With the Christmas holiday in the middle of the week, it led to a well-needed break for college wrestling competitions. The period between Christmas and the New Year is traditionally when the Midlands are held. That is the case this year - along with recent addition The Soldier Salute. The Midlands will be hosting their tournament for the 60th time and this will be the third edition of the Salute. These will be the only DI events occurring over the weekend and into Monday. Since it can be difficult to figure out where and when to watch all of these events, InterMat has put together a list of all of the live-streamed events occurring this week. Below are the dates/times and how to watch each match (with links). To make this guide even easier to find, we've added a link on our homepage and the latest Live Streaming Guide will appear right under the header articles. All times are Eastern. Sunday, December 29: Bucknell, Cal Poly, California Baptist, Central Michigan, Edinboro, Franklin & Marshall, George Mason, Harvard, Indiana, Michigan State, Northern Illinois, Northwestern, Penn, Pittsburgh, Princeton, Rider, Rutgers, SIU Edwardsville, Stanford, Wisconsin at Ken Kraft Midlands, Hoffman Estates, IL 10:30 AM B1G+ - Session 1 / B1G+ - Session 2 Bellarmine, Iowa, Minnesota, Navy, North Carolina, Northern Iowa, South Dakota State, Wyoming at Soldier Salute, Coralville, IA 11:00 AM B1G+ - Session 1 / B1G + - Session 2 Monday, December 30: Bucknell, Cal Poly, California Baptist, Central Michigan, Edinboro, Franklin & Marshall, George Mason, Harvard, Indiana, Michigan State, Northern Illinois, Northwestern, Penn, Pittsburgh, Princeton, Rider, Rutgers, SIU Edwardsville, Stanford, Wisconsin at Ken Kraft Midlands, Hoffman Estates, IL 11:30 AM B1G+ - Session 3 / B1G+ - Session 4 Bellarmine, Iowa, Minnesota, Navy, North Carolina, Northern Iowa, South Dakota State, Wyoming at Soldier Salute, Coralville, IA 12:00 PM B1G+ - Session 3 / B1G+ - Session 4

The Midlands Championships have long been one of the premier items on the college wrestling calendar. The 60th edition of the tournament is scheduled to get underway on Sunday from Hoffman Estates, Illinois. Longtime wrestling fans love the tradition of the Midlands being technically an open tournament, so 30 years ago you might find two or three of the top wrestlers on the Olympic ladder squaring off with an NCAA champion. Postgraduate entries have dwindled over the years, so we haven’t seen much of that lately. Also, with coaches using their stars less and less in tournament competition, this (and other) tournaments aren’t as deep as they used to be. Getting all of the “back in the days” stuff out of the way, the 2024 Midlands is still shaping up to be a very tough tournament. Since full entries have not been released two days before the tournament, we aren’t able to do an accurate full preview. With that in mind, here are five individuals or teams that we’ll be paying extra attention to as the tournament progresses. Ben Davino (Ohio State) - 133 lbs Billed as one of the top overall recruits in the Class of 2024 (#4), it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Ben Davino has hit the ground running during the early stages of his collegiate career. Davino is still expected to redshirt during the 2024-25 campaign, but has been used on occasion and has impressed during each of those instances. Davino made his official collegiate debut at the Clarion Open and went 5-0 to claim the title. Along the way, he picked up a win over teammate Nic Bouzakis, which accounted for his only non-bonus-point win of the day. Davino started the tournament with a 14-3 major decision over returning national qualifier Max Leete (American), as well. Last week, at the Collegiate Duals, Davino was used during two dual meets and earned his second top-15 win of the year when he defeated North Carolina’s Ethan Oakley, 5-0. In the final dual of the day, Davino downed Iowa State’s Osmany Diversent - an opponent that has an impressive freestyle background in Cuba. As of now, it’s not certain exactly who else will round out the 133 lb weight class. 