Lock Haven Wrestling enters the 2023-2024 wrestling season ranked No. 21 in the FloWrestling preseason rankings as the program from a small school in Pennsylvania looks to win the MAC and have another impress NCAA showing. 

Last season, Anthony Noto finished fourth in the 125-pound division at the NCAA Tournament. Noto enters this season as the No.2-ranked wrestler in his weight class and one of the favorites to win the national championship. 

Lock Haven also returns Gable Strickland (No. 21 at 133-pounds) and Nick Stonecheck (No. 24, 149). 

Aside from success at the NCAA Tournament, it’s been a big year for Lock Haven. The Bald Eagles saw program legend Chance Marsteller compete at the World Championship after making Team USA. 

This season, the Bald Eagles open the season at the Princeton open on Nov. 5. They also travel to the Journeymen Collegiate Classic, which is streaming live on FloWrestling and the FloSports app.
