Always Aggressive - Purdue Wrestling Podcast

Head Coach Tony Ersland joins hosts Tanner Lipsett and Cory Palm to take you inside what a recruiting visit is like at Purdue University, which can range from walking on the field at a sold-out football game, meeting legendary Boilermakers like Drew Brees and even going axe-throwing. The guys also talk about the upcoming World Championships in Oslo and what steps Purdue Wrestling is taking to ensure future world teams will include Boilermakers.
