  1. As a lifelong baseball fan (and sometimes player) you learn a lot about the “unwritten rules” of the game. Some are lame and illogical, others are okay. One that most people tend to embrace is “you don’t talk about a no-hitter.” As a pitcher gets into the fifth or sixth inning, everyone watching pretends as if they don’t realize he’s yet to give up a hit. Our mailbag specialist, Jagger, claims he has a gift for breaking up no-hitters simply by watching. If a team I don’t care for is in the midst of a no-hitter, I make sure he’s aware and turns the game on. In wrestling, we don’t really have this rule. There are plenty of wrestlers who are halfway home with perfect records of their own during the 2023-24 season. At least, one per weight. Rather than ignoring them and hoping they maintain that donut in the loss column; today we’re identifying the undefeated wrestlers, listing their remaining probable opponents, and labeling the likelihood of whether or not they maintain their perfect records heading into the postseason. The terms we’re using to describe their changes of remaining unbeaten are (in order): Highly likely Very good Likely So-So Fair Not good With each wrestler, we’ve also mentioned the biggest potential roadblocks during their remaining schedules. Using baseball lingo, as always, we tip our hat to WrestleStat for having records, past matchups, and future opponents so accessible for a feature like this. 125 lbs #14 Braeden Davis (Penn State): 9-0 January 19th: #5 Michael DeAugustino (Michigan) January 21st: Tristan Lujan (Michigan State) January 28th: Tommy Capul (Maryland) February 2nd: #24 Brendan McCrone (Ohio State) February 9th: #1 Drake Ayala (Iowa) February 12th: #13 Dean Peterson (Rutgers) February 18th: #7 Caleb Smith (Nebraska) February 25th: Caleb Edwards (Edinboro) We’ll get an idea of just how good Davis is this Friday as he takes on All-American Michael DeAugustino. Should he make it through that test, he’ll get pushed in February, as he has four consecutive matches with ranked competition, two of which are in the top ten. If we've learned anything from the first couple months of the season, it's don't make predictions at 125 lbs, they're bound to go wrong! Outlook: Fair 133 lbs #1 Ryan Crookham (Lehigh): 12-0 January 19th: #10 Michael Colaiocco (Penn) January 20th: #29 Brendan Ferretti (Navy) February 4th: #33 Braden Basile (Army West Point) February 9th: #17 Kurt Phipps (Bucknell) February 17th: Sean Pierson (Princeton) February 24th: #24 Julian Chlebove (Arizona State) The stiffest competition for Ryan Crookham will come on Friday against past EIWA champion Michael Colaiocco. After Colaiocco, there are plenty of ranked opponents and opportunities for him to stumble; however, he hasn’t shown that a slip-up is inevitable. Outlook: Very Good #3 Daton Fix (Oklahoma State): 5-0 January 21st: #26 Gabe Whisenhunt (Oregon State) January 26th: #23 Julian Farber (Northern Iowa) January 27th: #7 Evan Frost (Iowa State) February 2nd: #24 Julian Chlebove (Arizona State) February 4th: #31 Kade Moore (Missouri) February 10th: #16 Derrick Cardinal (South Dakota State) February 18th: Jace Koezler (Oklahoma) February 25th: #14 Brody Teske (Iowa) Seven of Daton Fix’s final eight opponents are nationally ranked; however, only one is higher than 14th. Fix has only lost once in his career prior to the NCAA tournament, so I’d guess that trend continues during the final stretch of his career: Outlook: Highly Likely #6 Dylan Ragusin (Michigan): 14-0 January 19th: #4 Aaron Nagao (Penn State) January 21st: #8 Dylan Shawver (Rutgers) January 26th: #12 Nic Bouzakis (Ohio State) February 2nd: #14 Brody Teske (Iowa) February 9th: #19 Jacob Van Dee (Nebraska) February 16th: Cayden Rooks (Indiana) February 25th: Vince Perez (Central Michigan) A mid-season shredding of the redshirt has thrust Dylan Ragusin into the Wolverine lineup - which has been a good thing. Ragusin has looked as good as ever, competing unattached and last week in the traditional Maize and Blue. The next three matches should tell the tale for Ragusin. Friday he’ll have an opponent that he’s never seen before; however, Aaron Nagao placed higher than him at the 2023 Big Ten Tournament and at NCAA’s. Outlook: So-So 141 lbs #1 Real Woods (Iowa): 11-0 January 19th: #32 Greyson Clark (Purdue) January 26th: #24 Danny Pucino (Illinois) January 28th: Joel Vandervere (Northwestern) February 2nd: #25 Sergio Lemley (Michigan) February 9th: #2 Beau Bartlett (Penn State) February 18th: Felix Lettini (Wisconsin) February 25th: #7 Tagen Jamison (Oklahoma State) Initially, you would make Real Woods the favorite over anyone he faces (obviously, as the top-ranked 141 lber). But, as the undisputed number one, you always get the best of every opponent. We’ve seen Woods getting pushed by freshman Vance Vombaur on Monday night and Anthony Echemendia early in the season. Despite holding, a significant rankings advantage over most of his competition, some of these matches could be closer than you’d expect. Of course, the big one is against second-ranked Beau Bartlett, whom Woods defeated 4-1 in last year’s dual. Outlook: Likely #2 Beau Bartlett (Penn State): 10-0 January 19th: #25 Sergio Lemley (Michigan) January 21st: #33 Jordan Hamdan (Michigan State) January 28th: #14 Kal Miller (Maryland) February 2nd: #3 Jesse Mendez (Ohio State) February 9th: #1 Real Woods (Iowa) February 12th: #11 Mitch Moore (Rutgers) February 18th: #8 Brock Hardy (Nebraska) February 25th: Jacob Brenneman (Edinboro) The February Big Ten duals should tell the tale for Beau Bartlett. A week before his highly anticipated rematch with Woods, he has a dual against CKLV champion and 2023 All-American Jesse Mendez. He also has a matchup with currently undefeated Mitch Moore, then 2023 Big Ten runner-up Brock Hardy to close the conference dual schedule. Last season, Hardy downed Bartlett in the Big Ten semifinals, 7-3 Outlook: Not good #11 Mitch Moore (Rutgers): 11-0 January 19th: #33 Jordan Hamdan (Michigan State) January 21st: #25 Sergio Lemley (Michigan) January 27th: #19 Vance Vombaur (Minnesota) February 4th: #3 Jesse Mendez (Ohio State) February 12th: #2 Beau Bartlett (Penn State) February 16th: #14 Kal Miller (Maryland) February 21st: Nik Antonelli (Bloomsburg) Before really getting to the gauntlet of his schedule, Mitch Moore has a pair of duals against solid freshmen Sergio Lemley and Vombaur to close January. Both are maybe ranked a bit lower than their abilities would indicate. They should be tough outs for Moore, before even thinking about Mendez and Bartlett. Outlook: Not good 149 lbs #1 Ridge Lovett (Nebraska): 15-0 January 19th: #13 Drew Roberts (Minnesota) January 21st: Marcos Polanco (Purdue) January 26th: Sam Cartella (Northwestern) January 28th: #22 Joe Zargo (Wisconsin) February 4th: #8 Kannon Webster (Illinois) February 9th: #6 Austin Gomez (Michigan) February 18th: #12 Tyler Kasak (Penn State) February 25th: #4 Kyle Parco (Arizona State) Ridge Lovett started the year at the top-ranked 149 lber and has done nothing to dispel the notion that he should be considered the favorite. February should tell the tale for Lovett as we wonder if he’ll head into the Big Ten Championships unbeaten. Stud true freshman Kannon Webster leads off the month. The biggest hurdle will be Austin Gomez on February 9th. Lovett was 0-2 against Gomez during the 2021-22 season, including a :20 fall in the Big Ten semifinals. Admittedly, Lovett has improved significantly and we’re still not sure of Gomez’s ceiling. The same can be said for impressive Penn State freshman Tyler Kasak. Outlook: So-So #6 Austin Gomez (Michigan): 3-0 January 19th: #12 Tyler Kasak (Penn State) January 21st: Michael Cetta (Rutgers) January 26th: #9 Dylan D’Emilio (Ohio State) February 2nd: #11 Caleb Rathjen (Iowa) February 9th: #1 Ridge Lovett (Nebraska) February 16th: #14 Graham Rooks (Indiana) February 25th: #16 Corbyn Munson (Central Michigan) The Michigan/Penn State dual on Friday will be a great one and one of the marquee matchups is Gomez against freshman Tyler Kasak. Since getting moved into the starting lineup, Kasak has passed every test presented to him. Gomez represents a different level. With the field at 149 lbs this year, you would typically give Gomez the edge against any of the wrestlers on his regular season slate; however, he battled various injuries for the last year-plus, so we’re still not sure exactly what version of Gomez will take the mat for Michigan. Outlook: So-So 157 lbs #1 Levi Haines (Penn State): 7-0 January 19th: #9 Will Lewan/Zack Mattin (Michigan) January 21st: #21 Chase Saldate (Michigan State) January 28th: #30 Michael North (Maryland) February 2nd: #33 Isaac Wilcox (Ohio State) February 9th: #2 Jared Franek (Iowa) February 12th: Andy Clark (Rutgers) February 18th: #3 Peyton Robb (Nebraska) February 25th: Steffan Lynch (Edinboro) Just by the way the schedule