It’s deja vu all over again! The last month and a half of the college wrestling season has been filled with major injuries to star wrestlers. It seemed like every couple of days we learned about another wrestler being lost for the season. Last week alone, we learned that Taye Ghadiali and Yonger Bastida were injured and unable to compete for the rest of the year. Below are the All-Americans who have been injured and will miss the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign. Jore Volk (Wyoming) Aaron Nagao (Penn State) Dylan Ragusin (Michigan) Casey Swiderski (Iowa State) Ty Watters (West Virginia) Rocky Elam (Missouri) Yonger Bastida (Iowa State) Taye Ghadiali (Campbell) Along with Jore Volk missing most of the season, we have three other prominent 125 lbers who have had their seasons cut short. Missouri’s Noah Surtin was a senior who had to retire early due to a recurring injury. Earlier this week, we heard that Cornell’s Brett Ungar will be moving back down to 125 because of an injury to unbeaten Greg Diakomihalis. Additionally, 2023 Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational champion Nico Provo has yet to wrestle in 2024-25. Provo was listed on Stanford’s potential lineup last week, but did not wrestle. He does have a redshirt available so the Cardinal staff could choose to use one in this instance and focus on getting him healthy for 2025-26. With all the talk of 125 being an unpredictable weight class, if you were to add healthy wrestlers like Surtin/Provo/Diakomihalis to the mix, you might get some more stability. Or more potential for upsets! In addition to season-ending injuries, we’ve also seen some of the biggest stars in the sport sidelined for a significant chunk of the season. In fact, four preseason #1 ranked wrestlers. 125 lb NCAA champion Richie Figueroa had to injury default out of a mid-November match at the Daktronics Open. He returned almost two full months later. Lehigh’s Ryan Crookham could join the list of wrestlers out for the year. He is reportedly dealing with an elbow injury. Initially, word out of Bethlehem was that he was out for the season. Since then, InterMat has been able to confirm those reports were premature. While Crookham could miss the postseason, it hasn’t been finalized yet. Crookham is the top-ranked 133 lber in the nation and was third as a freshman in 2024. The preseason #1 at 157 lbs, Jacori Teemer, was seriously injured in only his third match in an Iowa Hawkeyes singlet. Teemer appeared to suffer a hamstring injury during November’s Cy-Hawk Dual. He finally made his return over the weekend (and looked pretty good) against Sammy Sasso in Iowa’s win over Ohio State. Finally, two-time NCAA champion Keegan O’Toole won one of the most anticipated matches of the season, when he solidified his top-billing at 174 lbs with a win over fellow national champion Levi Haines (Penn State). Shortly after the Collegiate Duals, Missouri head coach Brian Smith advised the media that O’Toole was dealing with an injury and would likely miss the entire month of January. In that same statement, Smith also announced that four-time All-American Rocky Elam would be out for the year. Elam did not compete at all this season. In addition to the wrestlers already mentioned, All-Americans Anthony Echemendia and Trey Munoz haven’t competed since the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational in early December. So why all the injuries? Is it more than in past seasons? First and foremost, the simplest answer is that college wrestling - particularly at the DI level - is extremely difficult and unforgiving. With a season that goes from November through March, it’s grueling. Add to that “offseason” training that includes competing at the US Open in April and U20/U23’s in late May/early June, it’s rough. In other sports, you can train to keep in shape without actually competing. Wrestling you just have to wrestle. Of course, you can raise or lower the intensity during a practice session (sparring, drilling, play wrestling), but it's a difficult lifestyle. Especially, when you may be losing weight to cut down to a weight class that isn’t close to your ideal weight. I do believe that the amount of wrestling that kids do before college plays into this scenario. With the proliferation of “national” tournaments, nearly every weekend from the day the state tournament ends until next year kicks off, kids might wrestle around 40 matches during the high school season and double (or triple) that during the “offseason.” So many matches against good competition wears on the body. I’ve had college coaches tell me that sometimes they’re getting damaged goods as incoming freshmen. It’s hard to hide a major surgery, but kids might come into college nursing ailments that only get worse in such highly competitive rooms. Another factor is the way wrestlers compete today. 