Penn State wrestling took center stage at the U20 World Championships. Freshman phenom PJ Duke won gold, but Penn State could still redshirt him this season. Why would the Nittany Lions hold back one of their most talented recruits ever?

Host Zach Seyko breaks down Duke’s championship run, Cole Mirasola’s bronze medal, and Connor Mirasola’s battle back through repechage. Plus, William Henckel continues to impress at 79kg, proving he’s not just another developmental prospect.

What do these results mean for Penn State’s lineup in 2025–26 — and which wrestlers might be left out of the starting rotation?
