Maybe a one weight gap? Curious how Taylor/Ruth ('14) compares to Zain/Nolf's ('17) best year Edited July 10 by PortaJohn I Don't Agree With What I Posted

jchapman Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Jack Van Bebber and Conrad Caldwell were both undefeated for their career and 3X NC at consecutive weights at Okie State (A&M). Gonna be hard to beat that. 1 Craig Henning got screwed in the 2007 NCAA Finals.
Wrestleknownothing Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Duh. Starocci and Brooks 1 1 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge
OMW Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Early 80s Californian's: 1980 Cal State Bakersfield's (D2) D1 National Champs 118 Joe Gonzales and 126 John Azevedo 1982 University of Oklahoma's National Champs 167 Dave Schultz and 177 Mark Schultz of note, all 4 were Olympians, JA on the 80 boycott team and the other 3 1984 (Soviet boycott) both Schultz were the 2 seeds and defeated the 1 seeds in the finals, with Mark Schultz beating 1984 Olympic teammate and fellow Gold Medal winner Ed Banach 5 1

Gonna be hard to beat that. You can tie it at Oklahoma State with Rex Peery and Ross Flood (though Flood had 1 lose) The only downside with the early day wrestlers is the low match totals. Van Bebber had 22 total matches in three years, Caldwell had 18, Peery had 29 and Flood had 32. 1 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge

Wrasslin Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Obviously not as straight-forward as is seems. . .there's a lot of great back-to-back combos historically. Great thread! .
Wrestleknownothing Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Notable: Merle and Burl Jennings for MSU. Both are 2x champs. Wrestled 121 and 128. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge
