1. Each roster must have exactly one wrestler at every seed.
2. Withdrawal Rule - Once the deadline hits for adding or changing teams, you not be allowed to modify your lineup. You will have until the official starting time of the first round of the College National Wrestling Tournament to add rosters or make changes to existing rosters. If a wrestler withdraws from the tournament prior to its start, and that wrestler is on your roster, you will not receive any points for that seed. Therefore, you should make a final check of your rosters prior to the submission deadline to insure you don’t have this issue. *Our best effort will be made to place notifications on the roster page and Twitter as soon as we can after learning of a wrestler withdrawal but you are ultimately responsible for changing your lineup.
