2021 Tri-Valley Alumni and Wrestler Cullen Van Rooyen Pins Down Two Wins for Pennsylvania College of Technology at the 89th Wilkes Open

Athlete and 2021 Tri-Valley High School graduate, Cullen Van Rooyen, is in his sophomore year at Pennsylvania College of Technology in Williamsport, Pennsylvania where he is majoring in Welding & Fabrication Technology.

Once a Dawg, but now a Wild Cat, Van Rooyen (157) has added two wins to his wrestling career in one of his latest matches, the 89th Wilkes Open.

“At the Wilkes Open, also known as the ‘Rose Bowl of College Wrestling,’ we had an extremely productive day as a program. The Wilkes Open is always an incredibly deep field that includes teams across all three (NCAA) divisions. Our guys had the opportunity to match up with opponents from the Big Ten, like D-I Rutgers; MAC competition, in D-I Bloomsburg; and EIWA D-I programs like Franklin and Marshall and Sacred Heart,” first-year coach Pankil Chander said.
