1 } – The college wrestling weekend is loaded with meaningful matches, and we preview them here
Most of the top ten teams in the country will strap on their headgear and take to the mats this week, and three of those top teams hail from the same conference. No. 1 Iowa, No. 7 Nebraska and No. 10 Illinois will headline this weekend of college wrestling, with all three expected to walk away with dominant wins, but there’s far more intrigue than the rankings might suggest.

The first few weeks of the season have shown that anything can happen, and here are some more of the biggest questions heading into this particular weekend that have championship implications.

MILLERSVILLE, Pa. – In such unprecedented times, the Millersville wrestling team is utilizing everything at its disposal to improve. Hours that would usually be spent on managing weight or preparing for upcoming matches has instead been used to work on fine-tuning and diagnosing areas of need that should pay off in the long run. “We were able to kind of individualize some training and really dive into different situations and dissect them like scientists,” said head coach Kerry Regner. “You don’t always do that because usually from September through March you’re focused on training. A lot of times there’s no sense of urgency to stop and say “Hey, let’s go over this.” So that’s what we’re doing this fall.”  “I think something that the coaching staff does well here is we individualize the athletes’ strengths and weaknesses.  … rest of story at https://millersvilleathletics.com/news/2020/12/8/state-of-the-marauders-wrestling-using-opportunities-to-diagnose-design-and-improve.aspx?mc_cid=372ecbefe1&mc_eid=2ef7cbca4b

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — In a year with so many people being unemployed and many families struggling to make ends meet, the holidays can be a challenging time.  So this holiday season, the Bellarmine Knights wrestling team wanted to give back to the community once again by adopting a family for Christmas. The team thought it would be an excellent way to spread some cheer in a year tarnished so severely by COVID-19.  The Knights reached deep into their own pockets and raised an unprecedented amount of nearly $600, which was enough money to not only adopt one family but two this year. Both families that were chosen are facing extreme hardships, even beyond those that most have in a pandemic year. The first family chosen was that of a young man, who lost his father several years ago, and is currently being raised by a step grandfather who is presently dealing with many serious health issues of his own. The team also adopted a young girl, who is battling leukemia, and her siblings. … rest of story at https://athletics.bellarmine.edu/news/2020/12/22/wrestling-adopts-families-in-need-for-christmas.aspx?mc_cid=f9e49e1788&mc_eid=2ef7cbca4b

Since then, the farm has been maintained by Cael’s grandfather, who wrestled in high school, as well as his dad and uncle, Chad and Carl, who combined for three Minnesota state titles and both competed for the Gophers in the 1990s.  Now, Cael, who has two state titles in his own right for Willmar High School, has every intention of following in his family’s footsteps and becoming a fifth-generation dairy farmer. Before that, he hopes to build on an impressive debut as a true freshman in 2019-20. … rest of story at https://gophersports.com/news/2020/12/22/wrestling-cael-carlson-family-and-farming.aspx?mc_cid=f9e49e1788&mc_eid=2ef7cbca4b
