The wrestling post-season is fast approaching as teams continue their preparation for regional and state tournaments. Below is a breakdown of where teams are headed for the regional round and then a schedule for the state tournament at Ball Arena.
Wrestlers must place in the top four of their respective regional for advancement to the state tournament. Four regional tournaments will be held in each classification and all tournaments will be conducted on February 11-12th at the sites below. Teams that finished in the top 12 in 2A-3A and top 16 in 4A-5A of the state tournament are spread by seed throughout the regional bracket with geography then used for the remaining teams. Numbers next to the teams below indicate their team finish at state a year ago.
Updates from each event will be available through Track Wrestling and we will post direct links to each tournament as they get started.
NOTE: we are still tracking down the regional pairings for girls wrestling and will post as we get them.
