NEWS: State Wrestling is a day longer and starts a week later than usual. The dates for 2004 will be Feb. 25, 26, 27 and 28th. The 4 day format is expected to last through 2005 due to construction on emergency exits at Vets Auditorium.  Increasing the sessions also will allow 8 wrestlers to place instead of 6 because of the more time allowed for consolation matches.

 

Here is listing of the TV Stations carrying the finals, but hopefully you'll be at Vets in full effect to watch the event

WOI-TV Des Moines-Ames ABC-TV

WOWT-TV Omaha, NE NBC-TV
