The late Harold Rogers who we sadly lost in 2006, was one of the best for the Wolves. His junior & senior seasons, his only regular season losses were to two time NCAA Division I champion/future 1996 Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle. Rogers placed twice at the NCAA Division II championships, taking runner-up honors in 1991 & fifth place in 1992.

He may not have been very big, but Kendall Southerland was a monster on both the gridiron and on the mat. As a football player, Southerland played linebacker for the Wolves. In wrestling he made the NCAA Division II finals in 1992.
Looking for a photo of the logo that was used by Cheyney for their wrestling program ... can't believe there is literally nothing on the internet : ( Does anyone happen to have a photo?