20 years ago there were only a few wrestlers that were funky and put themselves through crazy scrambles to avoid giving up points. Now, you’re the odd one out if you’re not a good scrambler at the DI level. Everyone put themselves in awkward positions to fight tooth and nail to potentially avoid surrendering a three-point takedown. Of course, there’s no real data to back this up, but it seems logical to assume that these positions give way to more serious injuries (knees, shoulders, elbows). Also, you can’t ignore the times we live in. More information about concussions and potential head injuries has led coaches and trainers to take better care of their athletes. In the past, a concussion was just “getting your bell rung.” Maybe you’d need a few seconds to shake it off and keep wrestling. For the most part, they weren’t seen as a long-term injury. Again, there’s no data on such injuries from the 90’s and early 2000’s, but the sentiment at the time was that you’d probably be fine for the next match. Today, it seems rare that a wrestler goes through concussion protocol and continues competing the same day. Now, they can put you on the shelf for a month or perhaps the entire year - or even a career with a severe one or reoccurring head injuries. One factor that I think gets overlooked is the widespread use of NCAA waivers or “medical redshirts.” In the past, they were extremely difficult to come by and you weren’t guaranteed to get one. It was typically given out if someone missed multiple years due to injury and that wasn’t even set in stone. Basically, it was a hail mary after a season-ending injury. In today’s NCAA, they are much more common. I’d imagine in some cases, a star wrestler gets injured in the early season and misses some time. With the knowledge that they’ll get an extra year, coaches and wrestlers are taking that route rather than trying to rush and get ready for March - probably at significantly less than 100%. Again, it’s probably doing right by the athlete, but it has contributed to more season-ending injuries. As fans, myself included, it’s easy to look at potentially good matchups that don’t happen and roll your eyes about a team or a wrestler “ducking.” I know that does happen. At the same time, as we approach the end of January, everyone is probably dealing with some sort of ailment (or two or three). As you watch these athletes compete and think about what they put themselves through to get on the mat, you’re almost surprised that there aren’t more injuries. No matter who you root for, I’m hoping that your team finished out the regular season in the best possible situation - health-wise. The postseason, particularly the NCAA Tournament, is at its best when its biggest stars are available and semi-healthy.

We have a full slate of ACC action this weekend after a smaller conference schedule last week. ACC Friday Night Duals on ESPN also kicks off this week with Duke hosting Virginia Tech. We will also see Pittsburgh traveling to North Carolina State on Friday. In Sunday action, Virginia is making the cross-country trip to face Stanford. North Carolina will be off this weekend. #9 Virginia Tech at Duke 125: #5 Eddie Ventresca v Ethan Grimminger OR Riley Rowan 133: #18 Connor McGonagle v Raymond Adams 141: #10 Sam Latona v Noah Kochman OR Christian Colman 149: #1 Caleb Henson OR Chris Bacchioni v Sean O'Donnell OR Peter Chacon 157: #10 Rafael Hipolito, Jr. OR Luke Robie v Logan Ferrero 165: #23 Mac Church v #29 Aidan Wallace OR Nick Tattini 174: #24 Lennox Wolak v Gaetano Console 184: #28 TJ Stewart v David Hussey 197: Sam Fisher v Kwasi Bonsu 285: #14 Jimmy Mullen v #29 Connor Barket There are a couple matches I have my eye on here, mostly to see how they bounce back from a loss. The biggest head-to-head match is at 285 where we will see a ranked versus ranked matchup of the dual in #14 Jimmy Mullen against #29 Connor Barket. I think 165 will be one to watch; Wallace had a great run at the Scuffle and showed flashes of his potential, while Church is coming off an overtime loss to #8 Will Miller in a 30-minute, review-plagued match. We have seen Wolak on a slide as of late, he will be looking to right the ship as they continue in ACC competition. Both squads have multiple options listed, so we may see some different starters than usual; I wouldn’t expect to see Henson back until next week, though he is listed as a possibility. #15 Pittsburgh at #8 NC State 125: #25 Nick Babin v #3 Vince Robinson or Louie Gill 133: Tyler Chappell v #12 Kai Orine or Troy Hohman 141: Anthony Santaniello or Briar Priest v Tyler Tracy 149: #21 Finn Solomon or Kade Brown v #29 Koy Buesgens 157: #25 Dylan Evans v #14 Ed Scott 165: Jared Keslar v #28 Derek Fields or Luke Ahrberg 174: #20 Luca Augustine v #18 Matty Singleton 184: #15 Reece Heller v #11 Dylan Fishback 197: #11 Mac Stout v #26 Christian Knop or Andrew Macchiavello 285: #13 Dayton Pitzer v #4 Isaac Trumble This has the