Under Weiss, the wrestling program has undergone a meteoric ascent, culminating this season in the Crimson's first-ever Ivy League title and now its first EIWA crown as well.
The significance was not lost on the Harvard wrestlers this weekend.
"When [Assistant] Coach [Dustin] DeNunzio '99 was a freshman, Harvard finished 13th out of fourteen teams at Easterns," Picarsic said. "That was seven years ago."
While the EIWAs brought Harvard's team season to its conclusion, a remarkable six Crimson wrestlers have received bids to compete individually at the NCAA Championships, scheduled to start one week from Thursday at the University of Iowa.
Picarsic, Rechul, and Jantzen earned entries based on their performances this weekend, while Odom, O'Donnell and Volpe received wild-card berths.
