Gardner Webb University Announces 2016-2017 Schedule with 3 Home Dates Against ACC Programs
BOILING SPRINGS – Gardner-Webb announced its 2016-2017 wrestling schedule Tuesday, featuring six home matches. Three of those home dates will come against ACC programs. The Runnin’ Bulldogs earned a share of the 2016 Southern Conference regular season title and will attempt to repeat that feat against another tough slate of league opponents – with five of its seven SoCon matches on the road in 2017.
Gardner-Webb opens the season with three bouts on Saturday, November 5, in Philadelphia. The ‘Dogs will take on Shippensburg (Noon), Sacred Heart (1:30 pm) and host Drexel (3:00 pm) that afternoon.
Gardner-Webb will host three members of the ACC during its six-match home slate, beginning with Virginia on December 2 (7:00 pm). GWU will also wrestle in Paul Porter Arena against Duke on February 1 (7:00 pm) and North Carolina on February 10 (7:00 pm). The Runnin’ Bulldogs will also host MAC powerhouse Ohio on February 12 (1:00 pm) as part of its non-conference home slate.
