National Wrestling Championships

If you’re a wrestling fan then come out this weekend to the U.S. Cellular Center for the Division III Wrestling National Championships. Competition will start heating up on Friday, March 5 and will continue throughout the day and conclude on Saturday, March 6.

Top contenders competing for the national team title include top ranked Augsburg College, followed by Wartburg College at number two, and our close to home Coe College Kohawks are ranked at number three.

Both Coe and Wartburg have qualified individual contenders in all 10 weight classes and look to compete well and finish out the year strong. Coe College senior, Tyler Burkle, and Coe College Junior Clayton Rush will be back in the circle again this weekend in front of their home crowd and are fired up and ready to go.

Burkle comes into the tournament ranked number one in the nation at 184 pounds and is ready for another run at the National Championship he won two years ago.

Win or lose, it is bound to be a great weekend of intense competition, so don’t miss out.
