LHU Men’s Wrestling Announces Recruiting Class
LOCK HAVEN, PA – Lock Haven head men’s wrestling coach Scott Moore and the Bald Eagles are excited to announce the program’s recruiting class.
The impressive, deep and decorated recruiting class of 12 is made of 11 incoming freshmen and one Division I transfer.
The future Bald Eagles have all either signed a National Letter of Intent to compete at The Haven, or have been accepted and/or are enrolled at Lock Haven. The group will officially join The Haven wrestling family in the coming days as the 2023 fall academic semester kicks off.
“This is an experienced group of wrestlers who will add immediate depth and firepower to the room,” Moore said. “We are excited about the potential of this class, and the character and work ethic they will bring to the program. We need to continue to raise the bar in our program to be competitive at the national level. The culture in the room will give this recruiting class a first-hand look at what it takes to compete at a high level and win conference championships.”
