National Duals info
Penn State, Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Iowa, Ohio State, Stanford, Michigan, Iowa State, Minnesota and NC State have all received automatic qualifier invitations. Because all four of last year’s National Duals Invitational top finishers also placed in the NCAA Championships’ top 10, only 10 automatic qualification spots will be awarded in 2026
I imagine we would put our hats in the ring for one of the remaining 6 spots. Trumble winning the title and pushing us to 11th cost us an auto bid.

One of the biggest story lines next year will be Bo and his adjustment to college. He's really good, and an insightful listen. There will be other story lines played out like is OSU closing the gap on PSU (PSU won't attend imo) but VT stands to be a large player in the national wrestling news. VT has some exciting talent, a lightning rod of people wanting to see Bo become a legend or fail, as well as the Melvin going to "Jax." I don't think he will but I'm not certain anyone knows for certain. If all our guys hold weight down, Seidel 33 etc. Melvin could be an immediate factor at 57. If he's a 65, maybe you let Mitchell graduate before starting.

lottery with ping pong balls in a hopper. If that is the case again, it's luck of the draw...

Some of the teams that got in over Iowa State were glaring issues.
