Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattalkonline Rokfin: https://www.rokfin.com/creator/mattalkonline The Short Time Time Wrestling Podcast is proudly supported by Compound Sportswear: https://www.mattalkonline.com/compound Quick Subscribe: https://www.Podfollow.com/shorttime Short Time Wrestling Podcast: Episode 698 - February 11, 2022

Episode 686 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast and we're talking with UW-La Crosse head wrestling coach Dave Malecek about the upcoming triple-dual in La Crosse on November 12 featuring Division I, Division II and Division III simultaneously. We'll also chat about Dave's time in La Crosse and D3 wrestling overall. Malecek was a 1994 All-American for Northern Iowa at 190 pounds before getting into high school teaching and coaching. The opportunity arose to join the Wartburg staff in 2000 and that's where his affinity for Division III grew after being born outside of Storm Lake, Iowa with then-Buena Vista coach Al Baxter.  Malecek has coached the Eagles to 13 individual titles since his arrival and has been a trophy-contending team for much of his tenure.  Links to Follow Daily Wrestling Newsletter: https://www.mattalkonline.com/news Contribute: https://www.mattalkonline.com/contribute Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattalkonline Rokfin: https://www.rokfin.com/creator/mattalkonline The Short Time Time Wrestling Podcast is proudly supported by Compound Sportswear: https://www.mattalkonline.com/compound Quick Subscribe: https://www.Podfollow.com/shorttime Short Time Wrestling Podcast: Episode 686 - November 10, 2021