2024 Big Ten champion and All-American Dylan Shawver is among Rutgers’ early entries. Should Davino be able to rack up some more quality wins, it will only help his confidence as he turns his attention to spring freestyle and the 2025-26 season. Marc-Anthony McGowan (Princeton) - 125 lbs We might get the long-awaited collegiate debut for Marc-Anthony McGowan, a top recruit for Princeton from the Class of 2023. During the 2023-24 preseason, McGowan suffered an injury that would have shelved him for the entire season. As to maintain the full four years of eligibility, McGowan did not enroll and now is considered a freshman for the Tigers. So, what can we expect from McGowan? It’s really hard to say. I would temper expectations initially since this will be his first official set of matches in maybe a year and a half. McGowan earned his reputation as a blue-chip recruit on the strength of a U17 World Championship in 2019, along with three National Prep titles for Blair Academy, and two Ironman crowns. Should McGowan come back at a level that is commensurate with his prior achievements, it’ll be interesting to see how the Princeton staff handles the situation. Ethan Rivera has gotten the early reps at 125 lbs and has acquitted himself well and currently holds a #29 ranking nationally. Rivera is slated to compete for Princeton at the Midlands, as well. Chance Lamer (Cal Poly) - 149 lbs Perhaps one of the more overlooked 149 lb contenders is Cal Poly’s Chance Lamer. The 149 lb bracket in Vegas contained four of the top-ten wrestlers in the nation; however, Lamer was absent and has only seen action in five bouts thus far in 2024-25. Of course one of his five wins this year came against former Pac-12 rival Jaden Abas of Stanford. The pair have now met four times over the last two seasons with Abas winning their 2023-24 dual meet, but Lamer winning the three most recent bouts. With Stanford in the field and Abas in the early entries, maybe we see match number five. Currently, Lamer sits at #7 in the national rankings, with Abas one spot behind him. With a Midlands title to his name, Lamer could remind the rest of the 149 lb field that he’s a serious contender at the weight. Rutgers From the looks of the early registration, Rutgers could have the whole squad at the Midlands. That’s a good thing for the Scarlet Knights who had a solid first half of the season. They sport an 8-2 record and both dual losses have come against top-ten dual teams from the ACC (#6 Virginia Tech and #8 NC State). While neither qualifies as a “bad loss”, head coach Scott Goodale stated in the preseason that he was tired of his team being ranked in the teens and knows it’s time to break into the next level and be consistently in the top ten. A strong performance in Evanston could be the boost his team needs heading into the Big Ten season. After the New Year, Rutgers jumps right into the meat of the B1G schedule. They’ll face #28 Indiana and #5 Ohio State on the opening weekend of conference duals and hit #1 Penn State and #10 Illinois before the end of January. Getting momentum going into such a brutal stretch is essential for the Scarlet Knights. Individually, the two lightest weights, Dean Peterson and Dylan Shawver are podium threats this season, but each had some surprising losses during the first two months of the season. Each is currently ranked outside of the top-16, but is capable of being much higher. With Rutgers being one of the few teams bringing an entire roster, I’d expect them to put a handful of wrestlers in the semifinals and challenge for titles at most of the ten weights. Harvard One of the teams that we’ve seen very infrequently throughout the first half of the 2024-25 season is Harvard. The Crimson tend to hit a couple of tournaments throughout the first half before going dual-heavy after the New Year. We got a taste of a potential lineup for Harvard at the Keystone Classic and CKLV, but we should get a more extensive look at them at the Midlands. I point them out because Harvard could be an intriguing team. They have an established 125 lber in Diego Sotelo. Sotelo was fifth here in 2023 and won a pair of matches at the 2024 NCAA Tournament. In a constantly changing 125 lb weight class, he’s an outside podium challenger. Outside of their established leader, the Crimson have a handful of young guys who have had flashes of potential this year. Jameson Garcia (141), Jimmy Harrington (157), and Matthew Walsh (184) have all had their moments. Garcia had a one-point win over Julian Tagg (South Dakota State) in Vegas, Harrington upset All-American Ed Scott in his season debut and Walsh majored Rutgers national qualifier Brian Soldano at the Journeymen Collegiate Classic. If this crew is able to produce that level of results on a consistent basis, they have the makings of a strong nucleus.

