MAC Announces Tournament Pre-Seeds

The Mid-American Conference announced their tournament pre-seeds for this weekend. The Missouri Tigers lead the way with six 1 seeds and three 2 seeds. Their lowest seeded man is Mike England at 165 pounds, he got the 5th seed. UNI comes in with only one 1 seed: Blaize Cabell at 285 pounds. The Panthers have two 2 seeded wrestlers, Dylan Peters at 125 and Cooper Moore at 165 pounds. There are three other squads with number one ranked wrestler each: Central Michigan at 141 with Zach Horan, Kent State at 157 with Ian Miller, and Old Dominion at 165 with Tristan Warner.

Obvousley the Tigers are going to be heavy favorites in the tournament, but don’t expect the Panthers, or any other team, to back down from the challenge. The complete pre-seeds can be found below, and we’ll have a weight by weight preview up later today or tomorrow.
