DURHAM, N.C. - Duke wrestling coach Clar Anderson has been selected to head a tour of NCAA All-America wrestlers to China this summer. The event, sponsored by the NWCA, will see Anderson lead about a dozen 2005 Division I All-Americans through China on a 10-day tour that will include both wrestling and stops at some of the world's most famous spots, such as the Great Wall, Tiananmen Square and the Imperial Palace in the Forbidden City.

The selection is a great honor for Anderson who, in his eighth year at Duke, continues to oversee a rise in prominence within the wrestling program. Anderson has had plenty of experience traveling as an aspect of wrestling, seeing much of Europe during his training career.
