Welcome to John Marshall Wrestling's "March Mattness" bracket competition! This competition will be based on the D1 NCAA Wrestling Championships on March 21-23, 2024.
Brackets can be viewed here: https://www.ncaa.com/_flysystem/public-s3/images/2024/03/13/2024NCAAd1Wrestlingbrackets.pdf
Now that the brackets have been released, you can choose your team!
Your team will consist of:
- 1 of each seed #1-10. For seeds 1-10, you can only choose 1 wrestler per weight class, so if you choose the #1 at 197, your 2-10 seed cannot also be in the 197 weight class.
- An 11 and 12 seed. Your 11&12 seeds can be from any weight.
- 1 "Wild Card" choice of a 13-33 seed from any weight class, giving you a total of 13 athletes on your 'team'.
Team score will decide the winner, based on normal tournament scoring. If there is a tie, tiebreaking criteria will be:
1. Most NCAA Champions
2. Most NCAA Finalists
3. Most top 4
4. Most AA's
5. Most Athletes in blood round