has broken so far this season, we haven’t seen Levi Haines against any of the top threats at 157 lbs. That should change soon. Will Lewan and Peyton Robb are opponents that pushed Haines to sudden victory in 2022-23. He did not face Franek. There’s also the chance that Haines has made a big jump in his second year and surpassed both. Outlook: Fair #4 Vince Zerban (Northern Colorado): 19-0 January 19th: #15 Cael Swensen (South Dakota State) January 21st: Landon Johnson (North Dakota State) January 26th: Cooper Voorhees (Wyoming) February 10th: Kyler Lake (Utah Valley) February 18th: Brooks Gable (Air Force) You may not have guessed that Vince Zerban is the only other unbeaten wrestler at 157 lbs, but Zerban has been excellent with titles at the Black Knight Invite, the Cougar Clash, and the Southern Scuffle. Zerban’s match Friday against Cael Swensen should indicate whether or not he’ll enter the Big 12 tournament undefeated. Last year, Swensen defeated Zerban 4-2 in dual meet action. Outlook: Fair 165 lbs #1 Keegan O’Toole (Missouri): 11-0 January 26th: #8 Peyton Hall (West Virginia) January 28th: #2 Julian Ramirez (Cornell) February 4th: #4 Izzak Olejnik (Oklahoma State) February 16th: Brendon Howes (North Dakota State) February 18th: Tanner Cook (South Dakota State) February 23rd: Evan Yant (Northern Iowa) February 25th: #3 David Carr (Iowa State) Despite being perhaps one of the top two or three wrestlers in the nation when it comes to pound-for-pound rankings, Keegan O’Toole is far from a shoo-in here. The main reason is the regular-season ending dual with Iowa State and 2021 national champion David Carr. Carr defeated O’Toole in two of their three 2022-23 matchups and is responsible for O’Toole’s only losses since the 2021 NCAA semifinals. The upcoming slate with three top-eight opponents is nothing to scoff at either. Outlook: Fair #9 Mitchell Mesenbrink (Penn State): 11-0 January 19th: #7 Cam Amine (Michigan) January 21st: #10 Caleb Fish (Michigan State) January 28th: Gaven Bell (Maryland) February 2nd: #22 Bryce Hepner (Ohio State) February 9th: #6 Michael Caliendo (Iowa) February 12th: Tony White (Rutgers) February 18th: #18 Antrell Taylor (Nebraska) February 25th: Max Kirby (Edinboro) The upcoming Michigan swing should help us learn just how good Mitchell Mesenbrink can be in 2024. So far, Mesenbrink has dominated the competition, even his best tests, to date. This weekend he’ll have top-ten opponents in Cam Amine and Caleb Fish. For the past three years, Amine has been one of the key threats at this weight and Fish upset him last weekend. The often-overlooked Michael Caliendo looms at this Iowa dual, as well. Outlook: Fair 174 lbs #1 Carter Starocci (Penn State): 6-0 January 19th: #4 Shane Griffith (Michigan) January 21st: DJ Shannon (Michigan State) January 28th: Dom Solis (Maryland) February 2nd: #30 Rocco Welsh (Ohio State) February 9th: #9 Patrick Kennedy/Gabe Arnold (Iowa) February 12th: #19 Jackson Turley (Rutgers) February 18th: #29 Bubba Wilson (Nebraska) February 25th: Joey Arnold (Edinboro) For my money, Carter Starocci has been the best collegiate wrestler during the 2023-24 season. He hasn’t suffered a loss since the 2021 Big Ten finals and has opened up his offense more this season, which is a scary proposition. Friday’s matchup with 2021 national champion Shane Griffith is juicy and either of Iowa’s 174’s make for some fun possibilities. Even so, it’s hard to imagine this version of Starocci suffering a loss before March (or even during March). Outlook: Highly Likely #2 Mekhi Lewis (Virginia Tech): 7-0 January 26th: Tyler Eischens (North Carolina) February 2nd: #12 Justin McCoy (Virginia) February 9th: Jack Wimmer (Duke) February 10th: Paul Pierce (George Mason) February 16th: #15 Luca Augustine (Pittsburgh) February 23rd: #32 Alex Faison (NC State) When healthy, Mekhi Lewis has been one of the few wrestlers who has been able to seriously push and threaten Carter Starocci over the past two seasons. Health has been a big question for Lewis during that time, as well. He’ll face some good competition during the next month and a half; however, it’s difficult to picture Lewis suffering a loss. Because of his stout defense, some of these matches may end up close on the scoreboard, though less so in actual competition. Outlook: Very Good 184 lbs #1 Parker Keckeisen (Northern Iowa): 16-0 January 26th: #2 Dustin Plott (Oklahoma State) January 27th: Giuseppe Hoose (Oklahoma) February 4th: #31 Dennis Robin (West Virginia) February 9th: Nathan Haas (California Baptist) February 11th: #9 Will Feldkamp (Iowa State) February 23rd: #11 Clayton Whiting (Missouri) February 25th: #16 Shane Liegel (Wisconsin) With Aaron Brooks moving up, 184 lbs was without a returning champion this year. Parker Keckeisen was considered the slight favorite; however, since the competition began he has seemingly separated himself from the rest of the pack. His next scheduled dual against Dustin Plott appears to be his toughest challenge. Plott has lost only once in 18 matches. He was third at the CKLV bracket that Keckeisen won, though the two did not meet. Not on the schedule is the Flash Flanigan Open this weekend which some UNI wrestlers may attend. It’s not certain if Keckeisen will, yet. Outlook: Very Good 197 lbs #1 Aaron Brooks (Penn State): 6-0 January 19th: #32 Bobby Striggow (Michigan) January 21st: #29 Kael Wisler (Michigan State) January 28th: #5 Jaxon Smith (Maryland) February 2nd: #22 Luke Geog (Ohio State) February 9th: #14 Zach Glazier (Iowa) February 12th: #9 John Poznanski (Rutgers) February 18th: #15 Silas Allred (Nebraska) February 25th: Jack Kilner (Edinboro) Three-time national champion Aaron Brooks has moved up to 197 lbs and hasn’t missed a beat. His Big Ten slate is littered with ranked, high-quality opponents, yet none that jump out as serious threats to Brooks. That being said, we’ll have him a notch lower than Starocci because he has dropped a match before nationals in each of the last two seasons. Outlook: Very Good #2 Stephen Buchanan (Oklahoma): 20-0 January 26th: #30 Julien Broderson (Iowa State) January 27th: #23 Wyatt Voelker (Northern Iowa) February 9th: #6 Tanner Sloan (South Dakota State) February 18th: #16 Luke Surber (Oklahoma State) Stephen Buchanan has one of the smallest remaining schedules amongst this group of undefeated wrestlers. Each and every one of his prospective opponents is nationally ranked, which presents a challenge for the Sooner. Perhaps, the most significant is 2023 NCAA runner-up, Tanner Sloan. The two have met twice in their careers and have split the matchups. One of those (Sloan’s win) came during the 2019-20 season, so I’m not sure how much that matters. Even so, it’s a very tough match. Outlook: So-So #3 Rocky Elam (Missouri): 8-0 January 26th: Austin Cooley (West Virginia) January 28th: #8 Jacob Cardenas (Cornell) February 4th: #16 Luke Surber (Oklahoma State) February 16th: Spencer Mooberry (North Dakota State) February 18th: #6 Tanner Sloan (South Dakota State) February 23rd: #23 Wyatt Voelker (Northern Iowa) February 25th: #30 Julien Broderson (Iowa State) Like Buchanan, Tanner Sloan represents the toughest test on the remaining slate for Rocky Elam. The pair have traded wins in each of the last two seasons, so he’s certainly a threat for the Mizzou All-American. Additionally, Elam has a matchup against Cornell All-American Jacob Cardenas in late-January. They have never met, though Cardenas looks much improved from last season. Outlook: So-So #4 Trent Hidlay (NC State): 16-0 January 26th: #13 Mac Stout (Pittsburgh) February 2nd: #18 Max Shaw (North Carolina) February 9th: Colden Dorfman (Virginia) February 16th: #8 Jacob Cardenas (Cornell) February 18th: Kwasi Bonsu (Duke) February 23rd: #26 Andy Smith (Virginia Tech) Moving up to 197 lbs has been great for Trent Hidlay. He’s taken advantage of the new takedown rules and amassed bonus points in nearly 88% of his matches. Of his regular decisions, only Maryland’s Jaxon Smith was able to keep within a takedown of Hidlay. Though Cardenas represents his most significant challenge, Hidlay did major him in Vegas. Outlook: Highly Likely #9 John Poznanski (Rutgers): 10-0 January 19th: #29 Kael Wisler (Michigan State) January 21st: #32 Bobby Striggow (Michigan) January 27th: #24 Garrett Joles (Minnesota) February 4th: #22 Luke Geog (Ohio State) February 12th: #1 Aaron Brooks (Penn State) February 16th: #5 Jaxon Smith (Maryland) February 21st: Kolby Flank (Bloomsburg) If John Poznanski can channel the form that made him an All-American as a true freshman in 2021, Rutgers should be in good shape at the 2024 national tournament. Poznanski’s next three weeks should present him with a handful of solid challengers, but no one unbeatable. He will have a difficult pair of duals to close out the Big Ten schedule with Brooks and Smith. Outlook: Not good #14 Zach Glazier (Iowa): 15-0 