SWINfan Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) The first B1G wrestling casualty of 2021. Penn St. pausing all wrestling activities due to Covid affecting Tier 1 personnel. I just edited last week's thread. No need to make a new one. Disappointed once again. Edited January 22, 2021 by SWINfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrestlenewbie Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 More on tiers: Tier 1: This is the highest exposure tier and consists of individuals for whom physical distancing and face coverings are not possible or effective during athletic training or competition. Examples of relevant individuals include student-athletes, coaches, athletic trainers and physical therapists, medical staff, equipment staff and officials. Tier 2: This is a moderate exposure tier and consists of individuals who come into close contact with Tier 1 individuals but can reasonably maintain physical distance and use face coverings. Examples of relevant individuals include certain team staff (e.g., executives) and certain operational staff (e.g., security, event staff and league staff). Tier 3: This is the lowest exposure tier and includes individuals who provide event services but do not come into close contact with Tier 1 individuals (and should this occur, would be reclassified into Tier 2). Examples of relevant individuals include certain operational staff (e.g., housekeeping, catering, sanitation and transportation) and media/broadcast.

But it sucks. I was really looking forward to see this time wrestle. With Robby Howard at 125, Beau Bartlett at 149, Joe Lee at 165, Carter Starocci at 174, more Aaron Brooks at 184, Michael Beard at 197 and Greg Kerklivet at 285. There are a lot of newcomers, but it could be one hell of a lineup and an exciting one to watch. Edited January 15, 2021 by SWINfan IU89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWINfan Posted January 22, 2021 Author Share Posted January 22, 2021 I just edited last week's thread. No need to make a new one. Disappointed once again. Coach Sanderson commented in an interview this week, that one of the concerns stemming from Covid is weight management. Not only did they have to make sure everyone was healthy, but with the lack of practice, making sure guys could make weight is challenging. He was very general in nature, but it was something maybe us fans don't think about first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
