A Look Back At Penn State Wrestling’s Cael Sanderson’s 10 National Championships
Since taking the wrestling world by storm and making the move to Happy Valley in 2009, Penn State wrestling head coach Cael Sanderson hasn’t looked back.
Sanderson secured his 10th national championship during session five of the 2023 NCAA Tournament in Tulsa, Oklahoma, solidifying his dominance in the sport once again.
En route to the title, the Nittany Lions’ team score in the national competition tallied 137.5. Meanwhile, second-place Iowa came in more than 50 points behind at 82.5.
Over the past 12 seasons, Sanderson curated a 191-16-2 record, holds a 104-11-1 conference record, and earned his 100th career Big Ten win against Iowa in January.
In his 14 years, Sanderson shaped 83 All-Americans, 34 NCAA Champions, and five Hodge Trophy winners.
