Seeds announced for National Duals Championship Finals

The brackets and seeds for the 2013 National Wrestling Coaches Association/Cliff Keen National Dual Meet Championship Finals have been released. The No. 2 Iowa wrestling team received the second overall seed, behind Oklahoma State.

The National Duals are scheduled for Fruiday and Satureday in Williams Arena on the campus of third-seeded Minnesota. The first two duals in the quarterfinals will begin at 6 p.m. on Friday before the final two take place at 8 p.m.

Saturday’s semifinals will start at 1 p.m. and will decide which teams will wrestle for first-place and third at 7 p.m. Ohio State rounds out the top four seeds.

Ohio State will face fifth-seeded Missouri in the first round. The winner of that dual will wrestle the winner of Oklahoma State and eighth-seeded Illinois in the first semifinal. Iowa’s first-round foe is seventh-seeded Cornell. The winner of that dual will get either Minnesota or sixth-seeded Virginia Tech in the second semifinal.

Iowa finished third in last year’s National Duals.
