National Collegiate Open
Willie Saylor, Editor
The National Collegiate Open has quietly developed into a must-follow event. The tournament, run by American University Head Coach, Teague Moore (and formerly of Clarion), features many up and comers. The competition is largely made up of emerging redshirts and talented non-starters. In recent years, current stars Jesse Delgado, Jared Garnett, Scott Schiller, Dylan Alton, Ty Wilps, and Nick Sulzer won NCO titles as redshirts.
Currently, the semi’s are set in the lightweights except for 133 where they are in quarterfinals. You can follow along with the brackets and results here.
