Last weekend saw lots of tournaments, while this weekend has many great dual matchups.
One of the “matches of the year” takes place today, which kicks off an exciting weekend of wrestling. Tonight, #4 Missouri travels to Columbus, OH to take on #6 Ohio State. The question here will be which wrestlers will be healthy for Missouri. OSU is moving on with the season after losing KeShawn Hayes for the season with an injury.
#5 Nebraska travels out to North Carolina where they’ll take on #15 North Carolina State and #28 North Carolina in back-to-back days.
On Saturday, the state of Iowa has their instate battle between #3 Iowa and #11 Iowa State. Iowa State has been struggling a little bit lately, while Iowa has lost Cory Clark for an unknown period of time with an injury. The Hawkeyes are still heavily favored here, but look for some good matchups to see how each team is coming along. Is Marinelli‘s shirt going to be removed yet?
There are two other good duals that will occur on Sunday, the first is #9 Wisconsin taking on #10 Northern Iowa, and also a Big Ten battle between #12 Michigan and #13 Minnesota.
