Pat Popolizio and the NC State wrestling team went to St. Louis this weekend looking for the program’s second-ever team trophy (top-4 finish) at nationals. After three days of grinding action, they ultimately fell just short of that goal, taking 6th place. Expectations were high for this team - they returned every starter from the 2019-2020 squad, and had an excellent, albeit shortened, regular season that culminated with their third consecutive ACC Tournament title. That impressive campaign positioned them for a 3rd place finish at NCAAs if they could wrestle to their seeds. Unfortunately, too many little things seemed not to fall in the Pack’s favor at Enterprise Arena.
