Entries close at 10:00 am Central Time on Thursday March 18, 2010. Any edits or new lineups after that won't be counted!



Here's the rules!

The Set-up:

1. Each person will choose 10 wrestlers, one for each weight class.
2. You may choose up to 3 wrestlers that are seeded in the top 3.
3. You may choose up to 2 wrestlers from a single team.
4. NEW FOR 2009! You may choose up to 4 wrestlers from the same conference. But the total of Big 10 and Big 12 wrestlers cannot exceed 7 total wrestlers.
5. You may choose a wildcard (11th wrestler) from any conference. The wild card cannot be a top 8 seeded wrestler!!


Example: Say I choose 2 wrestlers from Minnesota; I can choose 2 additional wrestler from the big 10. i.e. Michigan, Wisconsin etc. After I’ve picked a wrestler from each weight, for a total of 10, I choose a wrestler from Iowa as my wildcard. The only stipulations on the wildcard is that he cannot be seeded in the top 8 or break rule 3. Rule 4 does not apply to the wildcard selection. This will now give me a total of 11 wrestlers on my team and all will be counted in the team scoring.


Team Scoring:

Pin 2 pts
T. Fall 1.5 pts
Major 1 pt

Championship bracket 2 pts advancement
Consolation bracket 1 pt advancement

1st 20 points
2nd 16 points
3rd 12 points
4th 9 points
5th 7 points
6th 5 points
7th 3 points
8th 1 point

Bonus of 15 points for an unseeded wrestler on your team that makes All-American.



Gonna be a little different keeping track of things while in Omaha!

From what I'm seeing lately, looks like the brackets will be out tomorrow night about 6:00 Central!

Printable brackets out at 6:00 central. They have a "video" feed of each weight class here if you want to watch.


Koehnlein got in!!!

Sorry Big D, now you have 5 extra days to research, tweak your selections, research some more then make a final change just before wrestling starts next Thursday! You just as well plan on not getting anything done for the next 8 days!!!
