Missouri Border Brawl returns to St. Louis on March 14, showcasing high school stars prior to NCAAs

TDR Editor’s Note; An interesting promotional idea that provides top level high school wrestlers a chance to be a part of the NCAA experience. It is great to see how the NCAA Championship Tournament has grown from just a tournament into a series of events, a gathering that will provide more positive attention and publicity for our sport.

This event will kick off NCAA Div. I Wrestling Week, which will be held in St. Louis again this year. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Xtreme Couture GI Foundation (www.xcgif.org).
