MINNEAPOLIS – Purdue Wrestling will compete in its final regular season road dual at No. 7 Minnesota on Sunday afternoon.
The matinee dual against the Golden Gophers is slated for 1 p.m. ET inside Maturi Pavilion.

The Boilermakers (9-4, 2-3 B1G) trail Minnesota (9-1, 5-1 B1G) 43-10-2 in the all-time series, and the Gophers have won the previous two meetings.
Purdue last beat Minnesota 18-16 in West Lafayette on Feb. 6, 2022. On Senior Day, the Old Gold & Black won six of 10 matches to knock off the No. 16 Gophers in Holloway Gymnasium.
An upset Sunday would mark the Boilers' first win in Minneapolis since Feb. 1, 2004, when Purdue's most recent Big Ten champion Ryan Lange led the team over the No. 11 Gophers in their home arena. RANKED MATCHUPS PREVIEW Fifteen ranked wrestlers will be in the building for the dual, with as many as five ranked matchups possibly on the docket.
