Swartz also won the Pac-12 and sports an 18-4 record. Jake is ranked 10th in the nation and he too missed part of the season with a leg injury. Chriswell is 14-2 after winning the Pac-12, his third conference championship of his career.
Swartz is the #10 seed at 184 pounds and will meet Matt Ryan of West Virginia (19-4). Owen has to face #3 seed Tony Ramos of Iowa (28-3)in the first round at 133 pounds while Ivanov will take on Joshua Kreimier of Air Force. Chriswell challenges #5 Cayle Byers of Oklahoma State (23-3).
