The 2022 NCAA Wrestling Championship runs from Thursday, March 17, to Saturday, March 19, 2022. While the tournament will air on the combination of ESPNU, ESPN, and ESPN2, you don’t need cable to watch. Not only do you not need cable, but you can watch the whole tournament live as it airs and for free using a free trial to a streaming service that carries all three channels. I’ve linked those services and provided instructions on watching each below.