January 19th: Ben Vanadia (Purdue) January 26th: Isaiah Pettigrew (Illinois) January 28th: Evan Bates (Northwestern) February 2nd: #32 Bobby Striggow (Michigan) February 9th: #1 Aaron Brooks (Penn State) February 18th: Mike Tal-Shahar (Wisconsin) February 25th: #16 Luke Surber (Oklahoma State) Without a doubt, the most shocking wrestler on this list is Zach Glazier and he sort of lost in the infamous Soldier Salute final against AJ Ferrari, but technically didn’t. There is certainly a path for Glazier to remain unbeaten leading into the Hawkeyes mega-dual with Penn State. Of course, Aaron Brooks is a different challenge. Outlook: Not good 285 lbs #1 Greg Kerkvliet (Penn State): 6-0 January 19th: #4 Lucas Davison (Michigan) January 21st: Josh Terrill (Michigan State) January 28th: #23 Seth Nevills (Maryland) February 2nd: #17 Nick Feldman (Ohio State) February 9th: Bradley Hill/Ben Kueter (Iowa) February 12th: #7 Yaraslau Slavikouski (Rutgers) February 18th: Nash Hutmacher (Nebraska) February 25th: Nick Lodato (Edinboro) Greg Kerkvliet missed some time due to an injury but has returned for the Big Ten duals. His biggest challenge of the regular season looms on Friday with Lucas Davison. February also could be tough with stud-freshman Nick Feldman, potentially seeing U20 world champion Ben Kueter in Iowa, and the always-difficult Yaraslau Slavikouski from Rutgers. Outlook: Very Good #2 Wyatt Hendrickson (Air Force): 14-0 January 26th: #31 Luke Rasmussen (South Dakota State) January 28th: Devon Dawson (North Dakota State) February 3rd: Christopher Island (California Baptist) February 9th: Chase Trussell (Utah Valley) February 11th: Will Jarrell (American) February 18th: Xavier Doolin (Northern Colorado) It’s hard to picture 2023 NCAA third-place finisher Wyatt Hendrickson stumbling with his upcoming schedule. He’ll head into the Big 12 tournament without having faced currently unbeaten conference opponents Yonger Bastida and Zach Elam. Outlook: Highly Likely #3 Yonger Bastida (Iowa State): 15-0 January 26th: #14 Josh Heindselman (Oklahoma) January 27th: #9 Konner Doucet (Oklahoma State) February 2nd: Michael Wolfgram (West Virginia) February 11th: #16 Tyrell Gordon (Northern Iowa) February 25th: #6 Zach Elam (Missouri) Along with Hidlay, no other wrestler has benefited from a move up in weights like Yonger Bastida has, going from 197 to heavyweight. Bastida has been one of the most high-scoring big men in the country, routinely racking up double digits in points. The match to circle is the final one of the year against Zach Elam. We’ll see if the Tiger big man can’t slow Bastida down and/or score enough to keep up with him. Outlook: Very Good #6 Zach Elam (Missouri): 15-0 January 26th: Michael Wolfgram (West Virginia) January 28th: #19 Lewis Fernandes (Cornell) February 4th: #9 Konner Doucet (Oklahoma State) February 16th: Devon Dawson (North Dakota State) February 18th: #31 Luke Rasmussen (South Dakota State) February 23rd: #16 Tyrell Gordon (Northern Iowa) February 25th: #3 Yonger Bastida (Iowa State) Before fast-forwarding to the Bastida matchup, you have to consider opponents like Konner Doucet and Tyrell Gordon. Though Zach Elam has never lost to either, they both have taken him to extra time. One slip-up against either could ruin his perfect record. Plus, the mammoth matchup against Bastida. Outlook: So-So #7 Yaraslau Slavikouski (Rutgers): 12-0 January 19th: Josh Terrill (Michigan State) January 21st: #4 Lucas Davison (Michigan) January 27th: #28 Bennett Tabor (Minnesota) February 4th: #17 Nick Feldman (Ohio State) February 12th: #1 Greg Kerkvliet (Penn State) February 16th: #23 Seth Nevills (Maryland) February 21st: Shane Noonan (Bloomsburg) Yaraslau Slavikouski has solidified the back of the Rutgers lineup and gives Scott Goodale’s team a podium threat at a weight class where they generally have not had one. Slavikouski has yet to face a top-15 opponent while wrestling with the Block R, though that could change this weekend. On Sunday, he could face Davison during Rutgers’ Michigan road trip. If that’s not enough, he has bouts with Nick Feldman and top-ranked Greg Kerkvliet on the docket in February. Outlook: Not good
  2. The B1G Ten dual meet season is in full swing and things are heating up. Between new heavyweights making appearances, incredible atmospheres, and buzzer-beating takedowns, it’s already been an exciting time for fans. With that being said, let’s take a look at five moments from the past week that caught our eye. Turley and Blockhus Claim Big Upsets Later on in this article, you’ll hear about Iowa rolling to some dominating wins. But I want to draw some attention to the upset win at 157 when the Hawkeyes took on Minnesota. Michael Blockhus came back this season on a mission, and he’s had some missteps so far, but on Monday night he was ready to battle. Late in the bout as he trailed 4-2 to #2-ranked Jared Franek, the Bellator MMA fighter, collected the winning takedown and rideout to hand Franek his first loss of the season. On the East Coast, Rutgers All-American Jackson Turley brewed up his own upset du jour against undefeated Donnell Washington of Indiana, who came in ranked 9th at 174. But Turley went big as he defeated Washington by 15-0 technical. Turley threw a bag of tricks at Washington and everything hit. It was one of those moments we’ve seen from Turley where everything is clicking. If the same person shows up in March he will find himself on the podium once again. Penn State Flawlessly Flexes Even for a squad as deadly as Penn State, a team that epitomizes track 2 of Dj Khaled’s Victory album, flawlessness is rare. However, it was accomplished last weekend when the Nittany Lions shutout Indiana 46-0. But it wasn’t just the shutout that I’m talking about, PSU didn’t give up a takedown throughout the entire dual. This weekend they face off against a high-powered Michigan team in what will surely be a must-watch dual. Iowa continues to roll Admittedly, I didn’t know what to think of the Hawkeyes before the season began. I figured they’d be a strong team, but at the time there were pending suspensions, transfers in and out of the program, and speculations on who would step up in the lineup. Fast forward to now, and Iowa is 7-0 and has shown that they remain one of the toughest teams to beat in the country. Despite some fireworks from a few short weeks ago, from a competitive standpoint the team appears to have rallied and guys have stepped up. Patrick Kennedy has looked better in the lineup at 174, Zach Glazier has proven to be a real competitor at 197 after beating the returning B1G champ Silas Allred Friday night, and Drake Ayala appears to be a national championship threat at 125. Not to mention we got our first sighting of Ben Kueter at heavyweight Monday night against Minnesota. The Hawkeyes next dual is this Friday against Purdue at Carver Hawkeye Arena. Michigan with a strong weekend Michigan traveled to Maryland Friday before returning home to take on the Michigan State Spartans Sunday at the Crisler Center. These duals weren’t supposed to be huge challenges for the Wolverines, but in the B1G conference, anything can happen. To their credit, they took care of business in both duals. Against Maryland, Michigan only lost one match to #5-ranked Jason Smith at 197. They even got a win at 157 with Zack Mattin filling in for Will Lewan. Despite some travel issues, Michigan made it back in time to take on the Spartans in Ann Arbor. Caleb Fish got a win over #5 Cameron Amine in dramatic fashion, but that match was expected to be close, as it always is. Next up the Wolverines have their biggest test of the season as they welcome the Nittany Lions to Ann Arbor Friday night, followed by the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers Sunday. Maryland Bounces Back on Sunday Despite a tough dual against Michigan Friday night, the Terrapins bounced back against Northwestern on Sunday. After dropping the first match at 125, Maryland rattled off three straight technical falls at 133, 141, and 149, followed by an upset win for Michael North by fall over #13 Trevor Chumbley. That stretch led to 21 of their eventual 29 dual meet points. Their next two wins came in come-from-behind fashion by Dominic Solis at 174 and eventually a technical fall at 197 from Jaxon Smith. Six wins is typically enough to win a dual meet, but especially when five of those six are technical falls, or pins. Maryland wrestles Ohio State in Columbus next on Friday. It’ll be interesting to see how this dual ends up with Ohio State dealing with a slew of injuries to their starting lineup. They remain very tough though, so this should end up being a fun dual to watch. Bonus Points Check out this week’s conference crossover conversation. Holmes, Claunch, and Wendell discuss Nebraska vs Iowa, Andonian’s injury and some of Cornell’s studs looking gassed against Lehigh.