Movement Movement Movement. Thanks to multiple tri and quad meets along with some tournaments, we have a lot of Overall Standings movement, including a new #1. For these standings, we will be using the Basic Fantasy Scoring through @WrestleStat (Win by Dec +3, Loss by Dec -3, Win by Pin +6, Loss by Pin -6, etc). Only results against D1 competition (starters, backups, and redshirts) will count towards Fantasy Points. Standings are first ordered based on total Fpts, then if tied by Points Per Match (PPM). Week 8 Notes: For Week 8, Josh Heindselman comes in as the top wrestler thanks to his bonus run through the Kent State Open with three pins and one tech. Coming in just behind Heindselman is Brown’s Blake Saito who had a similar run through the Kent State Open, but had a major in place of a pin to end the week with 21 Fpts. With the most matches in Week 8 to make the Top-32, Jacob Macatangay (PUR) wrestled six matches amassing 19 Fpts and good for #6 in the weekly standings. As for the Overall, a new #1 takes the lead with Brendan McCrone and Matt Ramos switching spots, and Evan Maag staying put as #2. McCrone bonuses all three of his Collegiate Dual matches by a different result (one pin, one tech, and one major). This pushed McCrone to 69 Fpts, while Ramos “only” had one match won by tech. Two wrestlers in the Overall Top-33 have hit the 20 match mark, with Garrett Thompson being the more successful than the other, Drake Rhodes. Garrett Thompson put in a 16 Fpt week 8 to jump into the Overall Top-10, while Rhodes finished Week8 with 11 Fpts and sits at #15. Week 8 Leaders Year-Long Fantasy Point Standings

We’re almost two months into the college season and there have been plenty of standout performances throughout the season. Each week, conference wrestlers of the week get announced and are honored.

As you might expect, there were plenty of changes after a week that included a ton of duals. There are currently no wrestlers in the rankings who have not competed during the 2024-25 season. Missouri’s Rocky Elam was removed from the 197 lb ranking - which led to Mizzou taking a big tumble in the team tournament rankings. As always, once he returns he’ll be inserted in a fair position. You probably noticed that Yonger Bastida wrestled in one of Iowa State’s three duals at the Collegiate Duals. We still have Daniel Herrera in the rankings for the Cyclones as Bastida’s long-term status is still unclear. Speaking of the Cyclones, we expect Anthony Echemendia to drop to 141 and Paniro Johnson to 149. Once they actually get down and compete, they’ll be ranked at those weights. I had a question a few weeks ago about Richie Figueroa vs. Troy Spratley for the #2 spot at 125 lbs. Figueroa has only competed in three matches - but has the 2024 national title. Spratley finally jumps over Figueroa after his win over Eddie Ventresca. With that win, Spratley has 2024-25 wins over the wrestlers ranked in the #4-#7 slots. Oh yeah, by the way, Keegan O’Toole won the super match with Levi Haines and solidified his standing as #1 at 174 lbs. Penn State had Braeden Davis and Josh Barr move into the top-five at their respective weights. The Nittany Lions have top-five wrestlers at nine of ten weights. For the full rankings: Click Here

This weekend marked the fourth edition of Journeymen’s Collegiate Duals. As has been the case in the past, Journeymen rounded up a high-quality set of teams and put them together to battle in one of the marquee events of the college wrestling season. The 2024 version of the Collegiate Duals featured a mixed bag of results. Maybe if you’re a Penn State fan, you liked the show of force against two ranked teams. If you’re not, then you didn’t get anything resembling a nail-biter. On one end of things, we saw one of the best possible individual matchups of the year, but also saw a few duals that weren’t as good as they could have been due to injuries. So, here are our five takeaways from the 2024 Collegiate Duals. Keegan O’Toole Solidifies #1 Ranking One of the most anticipated matches of the year went down last night in the final round of day two at the Collegiate Duals as the top two 174 lbers in the country clashed. Keegan O’Toole retained his number-one ranking by holding off Levi Haines in overtime during a battle between two past national champions. The match itself was very tactical throughout the first seven minutes. Both wrestlers were hesitant to take a committed attack and we only saw escapes on the board after three periods of wrestling. The action picked up in the two-minute sudden victory period. Approximately :15 seconds into the period, Haines looked for a high crotch to a dump, but wasn’t able to stun O’Toole, who then countered with a shot of his own. That led to a prolonged scramble with saw both wrestlers nearly finish the winning takedown. Late in that sequence, Haines was behind O’Toole, but up around his shoulders, rather than at his waist. O’Toole still had one of Haines’ arms tied up and eventually squirmed out from the position, covered Haines’ legs, and locked up the winning takedown. The sequence was reviewed by the official and the original call was upheld and O’Toole was declared the winner. From a big-picture standpoint, I imagine the wrestling community would love to see round two between these national champions. I know I would. Also, looking beyond the one match, we have