Only had Wrestling for 7 seasons
FUN FACT:  Georgia State participated in the fastest duel meet in Division I history.   They defeated the Gardner-Webb Running Bulldogs 36-9 in a little over 12 minutes.   The reason why the duel meet went so fast is because there were six mats laid out for the Georgia State wrestling tournament the next day and all six mats were used for the duel.


Billy Maldonado who would transfer to Iowa State and place 6th at the 2002 NCAA championships, first wrestled for the Georgia State Panthers.  He qualified for the 1998 NCAA tournament where he went 2-2 for the Panthers.
