Qualifiers announced for DI wrestling championships

INDIANAPOLIS -- The NCAA on Wednesday announced the 330 student-athletes, including 45 at-large selections, for the 2014 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships.

The at-large wrestlers join 285 student-athletes that qualified automatically through the conference and regional qualifying tournaments during the past two weekends. The at-large selections were made by the NCAA Division I Wrestling Committee using a selection criteria: head-to-head competition, quality wins, results against common opponents, winning percentage, rating percentage index, coaches ranking, qualifying event placement, and number of matches contested at that weight class.

The 2014 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships may have a different finals match order. The weight class order of the championship matches will be announced following Session V on March 22. The NCAA Division I Wrestling Committee believes this change will create the best possible live and broadcast event for the wrestling community, as well as enhancing the championship experience for the student-athletes.

The wrestling community is encouraged to participate in the discussion of the finals match order by expressing its opinion on the NCAA social media platforms (Facebook.com/NCAAWrestling; @NCAAWrestling on Twitter; #D1Wrestle).

The 2014 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships return to Oklahoma City on March 20-22 at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. New ticket options, including hospitality, are still available. Visit ncaa.com/wrestling to purchase.
