If you’re a fan of folkstyle wrestling and want a glimpse of the top young wrestlers in the nation, the Defense Soap Super 32 Challenge is a can’t-miss event that absolutely should be on your radar.

Not only will the 2025 event feature many of the top high school athletes in the country – including 200 nationally ranked boys and more than 150 nationally ranked girls – the two-day tournament also serves as a crystal ball of sorts, as the field will include future stars just now competing in the Elementary School 8 & Under Division.

This year, the Super 32 Challenge will be held Oct. 18-19 at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina, and we’ve got the schedule for you.

About The Super 32 Challenge

The Super 32 Challenge debuted in the mid-1990s as a preseason event and fundraiser at Morehead High School in North Carolina, attracting a few dozen entries from the Tarheel State and nearby Virginia.

As a new century began, so too did a new era for the event, which got a name change and immediately grew in prestige, as the Super 32 was the formal name of North Carolina high school wrestling rankings. 

The result was instant credibility and immediate growth, and the event continues to serve as a stepping stone for so many wrestlers who go on to find success in college, and even globally, including the Olympics.