makings of a solid dual, especially at the upperweights. The Panthers have relied on their final four weights for comeback wins in their last two duals and all of them will face a tough test tonight. As we saw in their matchup against Stanford, there are a couple wrestlers out and that could make a huge difference in the team score. I think the atmosphere in Reynolds could play a big role in the dual tonight, it’s a tough place to build momentum as a visiting team and the Panthers will need some momentum to make a run through this lineup. There are a few big matches to keep an eye on - 149 is a sneaky good match that could be a pivotal win for either team. The run through the upper weights will be excellent. Singleton and Augustine have both put together solid seasons so far and this is very much a toss-up, as is the next match at 184 with Reece Heller and Dylan Fishback. 197 leans to the Panthers and 285 leans to the Pack, but could very possibly be a preview of the ACC title match at heavyweight. I expect a fun dual tonight in Raleigh. #16 Stanford vs. Virginia 125: -- v #31 Keyveon Roller 133: #6 Tyler Knox v #27 Gable Porter OR Kyle Montaperto 141: #21 Jason Miranda v #20 Dylan Cedeno OR Kyren Butler OR Luke Roberts 149: #7 Jaden Abas v #30 Jack Gioffre 157: #29 Grigor Cholakyan v Michael Gioffre OR Nick Sanko 165: #16 Hunter Garvin v #19 Nick Hamilton OR Mason Stefanelli 174: #4 Lorenzo Norman v Michael Murphy 184: Tye Monteiro v. Griffin Gammell OR Justin Phillips 197: #24 Nick Stemmet v Steven Burrell Jr OR Ethan Weatherspoon 285: #33 Peter Ming v Gabe Christenson The Hoos will make the first trip west to Palo Alto to be the first ACC opponent on The Farm in wrestling. Unfortunately, after talking to Coach Garland today, we aren’t going to see UVA at full strength. Several starters will not be making the trip due to an illness making its way through the team - two of the three typical UVA starters from California will not be making the trip. The good news is that we will likely see two big matchups that will have major ACC implications. Both Jaden Abas and Hunter Garvin were out last week against Arizona State, but they should both be available on Sunday; Nick Hamilton has been out for the Hoos recovering from an injury but should also be making his return. This means we will have a solid All-California matchup at 149. Jaden Abas will square off with Jack Gioffre--these two have not met in college, but Jack’s twin brother Michael knocked off Abas at the Southern Scuffle in 2023. 165 will pit the reigning ACC champion Nick Hamilton against the highest-ranked ACC wrestler at the weight and returning All-American Hunter Garvin. Garvin holds a 1-0 record against Hamilton, knocking him out of the NCAA tournament last season. This is a very possible ACC title matchup.

As schedules are released during the fall and summer, I tend to pick out matches from that particular schedule as ones to watch. Seeing a late-January dual between Oklahoma State and Northern Iowa seemed like it would be a good one. Fast forward a few months and it's perhaps one of the best of the season. A top-five encounter between #3 Oklahoma State and the hosts, #5 Northern Iowa. Looking at these two teams in the preseason, Oklahoma State certainly had the potential to become a top-three team in year one under David Taylor. A strong returning nucleus, plus the addition of three multi-time All-Americans, had Cowboy fans optimistic as ever. But, potential and results can be different. Oklahoma State has been everything we could have imagined, evidenced by their dominant performance at the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational. All ten Cowboy starters finished in the top-five at their respective weights. Northern Iowa looked like an excellent team, but not quite to the extent that we’ve seen from them throughout the first two and a half months of the year. In November, the Panthers got by a South Dakota State team that featured plenty of returning talent and then won a one-sided matchup against a Missouri team that wasn’t that ravaged by injuries (yet). Doug Schwab’s team really opened eyes nationally with their one-sided (24-9) win over then #4 Nebraska to start January. They’ve kept the momentum going by crushing the field at the National Duals. None of their four opponents scored more than seven points. That set the stage for this top-five matchup between two undefeated Big 12 teams - the scrappy, blue-collar Northern Iowa program that doesn’t care about their lack of resources, they just come to fight. Oklahoma State, on the other hand, received a huge infusion of cash and attention in the offseason as they named Olympic gold medalist David Taylor their new head coach. The contrast between the two programs is stark; however, both are NCAA trophy contenders and are on an upward trajectory. Here’s what to expect from the action on the mat! 125 - #4 Troy