The 2016 NCAA All-American will take on fellow All-American Brett Pfarr (Minnesota) in the Main Event at 197 lbs. Harner finished in eighth place at Madison Square Garden while Pfarr was third.

Zacherl will take on 3x ACC Champion George Dicamillo (Virginia) while Ronnie Perry will face Evan Cheek of Cleveland State.
