The Appalachian State University wrestling team has been thumping
opponents for 28 years now, thanks to coach Paul Mance.
Mance now stands at 299 wins during his head coaching tenure, with
the opportunity to get to 300 this weekend.
The Mountaineers will head to James Madison University and have
two opportunities to grab a win against James Madison and Rider
University.
“I really don’t pay much attention
to winning or losing. When you’ve been coaching for 32 years,
one win or loss doesn’t mean much,” Mance said.

slam Wofford 65-48 |

Appalachian State University, in the midst of a season-long losing
streak on the road, took out its frustration on Wofford College
with a resounding 65-48 hammering of the hapless Terriers.
For the first time all season, the game was never in doubt.
Using the same full-court press that helped them win against the
University of North Carolina at Greensboro, the lady Mountaineers
took a 26-17 halftime lead.
Appalachian increased its defensive pressure in the second half
and slowly built a 20-point lead against the Terriers. The defense
held Wofford to 35 percent shooting for the game and held guard
Ricaye Harris to seven points on a 3-of-10 shooting performance.

Seven is not a lucky number for everyone.

against College of Charleston Tuesday, 65-63.
Appalachian fell to 8-16 overall, 3-8 for the conference and are
in danger of getting the last seed from their division in the upcoming
Southern Conference Tournament.