  3. Air Force (Overall: 2-4; Conference: 0-2): Dual Results (WYO) | Dual Results (CP) The Falcons hosted two duals but dropped both to Wyoming and Cal Poly. Giano Petrucelli, Sam Wolf, and Wyatt Hendrickson went 2-0 on the weekend, with Petrucelli and Hendrickson getting bonus points in each. Hendrickson scored two falls to get his season total up to 11; over the weekend he spent just 1:18 on the mat to get his wins. Next Up: Air Force competes against SDSU and NDSU on the road on January 26th and 28th. California Baptist (Overall: 3-6; Conference: 0-3): Dual Results California Baptist dropped a 20-12 dual against conference opponent Northern Colorado over the weekend, but got a big upset. Eli Griffin kicked off the dual with a 7-4 upset over Big 12 champ Stevo Poulin despite a third-period injury that slowed him down. Dayne Morton, Carter Schubert, and Nathan Haas also won decisions. After a slow start to the year, Griffin is back to looking like a contender in a chaotic weight class. Next Up: California Baptist heads north to compete against Big 12 foes NDSU and SDSU on January 20th and 21st respectively. Iowa State (Overall: 9-1; Conference: 2-0): Dual Results The Cyclones had a dual against Pitt canceled due to the snowstorm, but still got a conference win over the visiting Wolverines. They beat Utah Valley 44-3 including seven bonus wins and a forfeit at heavyweight. Zach Redding continues to man the 149 spot and scored a late takedown to beat Isaiah Delgado. Julien Broderson lost to one of two ranked Utah Valley wrestlers, dropping a 6-1 decision to Evan Bockman. Next Up: Iowa State duals Oklahoma on January 26th and Oklahoma State on January 27th. Missouri (Overall: 7-0; Conference: 3-0): Dual Results The Tigers briefly escaped the cold, heading west for a dual against a young but tough Stanford team. They dominated with a 39-0 win and six bonus point wins. Noah Surtin hit a big move late to major Nico Provo 12-3. Logan Gioffre got his biggest win of the year with an 8-1 decision over Jaden Abas. Gioffre is now 5-4 on the year with all of his losses coming to top eight wrestlers. Brock Mauller got back in the win column over Daniel Cardenas, winning the takedown battle 4-1. Peyton Mocco returned to the lineup with a 21-8 major over Ty Monteiro. This was the team's first shutout win over a Division I team since 2021. Next Up: Missouri had the UNI Open on January 20th, but the event is canceled. It sounds like they are looking to find competition, but if not, they dual West Virginia on January 26th.

Next Up: The Bison return to competition with duals against California Baptist and Northern Colorado on January 20th and 21st respectively. Northern Colorado (Overall: 8-2; Conference: 1-1): Dual Results (CP) | Dual Results (CBU) Northern Colorado went 1-1 in duals and got their first conference win of the season.

Next Up: The Bears stay on the road with duals against SDSU and NDSU on January 19th and 21st respectively. Northern Iowa (Overall: 3-4; Conference: 2-0): Dual Results Despite a blizzard, the Panthers found a way to dual Utah Valley and get their second conference win of the season. Initially, it looked like the dual was going to be canceled, as the Wolverines were stuck in Ames with the weather. Iowa State graciously allowed the teams to compete in their facility. They beat Utah Valley 32-6 winning eight matches and scoring bonus points in four of them. Julian Farber, Cael Happel, and Ryder Downey all scored major decisions, while Parker Keckeisen scored a tech. Adam Allard lost 5-0 to Isaiah Delgado and Wyatt Voelker was upset by Evan Bockman. Next Up: With the UNI Open being canceled, the team next has Oklahoma State and Oklahoma duals on January 26th and 27th. Oklahoma State (Overall: 7-0; Conference: 3-0): Dual Results (PITT) | Dual Results (WVU) The Cowboys continued their dominant run, taking out Pittsburgh 31-6 and West Virginia 29-9. Spratley had an impressive weekend, pinning Colton Camacho before majoring Jace Schafer. Daton Fix dominated Vince Santaniello 11-0 but gave up a surprising 3rd-period rideout. Tagen Jamison navigated a dangerous Cole Matthews with an 8-2 win and won a wild one against Jordan Titus. Sammy Alvarez got the start at 149lbs and went 1-1, majoring ranked Finn Solomon before dropping a close 4-2 match to true freshman standout Ty Watters. Brayden Thompson dropped a match to Luca Augustine, again going to rideouts but being unable to escape or score in overtime. Izzak Olejnik won a funky match over Holden Heller before dropping a 5-1 decision to Peyton Hall for his first defeat of the year. A penalty point for a headgear pull and a takedown for Hall was the match, but Olejnik was in deep a few times late. Luke Surber made a return to the lineup, dropping a 5-2 match to Mac Stout. Afterward, it sounded like Surber may have suffered a leg injury, and missed the WVU dual. Konner Doucet notched a top-ten win over Dayton Pitzer, scoring a reversal during a locked-hands call for the 3-0 win. Troy Spratley, Daton Fix, Tagen Jamison, Teague Travis, Dustin Plott, and Konner Doucet went 2-0 on the weekend. Next Up: Oklahoma State returns home for a dual with Oregon State on January 21st. Oklahoma (Overall: 5-3; Conference: 2-2): Virginia Dual Results There were a number of late schedule changes, but the Sooners ended up going 1-1 at the Virginia Duals. They beat Navy in an impressive 24-11 win before dropping to Wisconsin 22-16. Stephen Buchanan, Jared Hill, and Josh Heindselman went 2-0 on the day. Jace Koelzer scored an upset over Brendan Ferretti of Navy but was majored by Wisconsin’s Nicolar Rivera. Cael Carlson and Tate Picklo had a rough day going 0-2 to ranked opponents. Giuseppe Hoose got a ranked win, taking out David Key in overtime 7-4. Willie McDougald went 1-1, beating Navy but losing 2-1 to Joseph Zargo for the second time this season. Next Up: The Sooners have a week off before hosting Iowa State and Northern Iowa. South Dakota State (Overall: 6-2; Conference: 0-0): Virginia Dual Results The Jackrabbits also went to the Virginia Duals and went 2-0, blanking Kent State and handling Navy 30-13. The team averaged a tech against Kent State with five techs, three falls, a major, and a regular decision. Against Navy, they dropped matches at 141, 165, and 285. Clay Carlson dropped a 3-1 decision to Josh Koderhandt while Tanner Cook was majored by Andrew Cerniglia. The team got big wins at 174 and 184, as Cade DeVos blanked Danny Wask 5-0 and Bennett Berge beat David Key 9-6. Add in a fall, two major decisions, and two techs and the Jackrabbits looked dominant. Next Up: South Dakota State hosts Northern Colorado on January 19th and California Baptist on January 21st. Utah Valley (Overall: 1-2; Conference: 0-2): Dual Results (ISU) | Dual Results (UNI) The Wolverines braved the blizzard to compete in Iowa, dropping duals to Iowa State and Northern Iowa. Evan Bockman went a solid 2-0 against ranked opponents, beating Julien Broderson and Wyatt Voelker. Isaiah Delgado was the only other Wolverine to get a win, beating UNI’s Adam Allard. Haiden Drury appears to be the starter at 141 after starting the year at 133, while Delgado appears to have won the 149 spot over Ty Smith. Next Up: Utah Valley hosts Wyoming on January 20th. West Virginia (Overall: 8-2; Conference: 2-2): Dual Results West Virginia hosted OK State and dropped the dual 29-9. The team got wins from Peyton Hall, Ty Watters, and Austin Cooley. Hall took out red-hot Izzak Olejnik, with a late takedown in the second and showcased some crazy knee flexibility defensively in the third. Watters had a wild one with Sammy Alvarez, getting the 4-2 win in a match filled with back-and-forth scrambles. Jordan Titus was razor close with Tagen Jamison, showing some good and dangerous defense throughout the match. Alex Hornfeck got the start against Teague Travis, and wrestled close before dropping a 5-2 match. Next Up: West Virginia hosts Missouri in a big conference dual January 26th before traveling to take on Morgan State on January 28th. Wyoming (Overall: 4-5; Conference: 2-3): Dual Results Wyoming got their second conference win of the season with a dominant 30-14 dual win over Air Force. In a dual that had bonus points in eight matches, the Cowboys were on the winning side in five of them. The team started 5-0 in the dual with Jore Volk beating an always-tough Tucker Owens 11-6. True freshmen Cole Brooks and Joey Novak continue to impress with tech falls. Garrett Ricks has now started two of the last three duals, while Birdwell started in the Nebraska dual. Next Up: Wyoming hosts Air Force on January 12th for another Big 12 dual.

