The Wrestling Classic, dubbed “The Rose Bowl of Wrestling”, is the most prestigious high school all-star wrestling meet in the United States. This first class event recognizes high school seniors who’ve had stellar wrestling careers, offering them an exciting competition in an all-star dual meet format.
The Wrestling Classic consists of two dual meets. The preliminary meet pits the best wrestlers from Western Pennsylvania or “WPIAL” against state champions from another state. The feature match showcases the best-of-the-best high school wrestlers from across the United States to challenge the reigning Pennsylvania State Champions.
Each year, approximately 3,500 enthusiastic spectators from the tri-state area watch the countries future NCAA, world and Olympic champions compete. Proceeds from the Wrestling Classic benefit a youth wrestling program at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania through the Dapper Dan Youth Sports Leagues. ~ NWCA
