Penn State @ Drexel

Penn State men rolled to a 43-3 win at Drexel University in Philadelphia on December 5, 2025, dominating the dual with bonus-point finishes and a string of high-end performances. The Nittany Lions piled up bonus points across the lineup and left little room for a comeback, while Drexel’s offense was limited to a single decision.

The turning point came as Penn State strung together multiple bonus victories that put the dual out of reach. Marcus Blaze, ranked #7, finished Kyle Waterman by fall for six team points. Shayne Van Ness, the #1 at 149 pounds, posted a technical fall, 21-4, and Mitchell Mesenbrink, also ranked #1 at 165, closed his bout with a 20-4 technical fall, each adding major team momentum with maximal bonus scoring.

Penn State’s depth showed up in contested ranked matchups as well. Levi Haines, the other #1 on the card at 174, beat Drexel’s #17 Jasiah Queen 12-1 by major decision, adding to the bonus total and underscoring the gap between the teams across multiple weights.

With pins, technical falls, and majors accounting for the bulk of the scoring, Penn State turned a collection of individual bonus outcomes into a comprehensive 40-point victory. Drexel battled in stretches but could not match the Nittany Lions’ ability to finish matches, and Penn State left Philadelphia with a decisive dual meet win.
