Here's a link to the Olympic Trials live webcast coverage. Support your sport and tune in. This coverage is from NBC, I would imagine that if they get a lot of traffic for this webcast they may show more coverage of the sport during the Olympic Games.

Washington’s Jordan Rogers won a silver medal at the Youth Olympic Games in 2010.

Fans heading to Iowa City for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials will have an opportunity to watch some of the nation’s best high school wrestlers compete.

The Dream Team Wrestling Classic is set to take place on Friday night at Iowa City West High School. The dual is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

The format will be a dual meet that will match the top Iowa high school seniors against some of the best wrestlers from around the country.

The dual will be a prelude to the Olympic Team Trials, set for Saturday and Sunday at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City.

Tickets for the Dream Team Classic are $10.

There will be a live webcast of the dual on themat.tv.

Among the wrestlers expected to compete are University of Iowa recruits Cory Clark, Alex Meyer and Nate Skonieczny.

Clark will face Penn State recruit Jimmy Gulibon at 126 pounds. Gulibon is ranked No. 1 nationally and Clark is ranked third.

I have a room that I'm not going to use this weekend in Iowa City. It's at the Iowa House Hotel (I think it's on the campus). It's only a single queen, and I can't remember what the rate was (I think $100 a night). Its for check in Friday and check out Sunday. PM me if you need the info. I need to cancel by tomorrow if there is no interest.

Based on the two line-ups I am seeing, Iowa is going to get beaten even worse than PA did at the Dapper Dan.

If you go to the olympic trials website you can order them and if they have any left they will hold them for you at the door. My wife called and ordered ours a few weeks back, you can even get them the day of if there are any left. They may be purchased as a single session ticket, a day pass or you can get a package deal for both days.
