2018-19 Truman Wrestling Schedule Finalized

TDR Editor’s Notes;  This is more than just another college team’s schedule but also an announcement that the program has been successful in raising funds to be reinstated.  It was announced last spring that the wrestling team was to be discontinued.  We are quite glad to see that has changed and wrestling will continue at another college.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
KIRKSVILLE, Mo. – The Truman Wrestling team will compete in the 2018-19 season after reaching their fundraising goal. The Bulldogs have begun practicing and will start the season on November 1 with a dual at Upper Iowa University.
“I would like to thank everyone who donated to the program and to each of the student-athletes that stayed,” said Head Coach David Schutter. “Now it’s on to the season. These student-athletes have a great love for wrestling and for Truman.”
The season schedule features 10 regular season dual matches with two at home. The Bulldogs will wrestle the University of Central Missouri and Graceland (Iowa) on consecutive nights in Pershing Arena on February 6-7 starting at 7 p.m.
Truman will also compete in the two-day Great Lakes Valley Conference dual championship tournament on February 2-3 in Indianapolis. The seven GLVC teams will compete in a round-robin format to crown the league champion.
