Wrestling Coaches Split on Bringing Back National Duals

The college wrestling world is buzzing with debate over the return of the National Duals. Oklahoma State's coach, David Taylor, is eager to revive the event and believes it could be a great way to boost the sport's popularity. He suggested holding it in November before conference competitions, inviting all Division 1 colleges to participate. However, Penn State's coach, Cael Sanderson, isn't as enthusiastic. He thinks a big event doesn't need to include every team and isn't a fan of the National Duals.Sanderson believes there are other ways to create exciting events. Taylor, on the other hand, sees the National Duals as an opportunity to market teams and make the sport more engaging for casual fans. This debate comes as the NCAA announced the addition of women's wrestling, which both coaches support. Taylor is already training with female athletes and is excited about the future of the sport.
