2025 OhioWrestling.Net NCAA Pick'Em Contest

It's TIIIIIMMMMMMEEEEE!!!

Welcome to the 12th Annual OhioWrestling.Net NCAA Pick'em Contest!!

I'll list all past champs and other interesting tid-bits below.

I created the league - I'll update this post with all those that have joined the league.

You must log-in to MATKINGS.com, click "JOIN" and enter the code: 890371.

If you have any problems, email me (hiattb@mcburg.org) or post on here and I'll get back to you ASAP.

You must pick 1 person in each weight to have a valid entry. If not, that entry will be DQ'd.

Like always, please post below if you are willing to donate anything (instead of an entry fee) for the prize pool this year. If you'd like to be anonymous, let me know also. I want to be as transparent with all who donate (and play) about the $ so all who donate can be confident that their donations are going where they are supposed to go. Easiest way to make donations are through Venmo (Brady-Hiatt-7); PayPal (splitsoles@yahoo.com) or via Amazon Gift Card (splitsoles@gmail.com)

For their generous donations to the prize pool this year, a big thanks goes out to:

John Sullenbarger donated his Gold winnings to the prize pool for 2026 -- $232.50
Patrick Murphy donated his Silver winnings to the prize pool for 2026 -- $139.50
Anonymous Donation - $100
Bruce Andrews - $100
Mark Niemann - $10
Colt Yinger - $10
Collin Yinger - $10
Hank Kornblut -- 2 waygu steaks for Gold winner


I'll update information in this first post so check back here often.

Prizes:($602 Total)
Gold (50% of total): $$301 + 2 Waygu Steaks
Silver (30% of total): $180.60
Bronze (20% of total): $120.40

Median Finisher - "I'm Average" t-shirt (This year the 27th place finisher)

Last Place - Virtual Golden Plunger

The Gold, Silver, and Bronze prizes will be given in payments on via PayPal / Venmo or in gift cards of winners choice (with reason of what I can purchase locally or deliver online).

Excited for this again and hope it add enjoyment to an already incredible weekend of wrestling.
