The ESPN networks will broadcast live coverage once again from all three days of the NCAA Wrestling Championships, which begin Thursday in St. Louis. In addition, ESPN3 will stream every match via the ESPN app.

Penn State qualified nine wrestlers for the NCA Championships. Four Lions are seeded among the top four wrestlers in their weight classes: Aaron Brooks (No. 1 at 184 pounds), Roman Bravo-Young (No. 2 at 133), Nick Lee (No. 2 at 141) and Carter Starocci (No. 3 at 174).
