NCAA's Next Week - Brackets, Watching, and Other Info

Oregon State Wrestling Fans,

The grand finale of the wrestling season begins in just one week! The NCAA Tournament takes place in St Louis, MO, over three days - March 16-18, Thursday through Saturday.

Five Beavers will be included in the action - Joey Palmer, Jack Hathaway, Joey Delgado, Corey Griego and Cody Crawford. Best of Luck to all!

The brackets are out - you can find them several ways. I have them downloaded for you. You can find them on-line posted from the NCAA tournament site or the most recent osubeavers.com article. If you prefer the FloWrestling style of bracket, they have the brackets posted as well.

Those of you who have tickets, you get to enjoy the action live. For the rest of us, coverage will be almost as good as being there if you have access to television or internet.

ESPN will have live coverage of all sessions this year! If you want to watch the individual matches of your choice - use ESPN3 on-line. To read all about your choices from ESPN, check this press release. Thank you to FALL Board member Michael Denison for passing along the link to that press release!

Brooks Hatch has been busy writing articles for osubeavers.com since my last email. Here are links to all the recent articles:

The website for the NCAA Tournament is a great resource for any questions you may have.
