    EVANSTON, Ill. -- Wrestling fans will be able to watch the finals of the 49th Annual Ken Kraft Midlands Championships, hosted by Northwestern, on the Big Ten Network. The network announced that it will air the Dec. 30 finals on a same-day delay at 9 p.m. CT. The 49th edition of the prestigious wrestling tournament at Welsh-Ryan Arena begins Thursday, Dec. 29 and continues Friday, Dec. 30. This is the fifth year in a row the Big Ten Network has aired coverage of Midlands.
