Cenzo becomes the second former Nittany Lion to land an assistant coaching gig this offseason. His former teammate Mark Hall is back in State College as a volunteer assistant for Penn State.

Joseph wrestled from 2016 to 2020 before his time with the program was cut when Covid-19 struck. Cenzo was a two time National Champion and a three time finalist. He took home the titles in 2017 and 2018 and was a runner up in 2019. The three time All American had an 89-9 career record.

This pick up is awesome for the Stanford program, my one question is will Cenzo still be able to be a part of the Baschamania podcast that he cohosts? I hope so because he’s an awesome personality.