Spratley (Oklahoma State) vs. #30 Trever Anderson (Northern Iowa) Just a few weeks ago, this might have been viewed as a huge mismatch. It might still look that way if you’re just looking at the disparity in rankings between Troy Spratley and Trever Anderson. But, Spratley comes into this match off of back-to-back losses to Vincent Robinson (NC State) and Jett Strickenberger (West Virginia). Were those losses a wake-up call for the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational third-place finisher and 2024 Big 12 finalist or a sign of a downward trend? Anderson is also coming in off of back-to-back losses - though his were both at the hands of two top-ten opponents. He started the year with a rough showing at the Grand View Open, where he lost twice to NAIA foes; however, Anderson has been pretty solid since then. He was third at the Soldier Salute and immediately followed that with a win over 2024 All-American Caleb Smith (Nebraska). For a hint at how this match might play out, take a look at last year. Spratley got the dual win but only via a 3-2 margin. The pair did not meet at Big 12’s as Anderson went 0-2 and did not end up qualifying for nationals. Prediction: Spratley by decision (3-0 Oklahoma State) 133 - #19 Cael Hughes/Reece Witcraft (Oklahoma State) vs. #20 Cory Land/Julian Farber (Northern Iowa) No, this isn’t a tag team match, it’s just the rare instance where both teams are two-deep at the same weight and seem to be unsettled as to who’s their long-term starter. In this week’s first coaches rankings, Reece Witcraft and Julian Farber were listed as their respective teams' starters. Witcraft is the veteran who has qualified for nationals on two occasions. He has a fourth-place finish at Vegas on his resume. His pin of Cleveland Belton (Oklahoma) in the Bedlam dual shows just how dangerous Witcraft is at all times, even when trailing by a large margin. The Cowboys also could use Cael Hughes who is unbeaten on the year and posted a fall over returning All-American, Kai Orine (NC State), just over 10 days ago. Cory Land started the year great, but had to injury default out of the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational. He was out of action for more than a month and appeared a little rusty last week in his return at the Cyclone Open. In Land’s absence, Julian Farber has acquitted himself quite well with wins in his last five dual appearances - three of which came against ranked opposition. At National Duals, not only did Farber hand Dominick Serrano (Northern Colorado) his second loss of the year, but it came via major decision. Prediction: Farber by decision (3-3 Tie) 141 - #4 Tagen Jamison (Oklahoma State) vs. #5 Cael Happel (Northern Iowa) Tagen Jamison is having a fantastic season with a CKLV finals loss to top-ranked Jesse Mendez as the only blemish on his 16-match resume this season. He’s almost doubled his bonus-point percentage and has wins over a pair of past All-Americans this season. But, will he be able to finally solve the riddle that has been Cael Happel? The two met three times in 2023-24 and on each occasion Happel got his hand raised. Both wrestlers were shocked in the first round of the 2024 NCAA Tournament and met each other despite starting as the seventh (Happel) and tenth seeds (Jamison), respectively. Happel’s only loss of the year also came in Vegas; however, his came to then-unranked Julian Tagg (South Dakota State) and he forfeited down to eighth place. Happel rang in the New Year with a nice win over rival and 2024 All-American Brock Hardy (Nebraska), someone that Jamison has also defeated this season. This is certainly one of the toss-up matches of the dual and it’s really hard to ignore the 3-0 record that Happel currently sports. Prediction: Happel by decision (6-3 Northern Iowa) 149 - #14 Carter Young (Oklahoma State) vs. #16 Colin Realbuto (Northern Iowa) We’ve got more toss-up’s! One here at 149 lbs and potentially another at the following weight class. Both Carter Young and Colin Realbuto are coming off redshirt seasons, Young’s was the result of an injury and Realbuto used the year to attempt to make the Italian Olympic Team. Despite this year off, we have history between the pair as Young majored Realbuto at the CKLV Invitational. Interestingly enough, Realbuto wrested back for seventh place while Young missed out on the top-eight. For the most part, both wrestlers generally beat the opponents you’d assume they would beat but are both looking for that signature win over a marquee name. While Young got the head-to-head win, Realbuto has three wins this season over wrestlers who have defeated Young (Gabe Willochell x2 and Jesse Vasquez). The Vasquez win came via fall in Realbuto’s most recent outing. He’ll carry a five-match winning streak into this dual - four of which have come with bonus points involved. Young missed Oklahoma State’s most recent dual, but picked up