St. Cloud, Minn. – No. 2 St. Cloud State Wrestling closes out their 2021-22 regular season campaign with a road dual at No. 10 Augustana on Thursday, a match featuring the final two undefeated Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference teams. The winner will be crowned 2021-22 NSIC Champions, with the Huskies seeking their 11th consecutive conference title. Thursday's dual is set to begin at 7:00 p.m. CT at the Elmen Center.
