NCAA Wrestling Championship 2015: Brackets, Individual Finals to Watch

Timothy RappMar 21, 2015

While the team title has already been decided at this year's NCAA wrestling championship tournament, there is the little matter left of deciding the national champions at each weight class.

With one man going for a slice of history and a number of other intriguing contests to follow, Saturday night will offer the best wrestling yet at this showcase event.

Let's take a look at the brackets and a few of the matches that will end the tournament on a high note.

Matches to Watch

Ohio State already made history at this tournament, clinching its first-ever team title. But the Buckeyes have more to earn on Saturday night, as Todd Jones of The Columbus Dispatch notes:

"

OSU has a chance to make more history tonight when Logan Stieber, a senior from Monroeville, Ohio, wrestles with a chance to become only the fourth man ever to win four NCAA championships.

Two other OSU wrestlers – redshirt freshman Nathan Tomasello and true freshman Kyle Snyder – will also compete for NCAA titles tonight in their respective weight classes.

“Tonight is about three people who have huge dreams,” Ryan said. “Tonight is about them and putting an exclamation put on a great weekend for our program.”

"

Adam Amin has more on Stieber:

Stieber faces a stiff challenge in No. 2 seed Mitchell Port of Edinboro. Stieber did beat Port already this seasona 6-3 victory in February. That was a bit of payback for the Stieber family, per Jones, as Port beat Hunter Stieber—Logan's younger brother—in the NCAA semifinals at 133 pounds.

This time around, however, Stieber's motivation is likely more about making history than about revenge.

Betting against Stieber—who has 49 straight wins under his belt—probably isn't a wise idea.

Of course, outside of Stieber's quest for history, there are more storylines to follow on Saturday.

Missouri's J'Den Cox is a man to watch, as he comes into the final as the top-ranked wrestler in the country and a defending national champion. Just a sophomore, he has all the makings of a talent who could find himself in Stieber's shoes two years from now.

And then there's Lehigh's Nathaniel Brown, who has become one of the stories of the tournament after defeating No. 2 seed Max Thomusseit of Pittsburgh and Kenny Courts of Ohio State to reach the final. If he can pull off the upset of top seed Gabe Dean of Cornell, it would be quite the run for Brown.

So there are a few storylines and top wrestlers to watch on Saturday night.

It's going to be a heck of a finish to an excellent tournament.
