Penn State Wrestling just sent shockwaves through the freestyle world — and Final X is proof. In this episode of Locked On Nittany Lions, Zach Seyko breaks down: PJ Duke’s dominant run through the World Team Trials, beating two NCAA champs and securing a Final X spot as a high school senior. Carter Starocci vs. Kyle Dake — did the refs get it right? What really happened in the final seconds? Marcus Blaze and Masanosuke Ono join Duke as part of Penn State’s unmatched freshman trio. Levi Haines and Josh Barr power their way to Final X with dominant wins. And why Penn State is doing something no other NCAA program is even close to right now.

Drop your thoughts in the comments —
Was Starocci robbed? Should PJ Duke start at 157?
