    Davis to face Tamillow at NWCA All-Star Classic

    STATE COLLEGE, Pa.; October 30, 2007 – Penn State Nittany Lion Phil Davis (Harrisburg, Pa.) has been selected to participate in the 2007 National Wrestling Coaches Association All-Star Classic. Ranked No. 2 at 197 pounds, the Nittany Lion senior will face No. 3 Mike Tamillow of Northwestern on Monday, Nov. 19

    The 42nd edition of the NWCA All-Star Classic presented by the United States Marine Corps heads to the Pacific Northwest for the first time in 17 years as Eugene, Ore., will host the annual wrestling spectacle.

    This year's lineup features six top-ranked wrestlers in Division I, one top-ranked wrestler in Division II, eight second-ranked wrestlers from Division I along with four #3's and one #4. In all, 14 different schools will be represented and will comprise athletes from the Big Ten, Big 12, Colonial, EIWA, EWL, Pac 10 and Division II.

    Davis was selected to wrestle in the event last year along with teammate James Yonushonis (Philipsburg, Pa.), but did not make weight. Yonushonis won his bout at 174. Davis is a three-time All-American with a 90-19 career record. He has placed seventh, second and fifth at nationals and was the 2006 Big Ten Champion. Davis downed Tamillow 8-2 in his only meeting against him last year. Tamillow, however, went on to win the Big Ten title.
