MADISON, Wis. — Two Wisconsin wrestlers  — 2022 NCAA All-Americans Austin Gomez (149) and Dean Hamiti (165) —  are set to compete in the National Wrestling Coaches Association All-Star Classic presented by Cliff Keen on November 22 in Austin, Texas.

After a four-year hiatus, the NWCA All-Star classic returns to action and is noted as one of the best wrestling events of the year. There are 11 confirmed men's matches. Every single wrestler on the card is a returning All-American. Wisconsin is one of only four schools with multiple wrestlers competing and one of only three Big Ten schools, joining Iowa and Penn State with two or more invited wrestlers at the elite event.

At 149 pounds, Gomez is set to face Sammy Sasso (Ohio State), the 2021 Big Ten Champion, in a re-match of the 2022 Big Ten Championship bout in which Gomez earned the upset victory 8-5 and the league title. Gomez completed his first year as a Badger with a 23-4 overall record and was also named the 2022 Co-Outstanding Wrestler of the Big Ten Championship. Sasso and Gomez are respectively ranked No. 1 and No. 2 at 149 pounds by Intermat.

At 165 pounds, Hamiti, who as a true freshman was widely considered one of the nation's most dominant wrestlers last season and finished with a 28-4 record, is set to take on 2022 NCAA and Big 12 Champion Keegan O'Toole (Missouri). Hamiti finished third at the Big Ten Championships and was named the 2022 Big Ten Freshman of the Year. This will be the first meeting between Hamiti and O'Toole.

The event will be streamed LIVE on FloWrestling.
