    Seeds released for Big 12 Championships

    The Big 12 Conference finalized the seeding for the 2016 Big 12 Wrestling Championship, which is set for March 5-6 at Sprint Center in Kansas City. Oklahoma State leads the way with five top-seeded wrestlers, while Oklahoma tallies behind with two. North Dakota State, South Dakota State and West Virginia all have one wrestler in the top spot.

    All ten schools will place a wrestler in each weight class. The seeds, as voted by the conference coaches, will compete over two days for 36 automatic qualifying bids to the NCAA Championships, as well as the 2016 Big 12 Championship team title.

    Oklahoma State's Dean Heil (141 pounds), Anthony Collica (149 pounds), Alex Dieringer (165 pounds), Chandler Rogers (174 pounds) and Austin Marsden (heavyweight) lead the way as the No. 1 seeds for the Cowboys. Ryan Millhof (125 pounds) and defending NCAA Champion Cody Brewer (133 pounds) slot in as the top seeds for the Sooners. SDSU's Cody Pack (157 pounds), NDSU's Hayden Zillmer (184 pounds) and WVU's Jake Smith (197 pounds) round out the top of the brackets for the conference.
