LOCK HAVEN, PA – The Lock Haven University men’s wrestling team and head coach Scott Moore have announced the newest class of Bald Eagles, who are set to join “The Rise,” for the 2022-23 season.

The Bald Eagles welcome 10 new freshmen and two transfers to Mat-Town U.S.A., all of whom have signed a National Letter of Intent, have been accepted and/or have enrolled at Lock Haven University.

“We are excited that these young men chose to continue their careers at Lock Haven University,” said Coach Moore. “They will be part of a very talented team that has high expectations after capturing the conference championship last season. Our staff is ready to help them develop at the next level and provide guidance as they transition into being a Division I student-athlete. The addition of experienced transfers will also provide more leadership and competition in the room. Overall, this class will add a lot of talented and hardworking men to our program and most importantly The Haven Family.”

Back in March, Lock Haven captured the 2021-22 Mid-American Conference (MAC) Championship, and the talented group of newcomers will look to help defend the conference crown. Along with the MAC Championship title, the Bald Eagles also grabbed the East Division regular season dual title, both of which were the first for LHU since joining the conference in 2019.
