Eastern senior Hank Stinson said tonight that he has committed to attend Penn State on a wrestling scholarship.

Penn State coach Cael Sanderson attended Eastern's match against Camden Catholic on Friday night.

Stinson scored a first-period pin to improve his record to 15-3.

Stinson said Sanderrson visited the Stinson residence on Saturday. Sanderson is one of the most famous wrestlers in U.S. hisotry, having compiled a 159-0 record during his career at Iowa State.

"It's just the perfect combination," Stinson said. "It's a great coach, and it's driving distance and my parents came come up and watch me wrestle."

Stinson is the third Eastern wrestler to commit to a Big Ten school. Anthony Baldosaro has committed to Iowa and Preston Keiffer has committed to Indiana.
