SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. — The Cal Poly wrestling program will hold a special 75th Anniversary Celebration during its 2023-24 season-opening weekend on Nov. 3-4, featuring a golf tournament, a pair of duals against Rutgers and Duke at Mott Athletics Center, a parade of All-Americans and a scheduled keynote speech from alum Victor Glover, the first Black astronaut to complete a long-term stay on the International Space Station.
The jam-packed weekend celebrating 75 years of Cal Poly wrestling kicks off at 9 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 3, with the program's 20th annual golf tournament at the Avila Beach Golf Resort. A 75th Anniversary ceremony will take place on Saturday, Nov. 4, with Glover, a former Cal Poly wrestler, giving the keynote speech (subject to change by NASA). Glover served as pilot and second-in-command on the SpaceX Crew Dragon, named Resilience, which launched in November 2020, and was recently named the pilot for the crew that will travel around the moon on Artemis II, the first crewed mission on NASA's journey to establishing a long-term lunar presence for science and exploration.
Action on the mat gets underway on the evening of Friday, Nov. 3, as the Mustangs host a pair of duals at the Mott Athletics Center to open their 2023-24 season. First at 6 p.m., Cal Poly takes on Duke. Then the team caps the night at 7:30 p.m. by hosting Rutgers, ranked No. 14 in InterMat's preseason national rankings.
Prior to facing the Scarlet Knights, the Mustangs will hold a parade of All-Americans to honor the 116 Division I and Division II All-Americans during the program's history.
On Saturday, the program will hold an open practice in the Rec Center wrestling room starting at 9 a.m. Then Cal Poly's 75th Anniversary Celebration will take place in the Multi-Activity Center on campus, with a cocktail hour and silent action beginning at 2:30 p.m. Dinner will be served at 3:30 p.m. with the program for the event to follow soon after.
