DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The 2013 Cadet National Duals will be held at the Ocean Center – Exhibit Hall in Daytona Beach, Fla. from June 12-15.

The dual meet style tournament will feature some of the nation’s best 15 and 16 year old wrestlers competing on state association teams in both Olympic styles.  Daytona Beach is hosting the event for the third straight year.

Team Illinois won the Greco-Roman tournament last year by defeating Minnesota 40-24 in the finals.  But Illinois saw its hot dual meet streak come to an end against Pennsylvania Blue in the freestyle tournament.  The young men from the keystone state edged Team Illinois 33-30 in an exciting finals.

The final dual of this year’s Cadet National Duals in both styles will be streamed live on themat.tv.