undefeated Vegas champion Dean Hamiti of Oklahoma State in the mix. Does he hop over Haines in the rankings? How does he impact a potential rematch? Hamiti and O’Toole are slated to meet in dual competition (February 2nd) and would likely face each other at the Big 12 Championships. O’Toole and Hamiti have not faced each other in an official collegiate bout; however, they did meet at the 2022 NWCA All-Star Classic and O’Toole prevailed, 7-1. We have plenty of time between now and the NCAA Tournament, but the upcoming matches between O’Toole and Hamiti will go a long way in determining NCAA seeds. Someone will have the one seed - while the other two will have battled it out in the bottom half of the bracket, just to make the national finals. But for now, O’Toole is the number one 174 lber in the land. Before Sunday, I’m sure some felt Haines should be ranked first because of his win over the Tiger great in freestyle this fall, or because of his unbeaten 2023-24 season at 157 lbs. Those discussions can be tabled for now. At the same time, if Haines were to defeat O’Toole in Philly, I don’t know if anyone would be shocked. Penn State Goes 29-1 Sunday saw Penn State wrestle in three duals - two of which came against teams currently ranked in the top-16 nationally. Of the 30 bouts in those three duals, the Nittany Lions only suffered one loss! Of course, it was the aforementioned bout between Levi Haines and Keegan O’Toole - not even an upset, just a loss to one of the top pound-for-pound wrestlers in the nation. When the new set of national rankings comes out tomorrow, they might feature a Penn State wrestler in the top five at nine of the ten weights. Two wrestlers who earned a bump in the rankings on Sunday include Braeden Davis at 133 lbs and Josh Barr at 197 lbs. Both picked up wins over returning All-Americans during their dual with Little Rock. The Barr win was something that many saw coming after his stunning major decision win over two-time All-American Michael Beard of Lehigh. Davis we weren’t sure about up at a new weight and without having faced any of the top contenders at 133 lbs. That changed as he eked out a 1-0 win over returning NCAA fourth-place finisher Nasir Bailey. The only PSU wrestler who is on pace to be outside of the top five on Tuesday morning is 125 lber Luke Lilledahl. The same Lilledahl was the new one overall recruit in the Class of 2024 and a U17 and U20 world champion. By the luck of the draw, Lilledahl hasn’t faced any of the elite 125 lbers to prove he’s deserving of a top-five ranking. He’s passed every test otherwise and has the pedigree, so it almost seems inevitable that he’ll climb into contender status soon. Last year, we threw around the “will they, won’t they” argument relating to matching Minnesota’s legendary 2001 team that featured an All-American at all ten weights. They ended up missing out with “only” two starters finishing outside of the top eight in Kansas City. With nine likely in the top five before New Year’s Day and the bluest of the blue-chip recruits also in the mix, it will be a topic that comes up sooner rather than later. From the team aspect, I asked some friends Sunday night “How many teams could legitimately claim to win two or more matches against Penn State.” Iowa, Nebraska, Little Rock (still lost two close ones), Oklahoma State, Minnesota, Ohio State, and Missouri. Maybe others are capable of it and they do have to wrestle matches on the mat and not paper - but just the thought of that question is kind of ridiculous. We’re not asking, “Can they beat Penn State?” It's merely who is capable of winning two of ten individual matches. Crazy. Kharchla’s Back and 3-0 A potentially overlooked storyline from the weekend was the season debut of Carson Kharchla. The 2022 All-American was lost for the year last season - right around this time. A few weeks ago, we heard that the Ohio State staff was pointing toward Nashville as a potential spot for Kharchla’s return, but you never know how those things work and the potential setbacks that may arise. Well, Nashville was accurate and Kharchla looked fine for being away from competition for just over a year. In fact, the best sign may have been that the Ohio State staff was comfortable enough to send him out for all three duals. With tread on Kharchla’s tires and his injury history, I’m sure the Buckeye staff would have reigned him in at the first sign of a tweak - and they would be justified in doing so. That didn’t happen and Kharchla picked up three solid wins. His return coincided with a veteran from North Carolina making his season debut, as well, when he defeated Josh Ogunsanya 10-3. Two years ago, the pair met and Kharchla won 6-3. During his other two bouts, Kharchla did what you’d expect. A tech fall win over James Lledo of Lock Haven and an 8-4 victory against Iowa State’s Aiden Riggins. None of these results or even the “eyeball” test suggest that Kharchla is ready to break into the O’Toole/Haines/Hamiti triumvirate at the top of the 174 lb weight class, however, after the “big three” this weight class seems very wide open. A healthy Kharchla could establish himself as a strong podium finisher (maybe more) in the coming months. More Lineup Craziness (Mizzou/Iowa State) We mentioned it in our preview, but to reiterate - seeing Little Rock/Penn State versus Missouri or Ohio State/North Carolina against Iowa