Coon vs. Snyder for NCAA Title on Saturday Night; 8 pm on ESPN2
Saturday night is shaping up to be a great sports night for the University of Michigan.
This was included in the comments of the wrestling thread from yesterday, but it deserves its own thread.
Stevan Micic (133 pounds) and Adam Coon (heavyweight) both wrestled their way into the NCAA finals today. The finals start at 8 p.m. Saturday, and they're being broadcast on ESPN2.
Coon will be wrestling OSU's Kyle Snyder, a 2016 Olympic gold medalist, for the third time this season. Coon, as you know, won the first match during the Michigan-OSU dual meet, and then Snyder barely beat him in OT at the Big Tens. This is the rubber match, and I will be watching. I believe the heavyweights go last, so this will probably be starting right about the time we tip off against Houston.

Snyder has a hand taped from an injury yesterday. Didn't affect him in his semi match that he dominated but it may be an issue dealing with the size of Coon.
