The first matchup for the "Night of Conflict 3" presented by Rudis is officially set. On October 13, Iowa native Cullan Schriever will take on Liberty, Missouri's Jeremiah Reno at one of college wrestling most iconic venues, Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa.

Schriever, one of Iowa's biggest stars, is set to make his NOC debut in this top 10 matchup with a fellow Fargo champion. Going into his sophomore season, Schriever is already considered the No. 3-ranked pound-for-pound wrestler in the state of Iowa, only behind three-time state champions Alex Thomsen and Brody Teske.

After winning a cadet freestyle national title as an eighth-grader, Schriever burst onto the high school scene with a bang, going undefeated on the way to a state title this past February. This offseason, Schriever has earned All-American honors at national events such as USA Wrestling's Folkstyle and Freestyle Nationals and UWW Cadet Freestyle Nationals. Schriever is currently ranked 10th at 106.

His opponent, the No. 6-ranked Reno, also won a cadet freestyle national title in 2016 at the weight above Schriever before ever wrestling a high school match. Like Schriever, Reno went undefeated on his way to a Missouri state championship. Reno finished second in back-to-back years at the UWW Cadet National tournament to cadet world champion Kurt McHenry and was also runner-up at USA Wrestling's Folkstyle Nationals this spring.

These two have met on one occasion, with Reno coming out on top 7-4 in the semifinals of the UWW Cadet freestyle tournament in Akron, Ohio, earlier this summer. You can watch their match from Akron above. 

VIP tickets are on sale now and can be purchased through EventBrite. General admission tickets are expected to go on sale later this month. Fans unable to attend the "Night of Conflict" in person are able to watch via live stream on Flowrestling.
