LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – The Lock Haven wrestling team officially kicked off the 2022-23 season today with the 2022 Midday Matness, and as the season fast approaches three members of Lock Haven's Division I men's wrestling team will open the season listed in the individual preseason national rankings.
 
Under clear skies and sunshine, The Haven took things outside with the sixth edition of Midday Matness to mark the official opening of the season.
 
As the Bald Eagles approach the new season, InterMat Wrestling has the trio of Anthony Noto, Ashton Eyler and Isaac Reid ranked among the top-33 at their respective weight class.
 
Noto is ranked No. 13 at 125 pounds and Reid is ranked No. 15 at 285. Eyler is ranked No. 20 at 157 pounds, down a weight class from last season. All three were NCAA Division I national tournament qualifiers last season.  
 
Noto will look to repeat as a Mid-American Conference (MAC) champion after his individual title run helped power the Bald Eagle to their first MAC team championship. Eyler was second (165 lbs.) at the MAC Tournament a last season and Reid finished as runner-up as well.
The Bald Eagles' Crimson & White Dual is set for Friday, October 21. The annual Crimson & White exhibition wrestle-offs will take place in historic Roger's Gymnasium at 5 p.m. The Haven is also hosting a season ticket social on Thursday, October 20 at Haywood's on the Green from 6-8 p.m.
 
Lock Haven will officially open the 2022-23 season on Sunday, Nov. 6 at the Princeton Open. The Bald Eagles will open dual action on Friday, Nov. 11 with a long-awaited return to Rec Hall to take on local-rival and top-ranked Penn State.
 
The first home event of the season is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 27 as the Bald Eagles host the annual Mat-Town Open I tournament in Thomas Fieldhouse. On Thursday, Dec. 1, it will be a "White Out" in the fieldhouse as The Haven welcomes Davidson and former assistant coach Nate Carr, Jr. to town for a non-conference dual. Carr was named Davidson's new head coach in August.