  5. Little Rock has become anything but a little program during the 2023-24 season. Although Little Rock’s program is still taking baby steps, the program has been setting records each week. “There is a big gratitude for all the guys for believing in what we are doing and they have bought in so many different ways,” coach Neil Erisman said. “We always believed we could be this type of team and it’s fun to see it come together.” Little Rock’s achievements have come in various ways, including nine dual wins and counting, being ranked top 25 for the first time, finishing top 10 at multiple tournaments, and more. The Trojans have been able to create these records while competing in its fifth season. “It starts with the quality and character of the kids we are recruiting,” Erisman said. “We get the right guys who love what we talk about, what we believe in, and jump wholeheartedly into it.” Even though Little Rock continues to rise, it was not always smooth sailing for the Trojans. First, Erisman and the squad had to celebrate the small victories. “It started with celebrating that we didn’t get tech falled in a match,” Erisman said. “Through that, it gave the guys a real sense of gratefulness.” In addition, Erisman and his staff had to make sure to keep confidence flowing high despite tough times. Lastly, Erisman stated the toughest thing about building Little Rock is having no mentors for the wrestlers. “In the end, the culture of your team is who they are when the coaches are not around,” Erisman said. “When you have a group of young kids coming in and buying into a dream, they don’t know it and haven’t been through it. Everything they were doing, they were learning for the first time.” Luckily, Joseph Bianchi, Tyler Brennan, and a couple of other Trojans have continued to build a culture since the first day on campus. “They didn’t quit, which goes a long way,” Erisman said. “I have some guys who stayed the course when it looked like it wasn’t possible and now they are showing these young guys. I can’t be grateful enough for the old guys who were mentally and physically strong enough to survive what we had gone through.” In addition, Little Rock’s underclassmen have provided a spark. “It’s not a greater feeling than a young guy helping change the culture towards a higher level of success,” Erisman said. “Nasir Bailey and Stephen Little have elevated the mentality and expectations. They bet on themselves and it gave some of the other guys confidence.” Bailey currently ranks 13th at 133 pounds with a 16-2 record. He is the first Little Rock freshman to win Pac-12 Wrestler of the Week, to be ranked and upset a ranked wrestler. Little ranks 11th with a record of 11-2. The redshirt freshman defeated a top 5 ranked wrestler and was the first Trojan to be ranked top 10. “You can get hyped up that Nasir and Stephen will be in a match they can win,” Erisman said. “Last year, we got our first-ranked wins. It shows things are possible.” As the postseason is arriving, Little Rock’s final goal is to finish in the top 25 in the country. In addition, they have the confidence to shock their rivals and win a Pac-12 title. Although Erisman is still looking to build Little Rock into the next powerhouse, he is grateful for the first five years at Little Rock. “I have enjoyed doing this journey with all these guys, especially seeing the older guys mature,” Erisman said. “I saw some pictures and videos and they were babies when they got here. I am grateful for them because we have been through a lot together.”

  8. Cal Poly goes 3-0 at home Cal Poly won three straight home duals over the weekend. The Mustangs defeated American 39-3, Northern Colorado 23-15, and Air Force 23-17. Three Mustangs went undefeated during the weekend, Chance and Daschle Lamer, and Zeth Romney. Chance earned bonus-point victories, winning 22-4, 22-7, and 17-9. Daschle picked up a first-period pin and two decisions. Romney dominated with a 24-second pin, a 17-1 tech fall and 4-1 in sudden victory. In addition, Legend Lamer capped off a 2-1 weekend with a tech fall, making it the first time the three Lamer brothers wrestled together and marked an 8-1 record. Lastly, Jarad Priest captured the clinching win against Air Force with a 6-3 decision at 197 pounds against Calvin Sund. CSU Bakersfield remains winless The Roadrunners had three duals over the weekend. However, Bakersfield lost to American 36-8, Campbell 39-3, and Central Michigan 40-3. Guillermo Escobedo won the only match against Campbell, defeating Brant Cracraft 4-2 at 165 pounds. Augustine Garcia had a ranked win against Central Michigan, defeating Alex Cramer 8-2 at 174 pounds. Escobedo defeated Ryan Zimmerman 10-1 and Devyn Flores-Che defeated Kaden Milheim, 10-2 in the American dual. Little Rock dominates in 4 duals Before the season began, Little Rock had nine total dual wins. After capping four dominating wins, the Trojans have nine wins this season. Little Rock defeated Davidson 45-3, Cleveland State 41-3, Lock Haven 40-11 and Presbyterian 50-6. Eight Trojans also went undefeated throughout the weekend. Jeremiah Reno, Joseph Bianchi, Tyler Brennan, Triston Wills, Stephen Little and Josiah Hill went 4-0. Nasir Bailey ended 3-0 while Reid Nelson won his only bout. Lastly, Little Rock had 33 matches end with bonus points, including forfeit wins. Stanford shut out by Tigers The Stanford Cardinal squad was shut out by the Missouri Tigers 39-0. Although Stanford struggled, a handful of wrestlers battled to the final whistle. Jason Miranda dropped a 9-6 match against Zeke Seltzer and Peter Ming lost 8-1 to sixth-ranked Zach Elam.
  9. We'll start right off with 125 lbs, as usual. The previous #1 Anthony Noto fell to Diego Sotelo in dual action last week, which spurred a change at the top spot. Generally, I like to have some sort of a flow with the rankings from week-to-week, letting them build off each previous week. With a weight like 125 and a situation like we had, that wasn't possible in determining the #1 ranked wrestler. It was more like starting from scratch. Measuring resumes (quality wins and losses), Drake Ayala stood out from the rest of the field. After last night's win over Patrick McKee, Ayala now has wins over #6 Jore Volk, #7 Caleb Smith, #18 McKee (x2), #25 Kysen Terukina, #27 Eli Griffin, along with previously ranked Max Gallagher and Nick Babin. His only loss this year wasn't a bad one, a one-point loss to #16 Brandon Kaylor. Matt Ramos has wins over #13 Dean Peterson, #17 Tanner Jordan, #21 Diego Sotelo, #26 Anthony Molton, #32 Dominic Mendez, #33 Ethan Berginc. Along with previously ranked Tristan Lujan and Nick Babin. His losses are to #7 Caleb Smith, #12 Nico Provo, and #22 Jakob Camacho plus the unofficial loss to high schooler Marcus Blaze. To either make things easier or more confusing, Ayala/Ramos are slated to meet Friday night. In the non-125 lb news of the week, three ranked Ohio State wrestlers have been removed. Paddy Gallagher (157), Carson Kharchla (174), and Gavin Hoffman (184). All are expected out for an extended period of time, perhaps for the season. Those losses have greatly impacted their team tournament ranking. For now, the dual ranking dropped by a spot. We'll see how that plays out. True freshmen Luke Stanich and Braeden Davis were added to the 125 lb rankings. They make a deep weight even deeper. Their addition is why some wrestlers who might be coming off a win or two, but still dropped a place or two this week. On that same note, Tyler Kasak has been added at 149 lbs. Since Patrick Kennedy has been back in action for Iowa at 174 lbs, he was inserted at that weight. True freshman Ben Kueter could be ranked after a good win against Minnesota; however, we'll wait a week or two to see how Tom Brands handles the situation. He obviously has a redshirt available. At 157 lbs, both the #2 and #3 wrestler suffered losses over the past few days. #2 Jared Franek defeated #3 Peyton Robb, but then fell to #10 Michael Blockhus. For now, we're holding static with both in those same slots. Each have very strong cases for their respective ranking. The only other option to assume the #2 spot would be Vince Zerban, who is undefeated; however, his best win came against Daniel Cardenas, who also lost within this ranking cycle.

  10. It was a rare edition of Monday Night Wrestling on the Big Ten Network as undefeated conference rivals Iowa and Minnesota squared off last night in Iowa’s Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Iowa took seven of ten individual matches and was never in danger of dropping their first dual of the year to the Gophers. In one of the marquee matches of the evening, Drake Ayala overcame an early deficit to down Patrick McKee for the second time this season. McKee had won the previous four meetings between the two. The dual was bookended by talented two-sport star Ben Kueter, who made his Hawkeye debut at 285 lbs. Kueter knocked off 29th ranked Bennett Tabor to end the dual and tally his first career win in an Iowa singlet. Kueter recently joined the team after spending the last few months on the football field for Kirk Ferentz’s team. The bright spot for Minnesota was an upset at 157 lbs as Iowa-native Michael Blockhus handed second-ranked Jared Franek his first loss of the season. Iowa will close out the week by hosting Purdue on Friday night, while Minnesota faces Nebraska back at home.

