DURHAM, N.C.—For the first time in Duke wrestling history, the Blue Devils will be represented at the prestigious early season dual of some of the nation’s top wrestlers as Conner Hartmann was selected for the Hire Heroes NWCA All-Star Classic presented by the Wrestlers in Business Network. The 50th anniversary of the event will be held Nov. 1 in Atlanta, Ga., and will be televised on ESPNU.
Ranked third in both the InterMat and FloWrestling preseason polls, Hartmann will go up against No. 5 Max Huntley of Michigan. The dual will be the first meeting between the two All-Americans.
