About St. John Arena

Ohio State’s home competitions take place in St. John Arena and four Buckeye matches will occur in the storied venue in 2013-14. The 93rd year of Buckeye wrestling will open with a home match vs. Notre Dame College on Nov. 15. The Scarlet and Gray subsequently will host Nebraska Jan. 24, Michigan Jan. 31, and Virginia Tech on Feb. 23.

After Buckeye fans set a record attendance of 5,341 in 2008 vs. Michigan, the Tom Ryan-led Ohio State program set another impressive record as 6,518 fans packed the arena in a match vs. Big Ten Conference rival Penn State Feb. 10, 2013.

In 2014, Ohio State will host the always much anticipated NWCA National Duals. St. John Arena will be the sought-after destination for the two-day tournament that will run Feb. 16-17. St. John Arena hosted the National Duals in 2002 and 2003 and during both years, nearly 8,000 fans attended as the Buckeyes claimed Top 4 finishes in each event. The NWCA National Duals will be just one of many prominent events the Buckeyes will host as they are slated to host the 2015 Big Ten Championships.
