After back-to-back weekends on the road, the Mountaineers return home to Boone this weekend for a HUGE two-game series with Georgia State, who is just one game behind them in the Sun Belt standings.

Head coach JohnMark Bentley's Mountaineers, who lost four veteran starters but are returning a large group of accomplished wrestlers from a last year’s squad, were picked to finish third in a vote of the league's coaches.
