The road to the NCAA Wrestling Championship in Minneapolis starts in Piscataway, New Jersey. That’s right folks. For the first time ever, the Big Ten Wrestling Tournament will be held at the RAC, beginning this Saturday and concluding on Sunday.
Wrestling fans from across the country will flock to New Jersey to take in one of the best tournaments the sport has to offer. The Big Ten Tournament is mostly important for wrestlers trying to qualify for a spot in the NCAA Championships in Minneapolis just two weeks later.
Qualifying for the tournament is a bit of a confusing explanation for most casual fans.
