Oklahoma State is the defending team champion at the event. Check out this recap from OSU’s win in 2024.

With such a sizeable field, the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational is the perfect way to get a feel for the current collegiate wrestling landscape all in one place. It usually doesn’t happen again until national titles are on the line at the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships each year. 

The Cliff Keen Invitational comes just a couple weeks after wrestling fans were treated to the inaugural National Duals Invitational Sponsored by Paycom, which featured 16 of the nation’s top teams and also was broadcast live on FloWrestling. 

The new tournament included 11 of the top 12 teams from the 2025 Division I Wrestling Championships and eight of the top 10 teams in the previous version of the FloWrestling NCAA Division I Wrestling Rankings.

The 2025 National Duals Invitational replay can be found in the FloWrestling archives and would be the perfect warm-up before settling in to watch the Cliff Keen Invitational.
