Manheim, PA – The National Wrestling Coaches Association has announced the 2020 Division II All-American teams.  Each year the NWCA recognizes the outstanding work of the DII Student-athletes by naming the All-Americans based on their achievements in the national championship, however, this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic the championships were canceled.  

All-American honors were based on each wrestler’s overall body of work through the super-regional tournaments and up to the national championships. 

“With the cancellation of the national tournament the NWCA Division II leadership group thought it was still very appropriate to name All-Americans this year. The leadership group did a great job of weighing different options and polling the membership.  We are happy that we can make the most out of an incredibly unfortunate situation. Although this is not the same as having a national tournament, these individuals should be recognized for their amazing season results and super-regional tournaments. Congratulations to the 2020 All-Americans and National Qualifiers. “

Jason Warthan, NWCA Division II President & University of Indianapolis Head Coach
