BOK Center lands Big 12 Wrestling Championship deal

TULSA — Another big event will be held at the BOK Center for the next six years.

The Big 12 Conference and the Tulsa Sports Commission announced a partnership to host the event wrestling championship.

“Being able to build upon the foundation already established for the next six years clearly puts a stake in the ground for the Big 12 to grow this championship in Tulsa into the foreseeable future,” said Big 12 Associate Commissioner Bob Burda.

The 2018 Championship set an all-time tournament record with more than 18,000 tickets sold.

The 2019 Championship will be held March 9 and 10, while the 2020 Championship will be March 7 and 8.

"The execution of a well-run event makes this an amazing experience for the universities, student athletes, coaches and fans," said Vince Trinidad, executive director of the Tulsa Sports Commission.
