Following the conclusion of the wrestle-back semi-finals the team race was back to a tight race.  North Dakota State maintained a ½ point lead over SDSU with 84.5 points to 84.0 for the Jackrabbits.  UNO moved into third place with 72.5 points followed by Southern Colorado with 69.5 points.  Central Oklahoma holds fifth place with 67.5 points.  Minnesota-State is a distant 6th with 50.5 points.      NDSU has one more finalist than SDSU and both teams have six All-Americans.  UNO has six All-Americans with five wrestlers in the consolations.  At this time the team race pits NDSU versus SDSU.  If the trend continues the two schools will face off at heavyweight for the individual title and possibly the team title.      The finals begin at 7:30 p.m.