State over the summer seemed like some of the juiciest non-conference duals of the year. We in the media and the wrestling fanbase can get annoyed when big matches don’t happen or top teams avoid each other. In this instance, the coaches and event organizers did it right and set up some high-quality potential duals. Unfortunately, stuff happened. Both Iowa State and Missouri have been hit hard by injuries during the first two months of the season. Both teams were a shell of their ideal selves. Missouri lost their veteran 125 lber to a retirement (Noah Surtin) from various injuries (though they do have a promising freshman - Gage Walker) and four-time All-American Rocky Elam has yet to wrestle a match in 2024-25. Heavyweight Seth Nitzel wasn’t available. Promising 165 lber Cam Steed was banged up in the Illinois dual and returned Sunday only to get knocked out cold in his first match back. Their ideal 149 lber Logan Gioffre may be moving up to 157 lbs. It’s just one of those years for Mizzou. With O’Toole in the mix for another title and hopefully Elam and some combination of Josh Edmond/Steed/Colton Hawks threatening the NCAA podium, I think Missouri will seem normal at the NCAA Tournament, but until then, things could be rough. Iowa State has been trying to get their weight classes right all year. The return of Cody Chittum from a potential redshirt signals that Anthony Echemendia and Paniro Johnson bumping down is in the works. MJ Gaitan moved down to 165, but will move back to 174. Yonger Bastida could be a high finisher at 285 lbs, but an injury has put his season in jeopardy. Even though he wrestled one match Saturday, that’s still the case. In addition to the weight change, Echemendia was said to be out of the lineup due to an injury. A bit of good news for the Cyclones was getting veteran Kysen Terukina back at 125 lbs. Terukina won both of his matches on Saturday and his presence could allow Adrian Meza to be kept in redshirt. Similar to Mizzou, if all things come together for Iowa State, as planned, they could be in the NCAA trophy hunt again in Philly. For the Cyclones, I’ll have to wait and see it as there’s a lot of movement that needs to take place before then. The Stream In articles like this over the years, I’ve criticized FloWrestling for streaming/broadcast issues. The Collegiate Duals were streamed on Rokfin - just as they have for the last four years. Unlike the previous three editions, this year's broadcast had some serious issues. For full disclosure, InterMat has a presence on Rokfin. That’s no secret. Saturday’s portion of the event got off to a rocky start and people had difficulty accessing the stream on time and, as a result, might have missed the first match of the first round of duals. After that, it seemed like Saturday was good. Sunday, on the other hand, viewers had similar issues where they ended up missing the first half of the first round of duals. To their credit, the Rokfin staff put the dual up for free on the Rokfin YouTube page. Obviously, the damage had been done. You don’t tune into a football game and miss the entire first quarter. There was also some confusion as the second round of duals started on the YouTube stream and then moved over to Rokfin and, at a later point, the YouTube stream was revived. There’s no way around it. It was very messy for fans and not a good look. In addition to the other schools that participated, Penn State has a massive fan base and plenty of popular wrestlers, so an issue with their stream is only going to get magnified. I don’t know the actual issues surrounding the stream, but what I do know is that there will be trust that needs to be rebuilt from Rokfin to wrestling fans. To FloWrestling’s credit, they stream a lot(!) of wrestling events. There are issues from time-to-time, but they probably take an inordinate amount of heat for those past streaming problems, many of which are years old, at this point. But it goes to show you that an issue with one event can create lasting negative impressions about your company. With that in mind, there are a handful of wrestling pages across Rokfin that stream wrestling events. I hope that fans give Rokfin a chance, as this hasn’t been the case with other broadcasts I’ve seen and the first three Collegiate Duals from Journeymen. For those doing the streaming, it’s a reminder to double and triple-check everything possible on your end to provide a professional broadcast. I’ve heard “the internet is really bad in this building” before (I don’t know if that was the case in Nashville). It seems like that’s a recipe for disaster if you’re planning on streaming a live event from a building with bad internet. Along with checking streaming, for the actual presentation, look at your wrestler’s names/school names/logos. Want to annoy someone quickly? Spell their son or daughter’s name wrong. I think all of us in the wrestling community wish that wrestling was more mainstream and we didn’t have to rely on online viewing for 95% of our wrestling action. But, if we can’t get streaming down, I don’t know how we can prove to the outside world that our sport is worth investing time and money. I normally have a better way of wrapping these articles up, but I’ll just say that I hope we can get streaming issues smoothed out in our sport and that I hope fans don’t completely eliminate Rokfin as an option in the future.