  11. The All-330 projections are back for January of 2024. The All-330 is a series of educated guesses on who will be the 330 wrestlers who make the trip to Kansas City, Missouri to compete at the 2024 NCAA Championships. So, how are these different than the national rankings, which go down to #33? There's a little bit of guesswork, projection, and opinion that goes into these, which is generally frowned upon with rankings. In some cases, we think a particular wrestler is poised for a big second half (or not-so-big). Another factor for these is conference allocations. Right now we can just speculate allocations for each conference and weight, but you can get an idea of how many each league will get based on rankings. For instance, in a Big Ten weight class with 10 of the top-22 wrestlers in the country (157), you can also assume that the conference probably steals an at-large berth as a lower-ranked wrestler probably only needs one win to lock up a national qualifying bid. Wrestlers are listed by conference, in alphabetical order, based on school name, so they are not conference rankings. The good news is that if someone is not listed or in the "just missed" category, they have almost half a season's worth of action to go, along with a conference tournament. There's still plenty of time left to change a narrative or impress the masses. 125 lbs This is a bit of a sneak preview for tomorrow’s updated NCAA rankings which will feature true freshmen Luke Stanich (Lehigh) and Braeden Davis (Penn State). It appears as if both will have the opportunity to compete for their respective teams in the postseason. You’ll notice four wrestlers from the Pac-12 in this weight. Unfortunately, the last year of Pac-12 wrestling might be its best in recent memory. Barring something unforeseen, it’s hard to argue with any of these four going to Kansas City. 133 lbs If 125 lbs has been the most unpredictable, 133 has been the most volatile. Filled with wrestlers that aren’t known commodities, there are lots of new faces. This is the only EIWA weight where we’ve projected eight wrestlers qualifying for nationals. It’s also deep in the Pac-12. More than any other weight this could see the most change between now and March, as there isn’t much separation between numbers 11 and 33. 141 lbs The super-powers shine here with 19 of the possible 33 qualifiers hailing from either the Big 12 or Big Ten. Very few of them are either projections or borderline hopefuls. The SoCon looks up-for-grabs here and we’re going with the true freshman from VMI, Jordon. Should he qualify, he’d be the first for VMI since 2020. 149 lbs This weight class was extremely deep for the MAC in 2023, with five automatic bids and six wrestlers competing at nationals. We’re a bit more conservative this time; however, there are a few MAC wrestlers in the “Just Missed” category and beyond that could shake things up. However, as things shake out in the EIWA, there will be plenty of new blood in the mix. None of the four we’ve projected to qualify have done so in the past. 157 lbs We mentioned the MAC in the previous weight class. This one could be the conference’s most plentiful, in terms of NCAA qualifiers. We have them with four, with another in the “Just Missed” category. This weight class is just absurd in the Big Ten. With 11 in the projected qualifiers and two more in the “Just Missed” group, the Big Ten tournament will be even crazier than normal. 165 lbs This weight has the chance to rival or surpass 133 lbs as the one with the most wrestlers from the EIWA. Seven, plus two others who just missed out on the top-33, is pretty impressive. Like last season, 165 is the most star-studded weight in the Big 12. Two national champions, plus two other All-Americans, all currently ranked in the top-ten is quite imposing. 174 lbs Some injuries have really hampered the top tier at this weight class; however, near the 33 cut-off was as strong as any weight this season. All six of the wrestlers in the “Just Missed” category have all qualified for at least one national tournament. And even at that point, there are still other quality wrestlers that could've been included. 184 lbs 184 lbs could be one of only three Big 12 weights where eight wrestlers qualify for nationals. Looking at our projections six of them are sitting pretty and virtual locks, barring something unforeseen. There’s also one wrestler in the “Just Missed” range, so the Big 12 is very deep here. 197 lbs Although we don’t have grades listed, this could be one of the younger 197 lb NCAA brackets in recent memory. Seven freshmen (two true) are a part of the 33 we’ve projected heading to Kansas City. 197 also has its stars and top-contenders distributed relatively even amongst multiple conferences, rather than just coming from the Big Ten. 285 lbs Speaking of the Big Ten, if these projections hold, it could be the smallest contingent from the B1G at any weight in 2024. Should Josiah Hill make the tournament, as projected, it could give Little Rock as many as five or six qualifiers, after only having one in their short history.
  12. Corum is in the back row and center with the gold singlet Blake Corum kind of runs like a wrestler. By that, I mean he leads with his face. When Michigan beat Penn State 24-15 in November, Corum ran for 145 yards and two touchdowns. He left the field with blood dripping down his cheeks because of a cut between his eyes. When Michigan beat Ohio State 30-24 two weeks later, Corum ran for 88 yards and two more touchdowns. He wasn’t stopped for a loss on any of his 22 carries that day, and 56 of his 88 yards — about 64% — came after contact. And when Michigan beat mighty Alabama, Corum recorded 118 total yards, 83 rushing and 35 receiving, and two touchdowns in a 27-20 overtime win. He converted a big fourth down on the scoring drive that forced OT, then scored on the second play of OT to lift Michigan into the national championship game. With the national championship on the line, Corum totaled 134 rushing yards on 21 carries and a pair of touchdowns. For his efforts, he was named the game’s Offensive MVP. Why, you might be asking, am I writing about Blake Corum, Michigan’s All-American running back, on a wrestling website? Is it because Corum, in a past life, was a standout wrestler? That’s part of it. He won a Virginia youth state title in middle school. As a sophomore at Saint Vincent Pallotti, he took fourth at the Maryland state tournament at 182 pounds. But then he transferred to St. Frances Academy in Baltimore and became a blue-chip running back recruit. Is it because I lost a bet to Kevin Claunch, the smart, witty, good-looking, award-winning podcaster who also contributes award-winning coverage to this award-winning website? I can neither confirm nor deny, but, hey, here we are. Is it because I felt like I needed to make that connection to continue writing about Blake Corum and Michigan and football and wrestling? Absolutely. Corum, much like our buddy Claunch (a Central Michigan diehard at heart, but we’re keeping things Maize and Blue here for the sake of the alleged bet), carries all the same traits and characteristics as our favorite wrestlers. He’s confident. He’s direct. He’s likable. He admits faults, relishes triumphs, and gives credit where and when it’s due. Corum measures up at 5-foot-8 and 213 pounds, putting him on the small side for running backs, but he makes up for it by playing big. Roughly half of his total rushing yards this season (approximately 600 out of 1,245) have come after contact. He didn’t lose a single fumble this year. He led the nation with 27 rushing touchdowns this season. In another life, he would’ve made a great 174- or 184-pounder. Imagine Corum, with his tree-trunk legs, wicked lower-body horsepower, insane grip strength, and his willingness to run through his opponents, tangling with the likes of, say, Mikey Labriola, or Dustin Plott, or Trent Hidlay, or Marcus Coleman. Are we assuming Corum would’ve been an All-American-caliber wrestler? Yes, we are, especially if he would’ve wrestled at Michigan. Sean Bormet, Michigan’s head coach and Claunch’s slightly-thicker doppelgänger, has done great things with 174- and 184-pounders (and, really, the entire program). Is that bold of us to say? Yes, it is. Too bold, perhaps, but we’re pretty confident in our assessment here. Even the MatScout would agree. Just watch the tape. Of all of Corum’s athletic traits — strength, horsepower, his grip, his ability to attack face-first — perhaps his best is the fact that he just fights, for himself, his teammates, and for the millions that rep the Block M across the country and around the world. Never was that more apparent than in the Rose Bowl and the national championship game that followed in Houston. Against the surging Crimson Tide, Corum played huge. He averaged 5.6 yards per touch, and about half of his total rushing yards (41) came after contact. He was responsible for three of Michigan’s nine explosive plays, two by rush and another by air. On the go-ahead touchdown in overtime, he spun through three would-be tacklers. Standing next to Corum afterward, he still carries himself like a wrestler, even if it’s been a while since he last hit the mat. He conducted his postgame interviews shirtless. In the middle, he took a three-minute phone call with his dad. He talked about not fearing Alabama, and how his team just needed to go do what they do to win. A week ago, Corum led Michigan over Washington for the national title in Houston. Michigan hadn’t won a football national title since 1997 — and even then, they technically tied with Nebraska that season. You’d have to go back to 1948 for the last outright Michigan football title. Point is, it’s been a while, and who knows if Michigan will ever get to this point again. But Blake Corum led with his face and plowed over any Washington defender in his way — running like a wrestler — leaving those who rock the Block M, across the country and around the world, proud of their team and superstar.

