The NCAA Wrestling Championships are next week, but Daton Fix isn’t looking ahead too far.
On Wednesday night, the NCAA released seedings and brackets for the NCAA Championships in Kansas City, Missouri, and Fix is the No. 1 seed at 133 pounds. The only Oklahoma State wrestler to earn a top seed.
“It doesn’t really matter at all,” said Fix, who is looking for his first national title. “Just places me in the bracket. I’ve gotta win five matches, and it doesn’t matter who I’m wrestling.”
OSU coach John Smith agrees. All 10 of his starters are seeded in the bracket, with five Cowboys ranked in the top 10 of their weights.
