BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The No. 15-ranked University of Pennsylvania wrestling team opened the 2022-23 season at the 2022 Journeymen Collegiate Classic on Sunday. The one-day event took place at Freedom High School in Bethlehem, Pa. Anthony Artalona and Doug Zapf have traded weight classes and as a result both took home the Hammer awards.

The 2022-23 team picked up right where the 2021-22 team left off as the Red and Blue had at least one wrestler finish in the top four of each weight class, including taking third and fourth place at 184. John Stout defeated Max Hale, 3-1 to take third place.

Ryan Miller (125), Michael Colaiocco (133), and Lucas Revano (165) all took home second place at their respective weight classes.  

Freshmen Brady Pruett, Evan Mougalian, and Kyle Hauserman all made their collegiate debuts. Mougalian and Hauserman won their debut bout. Mougalian earned a major decision over Army's Rich Treanor (14-4) and Hauserman pinned Sacred Heart's AJ Pizzirusso (2-0, 2:47).

Junior John Stout returned to the collegiate mat after taking a gap year during the 2021-22 season. In his return, the Waretown, N.J. native went 2-1 earning wins over Arizona State's Anthony Montalvo (M FOR) and Max Hale (3-1 SV).

Zapf, Artalona, Jeremy Ridge, and Jake Stefanowicz all came out victorious in every bout they wrestled on Sunday.
