Reviewing the NCAA Wrestling Championships

Another season of Mizzou Wrestling has come to a close, one that will surely be remembered for years to come for the twists and turns of its final months. The Tigers came into the year with high expectations and largely delivered on that promise until a bizarre sequence of illnesses and injuries conspired to douse the flame of potential this team displayed.

Mizzou ended the NCAA Championships in a tie for 11th, its lowest finish since 2014. The Tigers finished with three All-Americans, two wrestlers who fell just short of reaching that distinction with losses in the blood round, and five who were eliminated on the first day.
