  • Bo Nickal Wins the Hodge! Date: April 1, 2019 at 12:34 PM To: Undisclosed-Recipients:;
    From: Pat Donghia [email protected] Subject: Bo Nickal Wins the Hodge! Date: April 1, 2019 at 12:34 PM To: undisclosed-recipients:; Bo Nickal Wins the Hodge! Three-time NCAA Champion wins wrestling’s Heisman UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; April 1, 2019 – (Portion of release, including quotes, courtesy Bryan Van Kley, WIN Magazine) Penn State Nittany Lion wrestler Bo Nickal (Allen, Texas) has won the WIN Magazine/Culture House Dan Hodge Trophy, presented annually to the top collegiate wrestler in the nation by ASICS. The Hodge Trophy has been awarded since 1995. The three-time NCAA champion finished first in the voting, just ahead of teammate Jason Nolf (Yatesboro, Pa.). A Nittany Lion has now won the last three Hodge Trophy awards. Nickal joins former Nittany Lion greats Zain Retherford and David Taylor, who each claimed two Hodge Trophy honors, and former Lion stand-out Kerry McCoy, who won the honor in 1997, as Penn State recipients. In all, Penn State now has four different individuals who have won the honor six times. The Nittany Lion won his third NCAA championship on March 23, defeating Kollin Moore of Ohio State. The 5-1 finals victory at 197 pounds was Nickal’s 30th of an undefeated senior campaign that included 18 pins, three tech falls and six major decisions. In a year that featured four outstanding finalists for the award, known as “wrestling’s Heisman Trophy,” Nickal won the honor over a senior teammate Jason Nolf, also a three-time NCAA champ who had very similar stats as Nickal. The other two Hodge finalists were Rutgers’ senior Anthony Ashnault and Cornell sophomore two-time champ Yianni Diakomihalis, who won NCAA championships at 149 and 141 pounds, respectively.

(ET) Living the Dream Medal Fund Stewards in attendance pose with U.S. Olympic wrestling medalists Kyle Snyder, Helen Maroulis and J’Den Cox in New York City. Photo by Justin Hoch. With the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil still fresh on people’s minds, the wrestling community came together in New York City on November 9 to celebrate the medal-winning performances from Wrestling Team USA. The Living the Dream Medal Fund, led by a group of donors who are called Stewards, provides wrestlers with the highest level of individual bonuses of any Olympic sport in the United States. Most of the stewards were on hand during a special social event at ACME Downstairs in Manhattan. The three Olympic wrestling medalists from the USA were on hand to receive their payouts during a big check presentation. The total awarded on Wednesday night was $525,000, with Olympic champions Helen Maroulis and Kyle Snyder receiving $250,000 each and Olympic bronze medalist J’Den Cox taking home $25,000. Former National Team Greco-Roman star Dan Russell was the emcee for the evening. “Tonight is realizing that dreams got birthed in Rio for young boys and girls all over this nation. We have some great champions who I think represent us really well,” said Russell. USA Wrestling past president James Ravannack, who led the organization when the Living the Dream Medal Fund was created in 2009, welcomed the athletes, Stewards and special guests.