a solid win over freshman Koy Buesgens (NC State) in his last appearance. He’ll have positive vibes on his side as Young has been very good against UNI in the past. In addition to his major decision in Vegas, he is 3-0 career against the Panthers Cael Happel back in his 141 lb days. Prediction: Young by decision (6-6 Tie) 157 - #11 Caleb Fish (Oklahoma State) vs. #4 Ryder Downey (Northern Iowa) Heading into the season, it didn’t appear as if Michigan State transfer Caleb Fish would be the Cowboys starter, but he was pressed into duty and has been rather consistent. Fish took third in a loaded CKLV weight class. He dropped his second match of the tournament and then reeled off six straight wins to claim third. Since then, he’s gone 4-1 in dual competition losing a barnburner to Virginia Tech freshman Rafael Hipolito and downing NC State All-American Ed Scott, by a 12-5 score. Finishing as the runner-up in the same Vegas weight class was Ryder Downey. He lost a very close, and semi-controversial match to Nebraska All-American in the finals. A few weeks later, Downey was able to even up the score and edged Taylor in sudden victory. The CKLV championship loss remains the only L on the ledger for Downey in 2024-25. He’s a returning Big 12 champion and was a fifth seed at his first NCAA Tournament. Both Downey and Fish have advanced to the NCAA bloodround in the past and each came up a match shy of earning All-American status. This certainly could be a preview of a Big 12 final or the type of match you may see deep in the NCAA Tournament. Prediction: Downey by decision (9-6 Northern Iowa) 165 - #6 Cam Amine (Oklahoma State) vs. #21 Jack Thomsen (Northern Iowa) A path to victory for UNI would likely have them banking team points in the first half of the dual - as they are solid underdogs in four of the final five bouts of the evening. That includes this bout where the Cowboys will send out three-time All-American Cam Amine, a graduate transfer from Michigan. Despite the gap in the rankings, you can expect this one to be close as Amine typically doesn’t blow out opponents unless there’s a larger talent disparity. These two met in Vegas and Amine needed extra time to prevail. It was one of two sudden victory wins for Amine during a run to the finals. After going 2-2 in Vegas, Thomsen has been much more consistent with six wins in his last seven duals. He is also a transfer, from South Dakota State, who flourished and made his first NCAA Tournament last season - his first with the Panthers. Since this bout is likely to be close, it could be one that UNI can steal in their efforts to pull the upset. Thomsen needs to find a way to make this a one-move or one-sequence match. That being said, it’s still hard to pick against Amine in this situation. Prediction: Amine decision over Thomsen (9-9 Tie) 174 - #3 Dean Hamiti (Oklahoma State) vs. #16 Jared Simma (Northern Iowa) Undefeated Dean Hamiti will look to stay that way with a tough matchup against NCAA Round of 12 finisher Jared Simma. The two-time All-American Hamiti was excellent for Wisconsin but has found another gear with the Cowboys. He has only had three regular decisions among his 14 wins this year. Hamiti only had one regular decision on his way to winning the CKLV. Since then, he’s beaten four ranked opponents in his last five duals. Simma was the recipient of an at-large berth to his first NCAA Tournament last year and immediately took advantage of his opportunity. He advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals after knocking off the #5 and #21 seeds in his first two bouts. Simma has proven that the run was no fluke and he has been very steady for UNI in 2024-25. Simma was seventh in Vegas (and didn’t meet Hamiti) At the National Duals, Simma did suffer a loss to Ohio’s Garrett Thompson, but also knocked off the returning Big 12 champion Cade DeVos (South Dakota State). The two had split matches earlier in the season with Simma winning in dual competition and DeVos returning the favor in Vegas. I think that with the team score still up-for-grabs at 174, it will push Hamiti to be more offensive than usual (which could be scary) and look for the major decision. Prediction: Hamiti major decision Simma (13-9 Oklahoma State) 184 - #3 Dustin Plott (Oklahoma State) vs. #2 Parker Keckeisen (Northern Iowa) It’s not every day that you get an NCAA finals rematch in dual competition, but that’s what’s on tap for tonight. The 2024 NCAA Championship bout saw Parker Keckeisen finally capture a national title after a 14-5 major decision over frequent rival Dustin Plott. That was the same score when the two clashed in the 2024 Big 12 finals. In their 2023-24 dual, Plott held Keckeisen to a 12-6 regular decision. That was also the case earlier this year, as the pair met in the CKLV finals and Keckeisen won 8-3. That represents only the second decision victory of the year for Keckeisen in 14 matches. The