Team you would like to win it all - only from those who have never won?

I know they don't stand a chance but would love to see The Fighting Camels take the Team Trophy.

Second choice was going to be Cornell or UNI - but both have won it in the past.

So, will go with Nebraska & the Spiderman at 141 this year.

Amen.

I wouldn't mind Little Rock either.

I thought it was really cool the year Penn State and Cornell went 1-2; not Iowa, Oklahoma St, Minnesota, etc. Given Penn State has won so many more, wish Cornell had won it that year. 

But overall Virginia Tech

I would like to see Edinboro get back to the days of bringing home a trophy. Shoot, I wish they still gave out trophies to the top 4 teams! 

They still do. I believe it was Dresser who shamed the NCAA to back down. They got their trophy in the mail.

That was Cornell College of Iowa, not Cornell University.

Campbell's pre-NCAA press release referred to Wyatt Henson out of Lehigh, so I think that should disqualify them from consideration.  Besides, any school foolish enough to drop wrestling doesn't deserve to win the big prize.

My choice would be Lehigh, but I'm slightly biased.

I look at this from a program-wide historical perspective and think it's gotta be Cornell (NY). 

They've finished high many times and as close as second, and have had so many great individual champions who have contributed so much to the sport. 

And it's pretty impressive to do it in the no-scholarship Ivy League (although I'm not naive enough to think they don't have a lot of help from the admissions and financial aid offices for their top recruits that Joe Normal Applicant doesn't get).

Dresser is a real one for sure.

Since the Cornell that won before is not Cornell of the Ivy League - they are my first Choice. Good program & two 4 timers in their history.

Still with Campbell Fighting Camels as the second choice.

Love that mat! Have a good Campbell baseball hat with the Fighting Camel logo - my favorite next to my FRITO-Lay Sunflower growers hat. (farm country here & neighbors grow corn for them - as well as Oats for Cheerios)

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Any of the PSAC schools.    They are hemorraging students and most have given up any spending on wrestling but Edinboro was recently a top 10 program, Clarion has a history of individual champs, Lock Haven is the current best of the state schools.  Bloomsburg is barely hanging on.    A team title for any would mean so much to their future.
