Check out this Penn State news release:
Penn State Wrestling Club
The club pays housing, training and medical costs of those nine wrestlers. A recent NCAA ruling allows those athletes to train with the Penn State athletes during their practices.
Having those resident athletes helps prepare the wrestling team by "just putting them in there against the best guys in the nation and just having them get thumped and force them to do things correctly," Sanderson said. "It's all a package deal for a student-athlete. ... We'll start seeing the rewards of that, I think, soon."
It's my understanding that previously there were all sorts of restrictions on club members working out with the student-athletes. If this is legit, what a bonus for Hawkeye wrestlers.
