Carson Kuhn, who wrestled for Boise State University until the Idaho-based school announced it was eliminating its Division I wrestling program in April, will be wrestling for Penn State.
The 125-pounder announced his transfer to the Nittany Lion on social media Tuesday night; on Wednesday his name appeared on the roster at the official Penn State wrestling website.
"I'm happy to announce that I am a Nittany Lion!" Kuhn wrote on Instagram. "I will be wrestling for Penn State for my final semester of NCAA eligibility. It has been a crazy road to get here, but I want to thank all those who supported me on this journey. I would especially like to thank my amazing wife for her incredible support throughout this whole process and for always pushing me to be my best!"
Kuhn is eligible to wrestle for Penn State immediately.
Nick Suriano had been the Nittany Lions' starter at 125 until he was granted a transfer to Rutgers University in his native New Jersey earlier this season. This year, freshman Devin Schnupp has been Penn State's representative in that weight class, compiling an 0-5 record.
According to his newly posted PSU bio, Kuhn brings a 13-8 overall record, having wrestled both 125 and 133 in three years of competing at Boise State. The Sandy, Idaho native scored four pins, a technical fall and a major decision as a Bronco.
