The National Collegiate Open Wrestling Championship is a collegiate wrestling event that serves as a post season championship for NCAA Division-I athletes that are not wrestling in their conference championship. The event is traditionally known for the redshirting wrestlers entered[1] but often includes accomplished and seasoned wrestlers that were unable to make their program's starting line-up.[2]
