2010-11 St. Cloud State WreStling FaCt Book

St. Cloud State Traditions:History of the NicknameThe.Husky.Nickname:. St.. Cloud. State's. nickname. has.gone. through. several. changes. over. the. years.. Early.nicknames.included."Normals,"."Teachers,"."Bear.Cats,"."Peds,".and."Flying.Clouds."

There. are. several. theories. about. how. the. nickname."Huskies".began.to.be.used..One.says.that.it.is.a.result.of . a. student. contest.. Another. suggests. that. the. name.originated.with.the.football.team..

There.was. a. story. in. the. February. 4,. 1938,. edition. of .the. College. Chronicle. which. referred. to. the. "football.huskies.".Since.huskies.was.not.capitalized. in.the.story,.the.author.could.have.been.referring.to.the.team's.size,.and.this.possibly.led.to.the.nickname..Another. theory. is. that. the. nickname. originated.within.the. football. team.. "I. think. it. occurred. during. Coach.Kasch's. days. as. football. coach. (1935-42),". said. John.Weisman,.former.SCSU.Dean.of .Men.and.former.coach.."The.team.just.started.calling.themselves.the."Huskies.".

Why. the. name. was. chosen. or. who. exactly. selected. it.remains.unclear..The.name.could.have.been.intended.to.mean."burly,.robust.or.large,"."one.that.is.husky,".or."a.heavily.coated.working.dog.of .the.arctic.region.”

Perhaps.the.nickname.was.meant.to.encompass.all.three.meanings..Regardless.of .its.origin,.the.Husky.nickname.continues.to.represent.SCSU.as.a.symbol.and.image.of .strength.

The St. Cloud State RouserOh,.here.we.are,.the.gang.and.all,to.cheer.our.team.to.victory.SCSU.has.heard.the.call,We're.here.to.show.our.loyalty,.RAH!.RAH!Come.on.team.fight,.We'll.win.this.game,and.to.our.colors.we'll.be.true.We'll.sing.our.song,.both.loud.and.long,to.victory.—.S.C.S.U..

The St. Cloud State HymnSing. to. thee. our. Alma. Mater,. High. on. oak-crowned.banks,. Emblem. of . our. search. for. knowledge,. Symbol.of .our.youthful.ranks,.Filled.with.fires.of .true.ambition,.Let.us.ever.be;.Loyal.to.thy.fine.tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.

By.the.river’s.flowing.water,.By.its. islands.fair,.may.the.loyal.sons.and.daughters,.thy.enduring.friendship.share..May. they.with. sincere. ambition,. through. the. years. e’er.be;.Loyal.to.thy.fine.tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.

2010-11 St. Cloud State WreStling

As.coach.Steve.Costanzo.enters.his.fifth.season.at.the.helm.of .the.St..Cloud.State.University.wrestling.program,.the.Huskies.are.poised.to.take.yet.another.step.on.the.ladder.of .success.that.SCSU.has.been.climbing.over.the.past.three.seasons.

The.Huskies’.theme.this.season.is.“Rising.to.the.Top”.and.this.certainly.reflects.the.outlook.for.the.upcoming.2010-11.season.

“This.marks.my.fifth.season.with.the.team.and.it.has.really.been.a.work.in.progress,”.Costanzo.said...“I.have.been.fortunate.to.work.with.a.program.that.has.been.built.with.help.from.our.former.coaches,.par-ents.and.our.alumni...These.people.have.certainly.helped.build.the.win-ning.tradition.of .Husky.wrestling.over.the.years...and.I.am.just.proud.to.be.part.of .the.tradition.”

On.the.subject.of .this.year,.Costanzo.and.the.Huskies.should.be.prepared.to.make.another.charge.at.both.the.regional.and.national.level.in.NCAA.Division.II.wres-tling.

In.2009-10,.the.Huskies.charted.a.solid.14-7.overall.record,.which.included.a.5-2.third.place.mark.in.the.Northern.Sun.Inter-collegiate.Conference...

At.the.2010.NCAA.Division.II.Regional,.the.Huskies.repeated.with.another.second.place.finish.and.also.qualified.eight.wrestlers.for.the.NCAA.finals.

To.cap.the.campaign,.SCSU.finished.7th.at.the.2010.NCAA.Division.II.championships...This.performance.equals.the.Huskies’.best-ever.finish.at.the.NCAA.Division.II.finals.-.a.mark.they.also.hit.in.1983...This.was.also.SCSU’s.8th.top-10.place.finish.at.the.NCAA.championships.since.1975.

The.outlook.is.bright.for.SCSU.this.season.as.Costanzo.and.the.Huskies.will.bring.back.seven.of .those.NCAA.qualifiers.and.all.four.of .the.Huskies’.2010.All-Americans.

“On.paper,.this.looks.to.be.a.very.promising.season,”.Costan-zo.said...“We.will.be.bringing.back.a.lot.of .experience.this.season.and.we.also.will.benefit.from.an.outstanding.recruit.classs,.which.will.help.push.our.guys.and.make.us.a.better.team.”

The.Huskies.will.also.benefit.from.a.large.senior.class.this.winter,.which.will.provide.outstanding.leadership.on.the.mat.and.in.the.wrestling.room...This.groups.includes.seniors.Westy.Hanson.(133/141),.Gabe.Suarez.(141),.John.Sundgren.(157),.Derek.Skala.(184),.Erik.Rogness.(197).and.Chad.Kubasch.(149/157).

“These.seniors.are.the.heart.of .this.team,”.Costanzo.said...“This.type.of .leadership.will.be.one.of .the.keys.to.our.success.in.2010-11.”.

Here.is.a.rundown.of .each.weight.class.for.the.Huskies.in.2010-11:

125-Pounds:.Redshirt.freshman.Zach.Stewart.(Green.Bay,.Wis.).will.be.a.name.to.watch.at.125-pounds.this.winter.after.

133-Pounds: Senior.Westy.Hanson.(Crookston).will.be.a.top.contender.at.this.weight.class.but.look.for.a.strong.push.by.JUCO.transfer.Eric.Ellington.(Fairview.Heights,.Ill.),.who.gained.two.All-America.honors.during.his.tenure.at.Rend.Lake.C.C..down.in.Illinois...Cullan.Morrissey.(Lena,.Wis./Oconto.H.S.).and.Tyler.Mathison.(Fremont,.Neb.).are.other.talent.who.will.add.depth.at.this.division.

“Gabe.has.had.an.outstanding.career.at.SCSU,”.Costanzo.said...“He.keeps.getting.better.every.season,.and.if .he.can.stay.healthy,.I.believe.that.Gabe.has.a.shot.a.national.championship.this.winter.”.

SCSU’s.depth.shows.at.this.position.as.Suarez.will.be.pushed.by.freshman.Matt.Liebforth.(Lemont,.Ill.),.redshirt.sophomore.Chad.Schultz.(Mauston,.Wis.).and.freshman.Dustin.McKinney.(Luck,.Wis.).

149-Pounds:.Fans.will.probably.do.a.double-take.at.this.weight.class.thanks.to.the.presence.of .two.Jacob.Horn’s.on.the.roster.at.SCSU...True.sophomore.Jacob.R..Horn.(St..Michael).moved.into.a.starting.spot.last.winter.due.to.an.injury.in.the.SCSU.line-up.to.Jacob.Roberts...He.responded.with.22.victories.last.year.for.SCSU...