Over the weekend, one of the top high school girls in the country won a prestigious tournament and then announced her collegiate intentions - all within a day or so. Calli Gilchrist (Choate Rosemary Hall, CT) announced she will continue her wrestling career at Brown University. Currently, Brown does not have a women’s team; however, there has been a trend of women wrestling at the club level in the Ivy/EIWA and, in some instances, being a member of the men’s team. In addition to her collegiate decision, Gilchrist also won the Beast of the East over the weekend. She ran through the 120 lb bracket without surrendering a point. She compiled three falls to go along with a pair of 5-0 decisions. In the finals, Gilchrist needed just over a minute to pin New Jersey freshman Elle Changaris. Other national credentials for Gilchrist include a third place showing in Fargo this summer at the Junior level. A few months earlier she was a champion at NHSCA Nationals. Gilchrist capped off her junior year of high school with a National Prep championship at 114 lbs. FloWrestling has Gilchrist labeled as the #5 overall recruit in the girl's high school Class of 2025. Currently, Gilchrist is ranked fourth in the country at 125 lbs. For all of the girls who have committed to wrestle at the next level and notified InterMat: Click Here

The Beast of the East took place on Saturday and Sunday on the campus of the University of Delaware. The Beast has long been regarded as one of the best in-season tournaments in the country. Competitors traveled from all over the nation to solidify themselves as one of the country’s best. The Beast is different than the Ironman because of the way it falls on the high school wrestling schedule. The Ironman is a week before New Jersey high schools are allowed to start competition. The Beast is after that dates and features many of them. Below are wrestlers who have already committed to wrestle in college and participated in the 2024 Beast of the East.

The Journeymen Collegiate Duals kick off tomorrow from Nashville, Tennessee, and will feature two days' worth of high-quality dual action. Today we’re focusing on the second day of competition - one that will see #1 Penn State, #15 Missouri, #16 Little Rock, and Binghamton do battle in dual action. Each team will meet the other three throughout the day. Below, we’ve highlighted some of the ranked versus ranked bouts in each dual—along with a few others that might be intriguing. If we are confident that the match won’t happen, then it wasn’t listened to, even if ranked wrestlers were involved (i.e., any potential bout that includes Rocky Elam). You can watch the action live on Rokfin! #1 Penn State vs. Binghamton 125 lbs: #12 Luke Lilledahl (Penn State) vs. #33 Carson Wagner (Binghamton) 174 lbs: #2 Levi Haines (Penn State) vs. #12 Brevin Cassella (Binghamton) 184 lbs: #1 Carter Starocci (Penn State) vs. #23 Will Ebert (Binghamton) 285 lbs: #2 Greg Kerkvliet (Penn State) vs. #17 Cory Day (Binghamton) #15 Missouri vs. #16 Little Rock 157 lbs: #32 J Conway (Missouri) vs. #20 Matt Bianchi (Little Rock) 165 lbs: #16 Cam Steed (Missouri) vs. #21 Joey Bianchi (Little Rock) 174 lbs: #1 Keegan O’Toole (Missouri) vs. #33 Tyler Brennan (Little Rock) 184 lbs: #10 Colton Hawks (Missouri) vs. #16 Brock DelSignore (Little Rock) 197 lbs: UR Aeoden Sinclair (Missouri) vs. #5 Stephen Little (Little Rock) #15 Missouri vs. Binghamton 174 lbs: #1 Keegan O’Toole (Missouri) vs. #12 Brevin Cassella (Binghamton) 184 lbs: #10 Colton Hawks (Missouri) vs. #23 Will Ebert (Binghamton) 285 lbs: #19 Seth Nitzel (Missouri) vs. #17 Cory Day (Binghamton) #1 Penn State vs. #16 Little Rock 133 lbs: #10 Braeden Davis (Penn State) vs. #5 Nasir Bailey (Little Rock) 149 lbs: #2 Shayne Van Ness (Penn State) vs. #16 Jordan Williams (Little Rock) 157 lbs: #4 Tyler Kasak (Penn State) vs. #20 Matt Bianchi (Little Rock) 165 lbs: #1 Mitchell Mesenbrink (Penn State) vs. #21 Joey Bianchi (Little Rock) 174 lbs: #2 Levi Haines (Penn State) vs. #33 Tyler Brennan (Little Rock) 184 lbs: #1 Carter Starocci (Penn State) vs. #16 Brock DelSignore (Little Rock) 197 lbs: #7 Josh Barr (Penn State) vs. #5 Stephen Little (Little Rock) #16 Little Rock vs Binghamton 174 lbs: #33 Tyler Brennan (Little Rock) vs. #12 Brevin Cassella (Binghamton) 184 lbs: #16 Brock DelSignore (Little Rock) vs. #23 Will Ebert (Binghamton) #1 Penn State vs. #15 Missouri 141 lbs: #3 Beau Bartlett (Penn State) vs. #16 Josh Edmond (Missouri) 157 lbs: #4 Tyler Kasak (Penn State) vs. #32 J Conway (Missouri) 165 lbs: #1 Mitchell Mesenbrink (Penn State) vs. #16 Cam Steed (Missouri) 174 lbs: #2 Levi Haines (Penn State) vs. #1 Keegan O’Toole (Missouri) 184 lbs: #1 Carter Starocci (Penn State) vs. #10 Colton Hawks (Missouri) 197 lbs: #7 Josh Barr (Penn State) vs. UR Aeoden Sinclair (Missouri) 285 lbs: #2 Greg Kerkvliet (Penn State) vs. #19 Seth Nitzel (Missouri) What can we expect from Missouri? We started the written portion of yesterday’s preview asking the same question about Iowa State. It applies to Missouri, as well. The Tigers are typically a ridiculously tough dual team, but they’ve run into a bit of bad luck. Recently, 125 lber Noah Surtin announced he would have to retire due to ongoing medical issues. Four-time All-American Rocky Elam has yet to wrestle a match. Promising 165 lber Cam Steed was injured during the Illinois dual. The hits keep on coming. In addition to those, 184 lber Colton Hawks and heavyweight Seth Nitzel were recently nicked up. There’s a chance that neither is in action tomorrow. Also, we may not see Logan Gioffre at 149 lbs. With all of these injuries, it’s tough facing quality opponents, but on Sunday Missouri is set to take on top-ranked Penn State. They would be an imposing task for a completely healthy Tiger team. The Duals would mark the last time that Aeoden Sinclair could compete and maintain his redshirt. If he wrestles, he could have his hands full with a pair of top-ten opponents #5 Stephen Little and #7 Josh Barr. Speaking of true freshmen, I’d expect Gage Walker to get the nod going forward at 125 lbs. He has gotten four starts while filling in for Surtin and has proven to be capable himself. #1 vs #2 The individual highlight for Sunday is the potential matchup of #1 and #2 at 174 lbs when national champions Keegan O’Toole and Levi Haines are set to square off. This fall, the two met in freestyle at the World Team Trials and Haines won 6-0. Freestyle can be a bit different, but it’s something to consider when trying to break down this match. Both moved up to 174 lbs in the offseason - Haines from 157 and O’Toole from 165. Neither has seemed to have an issue with the size of their opponents. Something has to give as both wrestlers have defeated all of their 2024-25 opponents via bonus points. Haines comes in after pinning his last four foes. O’Toole has majored top-20 opponents in two of his last three matches. This matchup could have significant NCAA seeding implications. The winner holds the #1 spot in the rankings (for now) and the loser might have to go through #3 Dean Hamiti in the NCAA semis. Of course, O’Toole and Hamiti will likely meet twice before then, so there’s a lot of wrestling between now and NCAA seeding time. Ebert Watch One of the pleasant developments from the first month of the season was the emergence of Binghamton’s Will Ebert. In his season debut, Ebert stunned Big Ten champion and All-American Edmond Ruth. A day later, he picked up some quality wins at the Journeymen Collegiate Classic. Unfortunately, Ebert went 2-2 in Vegas - even though neither loss could be classified as “bad.” In his last outing, Ebert was knocked off by Long Island’s Anthony D’Alesio. Things don’t get any easier in Nashville as Ebert could face #1 Carter Starocci, #10 Colton Hawks, and #16 Brock DelSignore. That being said, a win or two could be all the momentum he needs for the remainder of the season. The Champs Top-ranked Penn State comes in with a 3-0 dual record and they’ve only lost two individual matches during their three duals. They’ve outscored the competition 131-6. Looking at the potential matchups, it’s hard to envision Binghamton, Little Rock, or Missouri being able to keep things