Season Outlook:
Augsburg has set a goal to become the fist team in NCAA DIII Wrestling history to win the NCAA Wrestling Team Championship and the NWCA Academic Team Championship in the same year. Solomon Nielsen graduated and is joining the coaching staff, but the entire rest of the lineup returns from last year’s NCAA 3rd place team finish and NWCA Academic National Championship Team. All 10 spots will be contested with the depth of the room and the talented group of incoming freshmen.

  1. Tough to replace Solo, but too early to call 10 wrestlers to Nationals? Tons of depth and best of all plenty of starters with postseason experience.