  15. No. 2 Iowa has maintained their spot in the dual rankings so far this year with victories over Cal Baptist, No. 16 Oregon State, No. 5 Iowa State, No. 20 Penn, and Columbia. This Friday, they will take on their toughest test of the season to date in their Big Ten opener against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are also undefeated in duals after sneaking out an 18-17 victory over Northern Iowa last weekend. The match between the Hawkeyes and the Cornhuskers could feature as many as 16 ranked wrestlers. The following is a match-by-match preview of the event. 125: No. 7 Caleb Smith (Nebraska) vs. No. 5 Drake Ayala (Iowa) If the dual starts at 125 pounds, it could begin with one of the key swing matches. Smith and Ayala wrestled previously at the 2022 Southern Scuffle. In that bout, Ayala scored the only two takedowns of the contest and walked away with a 5-2 score. So far this season, Smith has gone 14-2 with both of his losses coming against No. 6 Jore Volk (Wyoming). However, he has secured himself a spot in the top 10 of the wild 125-pound rankings due to a victory over No. 2 Matt Ramos (Purdue). Ayala has gone 13-1 so far this season with his only defeat coming against No. 15 Brandon Kaylor (Oregon State). At the recent Soldier Salute tournament, the Iowa wrestler won first place and picked up victories over Volk and his rival No. 18 Patrick McKee (Minnesota). Ayala and McKee have already wrestled five times in college. While the final score of their match from the 2022 Scuffle was somewhat close, the match was mostly one-sided. Smith was able to get his escapes, but he never really came close to finishing a takedown. Ayala should still have the advantage on the feet, and the three-point takedown will just make the job that much more difficult for Smith. Prediction: Ayala major decision over Smith (4-0 Iowa) 133: No. 30 Jacob Van Dee (Nebraska) vs. No. 7 Brody Teske (Iowa) The 133-pound match is also expected to be a rematch. Van Dee and Teske wrestled in the finals of the recent Soldier Salute. Van Dee started the scoring with a takedown less than 40 seconds into the bout. After fighting through multiple scrambles, Teske scored his own takedown to finish the first period up 4-3. Neither wrestler was able to ride or get to their offense in the final two periods, and Teske took the 5-4 victory. Outside of that loss to Teske, Van Dee is actually 3-0 against Iowa wrestlers as he bested Jace Rhodes, Jesse Ybarra, and Cullan Scheiver to make the finals of the Soldier Salute. Overall on the season, he holds an 11-5 record. Van Dee enters this dual after dropping a decision last weekend against No. 22 Julian Farber (Northern Iowa) last weekend. Last year, Teske moved up to 133 pounds and qualified for his third NCAA tournament. He has gone 8-1 to start this season with his only loss coming against No. 6 Evan Frost (Iowa State). After giving up the early takedown, he appeared to be in the driver’s seat against Van Dee. Teske struggled to finish clean, but he was able to finish with persistence. This might be a close match, but the Iowa wrestler should be able to pull it out once again. Prediction: Teske decision over Van Dee (7-0 Iowa) 141: No. 7 Brock Hardy (Nebraska) vs. No. 1 Real Woods (Iowa) Despite never meeting prior to last season, Hardy and Woods have developed quite the history. They met three times during the 2022-2023 season, and Woods won all three contests. However, that does not tell the entire story. Their first meeting came in a dual meet match in late January. Woods won the tight contest by a 6-4 score. The two rematched in the finals of the Big Ten tournament. Once again, Woods was able to hold on for a 2-1 victory. He needed every ounce of his outstanding defense as Hardy nearly finished a scramble in the final seconds of the bout. Their third bout came in the semifinals of the NCAA tournament. This time Woods was shot out of a cannon. He got to his offense in all positions and finished with an 11-1 major decision. Hardy appeared to suffer a rib injury during the contest and eventually forfeited the fifth-place match. After finishing sixth at the last NCAA tournament, many expected Hardy to take another step and contend for the 141-pound title this season. The path has been somewhat rocky so far this year. Hardy holds a 10-4 record with most of the blemishes coming from an extremely tough run at the Cliff Keen Invitational. At the event, he dropped matches to No. 8 Tagen Jamison (Oklahoma State), No. 6 Cael Happel (Northern Iowa), and No. 3 Jesse Mendez (Ohio State). This past weekend he got a chance to reverse the result against Happel, but he once again dropped a decision, this time in sudden victory. Woods has one last chance to make it to the top of the podium after finishing just short last season. He has started his final campaign with a 9-0 record that includes signature victories over No. 10 Anthony Echemendia (Iowa State) and No. 5 Lachlan McNeil (North Carolina). Prediction: Woods decision over Hardy (10-0 Iowa) 149: No. 1 Ridge Lovett (Nebraska) vs. No. 12 Caleb Rathjen (Iowa) Lovett has not lost a college wrestling match since falling against Yianni Diakomihalis in the finals of the 2022 NCAA finals. After redshirting last year and competing in only one open tournament, he has won all 14 of his matches to start this season. Along the way, he has scored wins over the likes of No. 5 Dylan D’Emilio (Ohio State) and No. 2 Caleb Henson (Virginia Tech). Iowa started the season with Oklahoma State transfer Victor Voinovich at 149 pounds. However, the Hawkeyes sent out Rathjen against Columbia, and he scored a decision victory over Richard Fedalen. He followed up that starting performance with a tournament title at the Soldier Salute that saw him defeat Voinovich and possible future teammate Anthony Ferrari. Regardless of who Iowa sends out to face Lovett, the mission will likely be to avoid giving up bonus points. That should be a tough task. Lovett has a strong bonus rate so far this season (64%), and he has scored bonus points against some of his toughest opposition to date. Prediction: Lovett major decision over Rathjen (10-4 Iowa) 157: No. 3 Peyton Robb (Nebraska) vs. No. 2 Jared Franek (Iowa) Some coaches like to start their wrestlers off with a light touch early in the season, but this was certainly not the case for these two competitors last year. In the first match of the 2022-2023 season for both wrestlers, Robb and Franek faced off. As one would expect, it was a close contest that Robb ultimately won via a 7-4 score. The two rematched in the consolation semifinals of the NCAA tournament, and this time Franek won a 3-1 decision in sudden victory. Robb started this season on quite a run. He won his first 14 matches and picked up key victories over No. 5 Jacori Teemer (Arizona State) and No. 9 Will Lewan (Michigan). However, last weekend he dropped his first bout of the season as he was upset by No. 12 Ryder Downey (Northern Iowa) in a 6-5 match. In the offseason, Franek relocated to Iowa City, but he is still likely to find himself in another match against Robb. He has gone 14-0 for the Hawkeyes with his biggest win coming over No. 15 Cody Chittum (Iowa State) in a match that was about as close as it gets. Franek held on to the lead as Chittum nearly scored in the very last second of the contest. Franek showed at the NCAA tournament that he can slow this match down and win a close one. If Robb is able to get to his offense and turn this into a higher-scoring contest, it will favor him. However, that will likely be easier said than done. Prediction: Franek decision over Robb (13-4 Iowa) 165: No. 19 Antrell Taylor (Nebraska) vs. No. 7 Michael Caliendo (Iowa) Taylor went only 4-5 last season as a redshirt, but he has had a solid first year in the lineup for the Cornhuskers. His season record currently stands at 11-2, and he has worked his way into the rankings thanks to victories over No. 12 Garrett Thompson (Ohio), No. 18 Giano Petrucelli (Air Force) and Tanner Cook (South Dakota State). Caliendo was a somewhat surprising All-American for North Dakota State last season and then transferred to Iowa. So far this season, he has gone 13-1 with his only defeat coming against No. 4 David Carr (Iowa State). In his last action, he won the Soldier Salute tournament and scored a win over No. 30 Blaine Brenner (Minnesota). Taylor has been a good story for Nebraska so far this season, but he will be in a tough spot here against Caliendo. The Iowa wrestler seems to still be unheralded, and he has a chance to earn some respect in the upcoming Big Ten conference schedule. Prediction: Caliendo decision over Taylor (16-4 Iowa) 174: No. 30 Bubba Wilson (Nebraska) vs. Patrick Kennedy (Iowa) These two faced off when Nebraska and Iowa met in a dual last January. The bout took place down at 165 pounds, and it was not much of a contest. Kennedy was in control throughout the bout and won a 12-4 major decision. Wilson moved up to 174 pounds for this season and has 10-4 to start the season. The two-time NCAA qualifier suffered a loss against Tyler Eischens (North Carolina) at the Soldier Salute, but bounced back with back-to-back wins over Kevin Anderson (Wyoming) and No. 31 Jared Simma (Northern Iowa) last weekend. Despite starting Iowa’s last three duals at 174 pounds, Kennedy surprisingly entered the Soldier