No. 8 UNC wrestling, No. 3 NC State amp up for top-10 showdown

Posted Feb 6, 2020
The Triangle is known for basketball rivalries but a new rivalry has been brewing over the years. NC State wrestling will host UNC on Friday in a top 10 showdown. "It's the first time in the history of the programs that we both have top ten teams," UNC wrestling coach Coleman Scott said. No. 8 UNC and No. 3 NC State shared the ACC title in 2019.