UNI star will carry an official 45-match winning streak into this evening. His All-Star Classic loss to Penn State’s Carter Starocci doesn’t count. With four All-American honors and a national title, Keckeisen has already cemented his legacy as one of the best in the storied history of UNI wrestling. Over the past season and a half, Plott is 43-1 against opponents not named Keckeisen. His 2024 finals appearance gave him three All-American finishes for his career. Earlier this month, Plott eclipsed the 100-win mark. We saw in last year’s dual, Plott was able to limit the damage from Keckeisen. That was the case in Vegas too. Now, can he take steps toward pulling the upset? As things stand now, this is a likely Big 12 finals matchup (again), along with a potential NCAA semifinal clash. Prediction: Keckeisen by decision (13-12 Oklahoma State) 197 - #7 Luke Surber (Oklahoma State) vs. #14 Wyatt Voelker (Northern Iowa) Here’s another bout where Oklahoma State is favored from a rankings standpoint, but you have to look deeper than that. Last season, at the Big 12 Championships, Wyatt Voelker pinned Luke Surber for fifth place. Now, Surber was near the end of an injury-plagued campaign, so it’s likely he wasn’t at his best. You could argue that Surber is near his best now. He is 14-1 on the year with his only loss coming to Virginia Tech’s Andy Smith. Surber was able to avenge that loss in the December dual between the schools. Of his 14 wins, six have come against past national qualifiers - one being a 5-0 blanking of All-American Trey Munoz (Oregon State). Surber went on to take third in Vegas while Voelker finished seventh. Voelker turned in a quality redshirt freshman campaign, but has been even better this year. The difference between his freshman and sophomore year is reflected in his bonus point percentage. It has almost doubled - a figure that is bolstered by his six falls. Despite the result from the 2024 postseason, I think this is the best version of Surber we’ve seen in college and it will continue tonight. Prediction: Surber by decision (16-12 Oklahoma State) 285 - #3 Wyatt Hendrickson (Oklahoma State) vs. #15 Lance Runyon (Northern Iowa) I’m not sure you ever would have expected that this would be a matchup we’d see in college back in 2022, when both were freshman NCAA qualifiers. Wyatt Hendrickson has been a heavyweight his entire collegiate career; however, Runyon was sixth in the Big 12 at 174 lbs that season. Since then, Runyon has suffered through a pair of injury-filled seasons, wrestling only 12 bouts in 2022-23 and none last year. This season, Runyon has resurfaced up a few weight classes and has been very good. He’s 13-3 this year with his losses only coming to wrestlers currently ranked in the top 15. In Vegas, he downed a pair of NCAA qualifiers on his way to a seventh-place finish. Unfortunately, the wrestler who rolled through the Vegas bracket will be on the other side of the mat in Hendrickson. The bonus-point machine has earned his team extra points in all but two of his 13 matches this season. Hendrickson is a two-time NCAA third-place finisher and became the first Air Force wrestler in two decades to make the NCAA podium. He has since graduated from the Academy and joined Oklahoma State for his final year of eligibility. While Oklahoma State’s duals have not necessarily been close thus far, he’s an excellent ace-in-the-hole for David Taylor, one that likely to win every time he steps on the mat and someone likely to rack up bonus points. Should this dual come down to the final match, he’s a good one to have on your side. Prediction: Hendrickson by major decision (20-12 Oklahoma State)

CLEVELAND, Ohio (Jan. 23, 2025) — Cleveland State University (CSU) has announced it will discontinue its three NCAA sport programs in wrestling, women’s golf and softball, following the approval of the CSU Board of Trustees at their meeting on January 23, 2025. CSU made the difficult decision to discontinue these sport programs at the conclusion of their respective seasons this academic year as part of a strategic effort, which began in 2023, to address budgetary shortfalls across the University. In addition to the discontinued programs, the CSU Board of Trustees approved relocating the University’s Esports program from CSU Athletics to CSU’s Washkewicz College of Engineering. These recommendations resulted from a thorough review of CSU Athletics programs by a working group comprised of representatives from CSU Athletics, CSU faculty and the Cleveland community. The difficult decision to discontinue programs was made after careful consideration in keeping with the guiding principles that the working group identified, including aligning with CSU’s commitment to upholding a transformational student-athlete experience and positioning CSU Athletics for long-term success in the classroom, in the community and in competition. “Over the