Salute at 165 pounds. He won three matches in the event but suffered his second loss of the season against teammate Caliendo. Kennedy made his season debut against Iowa State and picked up a key win over the Cyclones’ No. 22 MJ Gaitan. The weight situation for Kennedy is a bit confusing, and his gas tank has been an issue at times this season. However, considering their match last season, Wilson would appear to need to make huge strides to win the rematch. While he has looked improved at times this year, the gap might still be too wide. Prediction: Kennedy decision over Wilson (19-4 Iowa) 184: No. 4 Lenny Pinto (Nebraska) vs. Aiden Riggins (Iowa) Pinto was an NCAA qualifier as a freshman last year, and he has returned to the starting spot at 184 pounds for his second campaign. His season has started with an 11-2 run that includes a first-place finish at the Navy Classic. Pinto’s only two losses on the year came against No. 2 Dustin Plott (Oklahoma State) and No. 1 Parker Keckeisen (Northern Iowa) at the Cliff Keen Invitational. Last weekend, the Nebraska wrestler picked up an impressive 8-2 victory over No. 14 Bennett Berge (South Dakota State). Riggins has gotten the nod in three of Iowa’s five duals to start this season. Against Oregon State, the Hawkeyes went with Brennan Swafford, and currently redshirting freshman Gabe Arnold won a key match in the dual against rival Iowa State. However, Riggins returned to the spot for matches against Penn and Columbia. On the season, Riggins has gone 8-6 with three of his wins coming against non-Division I opposition. Prediction: Pinto major decision over Riggins (19-8 Iowa) 197: No. 11 Silas Allred (Nebraska) vs. No. 16 Zach Glazier (Iowa) Allred appeared to be peaking at the right time last season. He won the Big Ten tournament and defeated returning champion Max Dean. However, he surprisingly went 2-2 at the NCAA tournament and failed to reach All-American status. He has returned this season and so far gone 13-3. Last weekend, Allred picked up a pair of falls over No. 21 Joey Novak (Wyoming) and No. 19 Wyatt Voelker (Northern Iowa). Iowa fans might not have expected much from Glazier at the start of this season, but he has been a bright spot at 197 pounds. He maintained his undefeated record at the Soldier Salute after seemingly losing in sudden victory against former champion AJ Ferrari. He has also picked up victories over No. 24 Garrett Joles (Minnesota), No. 27 Julien Broderson (Iowa State), No. 28 Jack Wehmeyer (Columbia) and No. 30 Justin Rademacher (Oregon State). This should be an opportunity for Nebraska to pick up bonus points. Allred is dangerous in a scramble and can often find himself with an opponent on their back. Glazier has been a revelation for the Hawkeyes so far this year, so he will likely be able to keep it close. However, Allred might just have too much offense. Prediction: Allred major decision over Glazier (19-12 Iowa) 285: Nash Hutmacher (Nebraska) vs. Bradley Hill (Iowa) Hutmacher just finished his junior season of football for the Cornhuskers. He started 12 games on the defensive line and was named honorable mention All-Big Ten. Hutmacher made his collegiate wrestling debut last weekend and scored a first-period fall over Mason Ding (Wyoming). On the high school level, Hutmacher was a four-time South Dakota state champion and was a Fargo champion. Hill’s season got off to a bit of a rough start as he lost a match against Division III All-American Tyler Kim (Augsburg) at the Luther College Open. However, in the end, that match might say more about Kim than anything. For the year, Hill has gone 8-3 and won three of his five dual meet matches. If Hutmacher focused exclusively on wrestling since leaving high school, the odds would certainly be on him winning this match by fall. However, football has been his main focus for the past several years. With that being said, he looked about as dominant as possible last weekend. During his collegiate career, Hill has only been pinned once, and the fall was accomplished by teammate Gage Marty in an open tournament. Nebraska really would like to score bonus points in this match, and in the end, Hutmacher’s physical gifts might just be enough to get it done. Prediction: Hutmacher fall over Hill Dual Prediction: Iowa 19, Nebraska 18

  17. This is the last big weekend of out-of-conference duals in the ACC before the start of Friday Night Duals. Four of the six teams will be in action this weekend - Duke wrestled on Monday - and only two teams will be in action next week. Pitt will split action with a home dual against Oklahoma State on Friday and they will for a Sunday afternoon matchup with Iowa State. UVA will have duals on Friday and Saturday at the Virginia Duals. The Hokies host their final non-conference opponent with App State coming to Cassell Coliseum for a Friday night dual. The Tar Heels will host Penn on Friday and Harvard and Brown on Saturday. Several wrestlers will have a great opportunity for a ranked win to take momentum into the conference duals. Let’s take a look at some of the ranked matchups we will see this weekend. Pittsburgh: The Panthers have one of the tougher non-conference schedules in the country and this weekend will highlight that with two top-10 opponents. #7 Oklahoma State comes to Fitzgerald Field House on Friday night, coming off an upset win over North Carolina State last Friday. They finish up with a visit to #5 Iowa State. Every Pitt wrestler will have two ranked opponents this weekend and will be in position to make some big noise nationally. What I’m watching: The lower weights for the Panthers will play a huge role in the success of the team this weekend. Camacho and Santaniello have both wrestled well as of late and will face very tough opponents, with Vinnie facing two top-10 ranked wrestlers in Fix and Frost. I’m hopeful that this is an opportunity for Cole Matthews to get back on track after struggling the last few outings; he has the ability to beat both Jamison and Echemendia and I would love to see this be a bounce-back opportunity for Cole before conference duals. Sataniello, Matthews, Holden Heller, and Reece Heller all have two top-10 matchups on the weekend. I’m also very interested to see how Dayton Pitzer stacks up against two talented opponents. North Carolina: The Tar Heels host a trio of Ivy League squads this weekend. They will face Penn on Friday night and both Harvard and Brown on Saturday afternoon. Spencer Moore has a great opportunity this weekend with two ranked matches, including against Sotelo, who just upset #1 Anthony Noto. I also really like the spot that Tyler Eischens is in this weekend. He is unranked, coming in as a second-semester transfer but will face two top-15 opponents and has a chance to make a big impression. 125: #25 Spencer Moore v #33 Max Gallagher (Penn) and #24 Diego Sotelo (Harvard) 133: Jace Palmer v #10 Michael Colaiocco (Penn) 141: #5 Lachlan McNeil v #12 CJ Composto (Penn) 157: Jared Keslar v #25 Lucas Revano (Penn) 165: Isaias Estrada v #31 Josh Kim (Harvard) 174: Tyler Eischens v #12 Phil Conigliaro (Penn) and #11 Nico Incontrera (Harvard) 184: #24 Gavin Kane v #17 Maximus Hale (Penn) 197: #18 Max Shaw v #25 Cole Urbas (Penn) Virginia: The Hoos have had an incredible run of bad luck between injuries and illness and are down multiple starters across the lineup. Coach Garland and company are leaning on a lot of young wrestlers and may look to some true freshmen this weekend at Virginia Duals where they face Kent State on Friday and Wisconsin on Saturday. I’m looking for this team to step up in a difficult situation and try to end non-conference duals on a positive note before getting some needed rest and recovery time before ACC duals. We will only see one ranked versus ranked matchup for the Hoos this weekend; team captain and leader #13 Justin McCoy will face #18 Max Maylor in the Saturday dual against Wisconsin. 125: Kyle Montaperto v #4 Eric Barnett (UW) 149: Luca Errico v #22 Joseph Zargo (UW) 165: Michael Murphy or Mason Stefanelli v #6 Dean Hamiti (UW) 174: #13 Justin McCoy v #18 Max Maylor (UW) 184: Griffin Gammel or Dylan Newsome v #16 Shane Liegel (UW) Virginia Tech: The Hokies are also adjusting their lineup due to injuries, trying to ensure they are at full strength to face UNC in their opening ACC dual. The Hokies will feature different starters at four weights this week. Cooper Flynn is coming off two huge wins last week and continues to impress since making his second-semester debut. The only ranked-versus-ranked matchup we will see on Friday is at 149, where #2 Caleb Henson will face a scrappy #27 Cody Bond. Clayton Ulrey will fill in at 157 after the injury to Bryce Andonian. Thankfully, as bad as it looked in the moment, the injury isn’t season-ending and they hope to have BA back before the ACC Tournament. Logan Frazier will be filling in at 133 to allow Sam Latona extra recovery time after his early season injury; TJ Stewart will make his dual debut at 184 against Tomas Brooker. 125: #8 Cooper Flynn v Chad Bellis 133: Logan Frazier v #34 Ethan Oakley 141: #18 Tom Crook v Riley Edwards 149: #2 Caleb Henson v #27 Cody Bond 157: Clayton Ulrey v #23 Tommy Askey 165: Ty Finn v #32 Will Miller 174: #2 Mekhi Lewis v Luke Uliano 184: TJ Stewart v Tomas Brooker 197: #26 Andy Smith v Carson Floyd 285: #20 Hunter Catka v Jacob Sartorio
