The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga wrestling team will hold its annual Blue-Gold intrasquad match Thursday at 6:30 p.m. outdoors on Chamberlain Field, and there is no cost to attend.

"We are excited to try something new for the Blue-Gold match," coach Heath Eslinger said in a UTC release. "Chamberlain Field is right in the middle of campus and will provide a fun and unique venue for our guys to compete. We are all looking forward to it and hope for a big crowd."

The season starts Nov. 5 at 11 a.m. in Maclellan Gym against Southeastern, which is coached by former UTC standout Javier Maldonado. The Mocs also will be at home against VMI in the Candlelight Dinner Match on Nov. 10, against Virginia on Dec. 4 and against Campbell, Davidson and The Citadel on Jan. 8, Jan. 28 and Feb. 12, as well as hosting the Jan. 1-2 Southern Scuffle.
