College Wrestling returns to Iowa PBS in December for the first of seven college duals. This season’s coverage includes two Division I matchups — University of Iowa Women vs. Grand View University, and Iowa State University vs. South Dakota State University — as well as exciting meets and double-headers from Division III, NAIA and JUCO schools.

Calling the meets will be the legendary duo of Tim Johnson, “The Voice of College Wrestling,” and Jim Miller, 10-time NCAA Division III champion coach and five-time National Coach of the Year. Kyle Klingman with FloWrestling will join Johnson and Miller for the call on all women's duals.

“For decades, Iowa PBS has honored the sport of wrestling,” said Johnson. “But this — this unprecedented commitment to every level of college wrestling — is something truly special to witness.”

"With its deep legacy in our sport, Iowa PBS is once again breaking new ground," said Miller. "The variety of conferences included in this season's broadcasts honors wrestlers from all levels and offers something for every fan."