past several years, one of our primary goals has been to restructure our financial model and to evaluate where our students are engaged academically, socially and competitively,” said CSU President Laura Bloomberg, PhD. “As a result, our athletics department, like many other departments at CSU, has had to make difficult decisions regarding the programs we offer.” CSU has assured the impacted student-athletes that they will retain their athletic financial aid while they are students at CSU, and CSU Athletics will support student-athletes as they navigate this transition. Prior to the discontinuation of these three sport programs, CSU provided proportional athletics participation opportunities and expects to continue to do so after these changes. “It is a tough day for Cleveland State Athletics,” said Kelsie Gory Harkey, director of CSU Athletics. “The student-athletes and coaches in the impacted programs have been an important part of the Cleveland State community, and the decision today is not a reflection of the commitment or passion they, our staff or our alumni have to our program.” She added that CSU will be doing everything it can to assist and support the student-athletes in deciding what is best for them to meet their academic and athletic needs. Cleveland State has no plans to discontinue any of its remaining 15 athletic programs.

What does it mean if my sport has been “discontinued?” CSU has announced it will discontinue NCAA sport programs in wrestling, women’s golf and softball. These sports will no longer be offered at CSU after their seasons in the 2024-25 academic year, and CSU will not recruit student-athletes into these sports moving forward. Why is CSU discontinuing three sports? Since 2023, Cleveland State University has been evaluating its program offerings in areas including academic affairs, student services and athletics, in an effort to address budgetary shortfalls across the University. CSU made the difficult decision to discontinue three athletic programs in order to align with its commitment to upholding a transformational student-athlete experience and positioning CSU Athletics for long-term success in the classroom, in the community and in competition. Prior to the discontinuation of these three sport programs, CSU provided proportional athletics participation opportunities and expects to continue to do so after these changes. How was this decision made? This decision was made after a thorough review of CSU Athletics programs by representatives from CSU Athletics, CSU faculty and the Cleveland community. Following that review, recommended changes to CSU Athletics were approved by President Laura Bloomberg and the CSU Board of Trustees. Why was this decision announced now? CSU made the announcement now in order to provide as much time as it could to impacted student-athletes and coaches as they consider their next steps. CSU announced the discontinuation of these sport programs on the day that the CSU Board of Trustees approved these actions. How many student-athletes and coaches are impacted by the decision to discontinue programs? Approximately 60 student-athletes and seven coaches are impacted by this decision. How is CSU providing support to impacted student-athletes? Staff in CSU Athletics will assist impacted students in navigating this transition, including the transfer process. Impacted students who receive athletic financial aid will continue to receive aid while they remain students at CSU through current degree completion. What will happen to the coaches and staff in impacted sports? CSU’s Department of Human Resources will work with all impacted employees to address their needs and support their career transitions. CSU is grateful for the time, energy and enthusiasm of our coaches and athletic staff. How will this decision impact incoming students in discontinued sport programs? Staff in CSU Athletics will assist incoming students whose sports have been discontinued. Impacted incoming students will receive their athletic financial aid while they remain students at CSU through current degree completion. Will CSU discontinue more sports? Cleveland State University has no further plans to discontinue any additional athletic programs at this time. If my sport has been discontinued, can I still compete? Yes, student-athletes in discontinued sport programs will compete in their seasons as planned. Can CSU and CSU Athletics fundraise to keep these sport programs? Gifts to CSU and CSU Athletics are always appreciated and welcome. However, each sport program requires annual funding in perpetuity. The decision to discontinue these programs is final and would not be impacted by additional funding. Why is Esports moving to the Washkewicz College of Engineering? Due to its academic focus and emphasis on innovation, the Washkewicz College of Engineering is best positioned to support students in CSU’s Esports program.

