With its largest field ever, grapplers from around Washington state – including wrestlers from Edmonds-Woodway, Meadowdale and Lynnwood High Schools – will converge on the Tacoma Dome starting Friday, Feb. 15, to crown state champions.
The WIAA’s Mat Classic XXXI will fill the dome with wrestling competition for two straight days; state championship matches are slated to close out the event on Saturday starting at 5:00 p.m.
The regional round of the high school wrestling postseason was cancelled last weekend due to the inclement winter weather that all of Washington state experienced. The WIAA announced that all wrestlers that had qualified for state regionals would be automatically placed into the Mat Classic XXXI brackets, sending more than 2,650 wrestlers to the state championships.
Mat Classic XXXI early round matches involving Warrior, Maverick and Royal wrestlers will take place beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Friday; wrestlers who survive the double-elimination Friday rounds will continue on Saturday beginning at 9:45 a.m.
