Brackets are available here. All matches will be streamed on ESPN+. Tonight's session is being televised on ESPN. Friday's morning session at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Mich., will start at 11 a.m. and will be televised on ESPNU.

Here's a look at where each Tiger stands:

125 • Patrick Glory • Jr.
Third-seeded Glory advanced to Friday's quarterfinals with a 10-2 win over (14) Jakob Camacho of North Carolina State and will face Oklahoma State's (11) Brandon Kaylor in Friday's first session.

Against Camacho, Glory had two takedowns in the first period on the way to a 4-1 lead, and after a scoreless second, Glory pulled away with an escape and a takedown in the first minute before punctuating the win with a takedown in the closing seconds, along with the riding-time point.

149 • Marshall Keller • Jr.
Keller, seeded 30th, kept his NCAA Championships stay going with an 11-0 win over Lock Haven's (33) Dashawn Farber in a wrestleback match, but then fell to Northwestern's (19) Yahya Thomas in a second-period fall in another consolation, seeing his NCAA Championships debut come to a close.

157 • Quincy Monday • Jr.
Fifth-seeded Monday followed up his first NCAA Championships win earlier in the day with a round-of-16 win over Wyoming's (12) Jacob Wright, 3-2. Monday will meet North Carolina State's (4) Ed Scott in the quarters in what will be a rematch of a bout earlier this season in Jadwin Gym, which Scott won 6-4.

Against Wright, Monday had a takedown less than 30 seconds into the match, and after Wright answered with an escape, the match stood 2-1 for Monday until the Tiger junior pushed the lead to 3-1 with an escape early in the second period. Wright pulled within a point with an escape early in the third, but Monday preserved the one-point margin for the final 93 seconds of the match.

184 • Travis Stefanik • Jr.
Stefanik, seeded 23rd, defeated Indiana's (26) Donnell Washington 6-1 in a wrestleback for the chance to compete again in Friday's first session. Another wrestleback is ahead in Friday's first session against eighth-seeded Marcus Coleman of Iowa State.

Against Washington, a reversal gave Stefanik a 2-0 lead midway through the second period, and a pair of third-period takedowns allowed Stefanik to pull away for the win.

197 • Luke Stout • Fr.
Wyoming's (2) Stephen Buchanan defeated 18th-seeded Stout in a round-of-16 match, 6-3. Stout will compete again in Friday's first session in a wrestleback against (16) Kordell Norfleet (Arizona State).

Buchanan got out in front with a takedown midway through the opening period and grew the lead to 4-0 with a reversal early in the second. Stout answered with an escape and had a takedown with 52 seconds left in the period to pull within 3-2, but Buchanan had an escape to go ahead 5-3 headed to the third. Buchanan added the riding-time point for the 6-3 final.

HWT • Matt Cover • So.
Oklahoma's (30) Josh Heindselman was a 6-1 winner over Cover, seeded 32nd, in a wrestleback match early in Thursday's evening session, ending Cover's NCAA Championships debut.