The Big Ten is coming off a pretty good week. In football, they claimed their second straight national championship, and, on the mat, we saw some of the best finally face off in very anticipated matches. Here are the dual meets that gave us some of the best highlights. Penn State passes their toughest test thus far with ease A highly anticipated dual with even more highly anticipated matches. Penn State is the reigning champs, and they have been flexing on their competition even more this year. And last week their trip to Nebraska was their toughest of the season and they won 8 of the 10 matches. At 149, Ridge Lovett claimed a major decision over Shayne Van Ness in a wild match that ended in a major decision win for the Husker. On the PSU side, true freshman Luke Lilledahl had the biggest match of his young career and looked poised against returning All-American Caleb Smith to get the win. Overall, the dual didn’t disappoint but showcased just how tough PSU is this year as they now have all 10 wrestlers ranked in the top 7. Illinois drops one on the road in Iowa City The Hawkeyes continued their strong season with a win at home over Illinois on the strength of eight of ten match wins. This included a bout at 133 between Lucas Byrd and Drake Ayala, which despite the low score, was very entertaining. This is certainly a match that I’m looking forward to seeing again in March. Including that win, the Hawkeyes won six of the eight ranked matches in the dual as well (133, 149, 165, 174, 184, 197), which included a stingy 1-0 win for Kyle Parco over Kannon Webster, along with a 20-4 tech fall for Michael Caliendo over Braeden Scoles. Illinois got some solid wins for Danny Pucino at 141, paired with an impressive victory for Luke Luffman at heavyweight over Ben Kueter. Overall, this was a solid win at home over a strong Fighting Illini team. The Hawkeyes host Ohio State this weekend, while Illinois will travel to the East Coast to compete against Maryland and Rutgers. Boilermakers drop two duals, but notch some nice wins Purdue hosted in-state rival Indiana in front of 3,504 fans at Mackey Arena. They lost the dual 25-11 to the Hoosiers but had some solid wins with a major decision from Matt Ramos at 125 over 22nd ranked Jacob Moran. Purdue also had a win from Isaac Ruble at 149 and Joey Blaze at 157. The Hoosiers took the rest of the bouts in this one with Tyler Lillard winning at 165 and Dylan Gilcher jumping into the lineup at 174 to get a solid win over Brody Baumann. The Hoosiers have wrestled well this season and continue their streak over Purdue. Up next for Purdue was a trip to Columbus Ohio against the Buckeyes. In a dual that had some lopsided matchups, Purdue competed well. Ramos continued his win streak at 125 and notched his 20th win on the season against Brendan McCrone. In the other closely ranked matchup of the dual, Purdue got a win at 157 with Joey Blaze taking a 5-1 decision over Sammy Sasso, who has recently made the descent to 157. Both Ramos and Blaze went undefeated on the weekend. Ohio State travels to Iowa City to compete against the Hawkeyes this weekend. Wolverines battle on the road A busy weekend for Michigan as they notched a win against Northwestern 26-10 with a highlight coming at 141 with former teammates Sergio Lemley getting the win against Chris Cannon. Hearing Lemley speak about it after the fact was refreshing as he shared that he remains friends with Cannon and that it was good competition out there on the mat. On the heels of that win, Dylan Gilcher notched a solid win over Sam Cartella in overtime. Beau Mantanona also got a nice victory at 165 over Max Mayfield. For the Wildcats, Trevor Chumbley took a 5-0 victory over Chase Saldate, paired with wins at 125 and 133 for Dedrcik Navarro and Massey Odiotti, respectively. Michigan continued their road trip against a loaded Golden Gophers squad with guys ranked at each weight. Minnesota wrestled very well and ultimately took the 25-10 dual win, with a strong win for returning All-American Vance Vombaur at 141 over Lemley, along with a sudden victory win for Max McEnelly over Jaden Bullock at 184. Michigan got some upset wins at 149 with Dylan Gilcher continuing his strong weekend upsetting Drew Roberts at 149 using a turn with short time in the second to extend his lead. Mantanona earned his second-ranked win of the weekend, this time with a 7-4 win over ninth-ranked Andrew Sparks. This dual ended with some highly-ranked guys in Jacob Cardenas getting a gritty win at 197, followed by the fireworks that Gable Steveson always provides. Michigan hosts Nebraska this Friday, followed by Indiana this Sunday. Minnesota travels to Wisconsin and Northwestern this weekend, which is also Northwestern's only competition of the weekend.
