A coveted Super 32 belt (photo courtesy of Sam Janicki; SJanickiPhoto.com)This weekend, the Super 32 takes place in Greensboro, North Carolina. From what once was a small, regional tournament has turned into the toughest folkstyle wrestling event in the country. MatScouts has done plenty of work detailing just how loaded the 2022 field is and how the action may play out.
The Super 32 already has enough history where we can look back at the past and see some of the talented wrestlers that have battled for belts in Greensboro. In fact, we didn't need to look back too far; it only took going back to March and the NCAA podium in Detroit to see some famous Super 32 alumni. Below are All-Americans at the 2022 NCAA DI Wrestling Championships who also placed at one time or another at the Super 32.