competitive with the Nittany Lions. Of their ideal starters, only one has a loss so far this season. Dual to Watch: Penn State vs Little Rock. Circling back to the previous paragraph, I don’t see anyone on Sunday giving Penn State a run for their money or anything close to it. That being said, the Little Rock dual has a few intriguing matches - two of which the Trojans are currently favored in the rankings. At 133 lbs you have returning NCAA fourth-place finisher Nasir Bailey against Big Ten champion Braeden Davis. Bailey lost a tight bout at the All-Star Classic to Lucas Byrd and recently was stunned by Chattanooga’s Blake Boarman. Was there an injury in play? Was Bailey looking ahead to this weekend and Penn State? Davis has only three matches of experience this year at 133 lbs, so there isn’t much to judge him on. A meeting with Bailey would help where he fits in the pecking order of this wild weight class. Davis does have a loss on his resume as he dropped a close match to Lehigh’s top-ranked Ryan Crookham. The other highlighted matchup from this dual takes place at 197 lbs with #5 Stephen Little and #7 Josh Barr. Little took the country by surprise last year and ended up on the NCAA podium as a freshman. He isn’t sneaking up on anyone this year but currently holds a 6-0 record with five bonus-point wins. Barr was expected to wrestle 184 for the Nittany Lions this year, but bulked up as Starocci moved up. Barr showed what he was capable of during the Lehigh dual when he dismantled two-time All-American Michael Beard. That win sent him shooting up the rankings. Could he climb even higher after Sunday? In addition, there are several other matches with interesting storylines. At 149 lbs, second-ranked Shayne Van Ness will face #16 Jordan Williams. Earlier this week, Williams made his official debut with Little Rock - after previously competing unattached. Williams was a massive recruit coming out of high school for Oklahoma State. During his redshirt freshman season (2023-24), Williams was solid, but a bit inconsistent. With his talent and pedigree, if Williams can put it all together, he is someone who could challenge the likes of Van Ness. At 165 lbs, with #1 Mitchell Mesenbrink and #21 Joey Bianchi, you have a pair of wrestlers who are Wisconsin natives and set to do battle in Nashville.

Lehigh’s impressive recruiting Class of 2026 continued to improve Friday as they received a verbal commitment from the #14 overall junior, Dean Bechtold (Owen J. Roberts, PA). Bechtold is currently ranked fourth in the nation at 285 lbs. Bechtold is a two-time Pennsylvania state placewinner at the AAA level. He was sixth in the state as a freshman at 189 lbs and made the 285 lbs finals last season. Since the 2024 PIAA Tournament, Bechtold has flown up the recruiting rankings based on his accolades at national tournaments. In the spring, Bechtold was a finalist at the UWW U17 Freestyle Trials. A few months later, he placed in the Junior age group in both styles in Fargo. In October, Bechtold captured a championship belt with the 285 lb title at the Super 32. It marked the second time that Bechtold had broken into the top at the tournament. Last year, he was eighth. Also in 2023, Bechtold earned All-American honors in Fargo in both styles at the 16U tournament. Bechtold will fit in nicely with a Lehigh team set to welcome Owen Trephan in as the starter during the second semester. He only has a year of eligibility remaining. The previous starter, Nathan Taylor, has been lost for the year because of an injury. Taylor is set to be a senior next year; though he may be eligible for a medical redshirt. If that’s the case, he could finish up while Bechtold redshirts, himself. Bechtold decided to commit to Lehigh after visiting NC State, Nebraska, Penn State, and Rutgers. His older brother, Dillon, is the freshman starter at 197 lbs for Bucknell. Bechtold’s addition now gives Lehigh three of the top wrestlers in the Class of 2026 - joining #17 Keanu Dillard and #24 Cael Wiedemoyer. #93 Jason Singer’s presence gives Lehigh four top-100 recruits from the junior class.
