The schedule looks good especially for a first year program. We should be competitive from the start.

Any word on if the matches will be in the Vines? And where will they practice? Locker room space is not in abundance anywhere on campus.

They have a spot in Schilling where they can practice. (I know, I was in the room for my karate class last fall). Id be willing to bet that for the matches in Lynchburg they will also be in Schilling as well (The place was especially set up for wrestling matches back during the first run of the program so it wouldn't surprise me)

back in the day we had the wrestling room upstairs in Liberty Gym (I know I know: SHILLING) - I'd think they'd need more room nowadays but you take what you can get for the first year. Will try to get more info from Coach.

its a start

The Virginia Duals is quickly becoming a pretty prestigious tournament in the college circles (and the high school with the emergence of some powerhouse programs like Great Bridge and Kempsville). I may have to make a trip down from LU for that one
