    Nagel and Konrad claim titles in tune-up for NWCA All-Star Classic

    MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota All-Americans Matt Nagel and Cole Konrad claimed titles at the Auggie Open on Saturday on the campus of Augsburg College. The duo, along with Mack Reiter, will next travel to Stillwater, Okla., for the NWCA/Marines All-Star Classic on Monday night.

    Nagel went 3-0 in the 165 pound bracket and won the title with a 9-5 decision against Augsburg's Ryan Valek. Nagel pinned the Auggies' Brandon Klukow in 3:24 in his first match and then advanced to the finals with a 6-5 decision against Dubuque's Cole Williams.

    Konrad had little trouble in the heavyweight bracket as he won the title by default against Augsburg's Andrew Neumann. Konrad needed just 45 seconds to pin St. John's Jason Finley in his first match. He then posted a technical fall over Tim Johnson in the semifinals.

    In Monday's all-star exhibition, Nagel will face defending NCAA Champion Johny Hendricks of Oklahoma State, while Konrad will meet two-time champion Steve Mocco of Oklahoma State in a rematch of last year's NCAA Finals. The Classic will be aired tape- delay on College Sports Television on Wednesday.
