FARGO, N.D. - North Dakota State wrestling 125 pounder Ezekiel Witt has been selected to compete in the 2026 NWCA All-Star Classic on November 24.
Lined up for the Tuesday prior to Thanksgiving, Witt, who enters the year at #9 in the FloWrestling rankings, will compete in the highly-anticipated exhibition event against #5 Eddie Ventresca of Virginia Tech. It will be the second time that Witt and Ventresca face off in their college careers, with the Virginia Tech wrestler edging Witt in sudden victory in the 2026 Southern Scuffle championship match.

The 2026 NWCA All-Star Classic will take place at Penn State's Rec Hall in State College, Pennsylvania. Witt will compete in one of 15 matches in the event, which will be streamed live on FloWrestling.
