I think yes - I was trying to see which team would be the best fit, but its hard. Arizona State?

Kade Orr is back from two years off and transferred from Kent State to Northern Colorado

Donald Cates is back after two years away from wrestling and is expected to start 20 lbs heavier than his last weight class.

Couple of late movers: Mahkyi Smith from Utah Valley to Adams State Cade Gilbert from Little Rock to Central Oklahoma

I think the PAC did not take Cal Baptist before because they require conference schools to have no religious affiliation. Don't quote me on that

Group three is nasty

The team chef insisted on cabbage, beans and broccoli for all.

I'm more of a fan than a media member, but your sentiments are very kind

This is all for fun, so we can make any rules we want. I had only chosen active wrestlers to make my list more easily searchable

I tried to stick to D1 only, so it was hard to use specific names for NOI or even the Quran, so I tried to build out on first names that could broadly fit into a category of a broadly Islamic name based on common origin of the name. 125: Sulayman Bah, Columbia 133: Omar Ayoub, Nebraska 141: Ismael Ayoub, Kent State 149: Marwan Mohammed Nazeer, Morgan State 157: Ibrahim Khan, Rider 165: Ousmane Duncanson, Lock Haven 174: Bekruz Sadriddinov, Lehigh 184: Zahir Mclean-Felix, Cornell 197: Ibrahim Ameer, Drexel 285: Dzhabrail Khurshidov, Michigan I could have added Elijah Griffin and Louis Cerchio if we were trying to emphasize names from Nation of Islam, but did not include since I didn't have any indication that Griffin or Cerchio were named with this in mind.

This thread wasn't meant to be a political statement. We can totally do that list, but it will be slightly more difficult.

non-exhaustive list of some more to consider 125: Brycen Arbogast 133: Richard Figueroa, Tristan Daugherty, Chris Cannon, Louie Gill, Zach Redding, Evan Tallmadge 141: Zeth Romney, Braeden Davis, Anthony Echemendia, Nassir Bailey, Cael Hughes, Pierson Manville, Gable Porter, Jacob Joyce, John Hildebrandt, Jaden Pepe 149: Jacob Frost, Tagen Jamison, Luke Simcox, Richard Fedalen, Michael Gioffre, Brock Herman, Maxwell Peterson, Andre Gonzalez, Conner Eck 157: Ty Watters, Kannon Webster, Jordan Williams, Ty Whalen, Jaivon Jones, Cam Catrabone, Luka Wick, Kai Owen, Daishun Powe, Kaden Milheim, Stoney Buell, Liam Scrivanich, Garrett McChesney, Wesley Barnes 165: Joey Blaze, Peyten Kellar, Matt Bianchi, Ryder Downey, Gabriel Schumm, Alejandro Herrera-Rondon, Sean Seefeldt 174: Cam Steed, Beau Mantanona, Alex Facundo, Enrique Munguia, Nick Fine, Carter Baer, Moses Espinoza-Owens, Eric Alderfer 184: Brock Mantanona, Ian Bush, Chris Moore, Rylan Rogers, Caleb Campos 197: DeAnthony Parker, Bennett Berge, Mikes Squires, Jonathan Chesser 285: AJ Ferrari, Wyatt Voelker, Braxton Amos, Christian Carroll

Elise Brown Ton was previously reported as transferring into Cal Baptist, but similarly to McHenry, he is not on their current roster any longer. I wonder if either will re-emerge on the team for second semester or if the ties have been severed for some reason. other transfers to report: Michael Schiffhauer from Bellarmine to Sacred Heart Mikey Lytle from Cal Baptist to Salem (WV) Max Millin from Edinboro to Tiffin (OH)

Figueroa and Romney

125: Jacob Moran, Indiana 133: Ben Davino, Ohio State 141: Joseph Olivieri, Rutgers 149: Caleb Henson, Virginia Tech 157: Daniel Cardenas, Stanford 165: Joseph Blaze, Purdue 174: Levi Haines, Penn State 184: Aaron Ayzerov, Columbia 197: Josh Barr, Penn State 285: Isaac Trumble, NC State

125: Miriam Hopson, Grand Valley State

Maybe Thomsen can drop back down?

Team Luke is dominant. Team John was looking very weak until I made the allowance for Jack. In the table above, I think that Mark is the worst overall.

Matty Marco Luca Jack Matt Marc Lucas Jon Matthew Mark Luke John 125 Matthew Dolan, West Virginia Marc-Anthony McGowan, Princeton Luke Lilledahl, Penn State Jack Parker, Franklin & Marshall 133 Matty Lopez, Lehigh Marco Tocci, North Carolina Lucas Byrd, Illinois Jack Kazalas, Binghamton 141 Matthew Martino, Princeton Marcus Colson, Mercyherst Luke Stanich, Lehigh Jack Maida, American 149 Matt Hart, Indiana Mark Botello, Cornell Luke Simcox, North Carolina Jack Gioffre, Oklahoma 157 Matt Henrich, Virginia Tech Marco Albanese, Binghamton Luke Nichter, Drexel Jon Ley, Navy 165 Matt Bianchi, Little Rock Marcus Espinoza-Owens, South Dakota State Luke Gayer, Cal Poly Jack Thomsen, Northern Iowa 174 Matthew Olguin, Oregon State Mark Takara, Utah Valley Luca Augustine, Pittsburgh Jack Kelly, George Mason 184 Matthew Singleton, NC State Marcus Petite, Buffalo Lucas Daly, PIttsburgh John Gunderson, Northern Iowa 197 Matt Kowalski, Indiana Mark Gray, Columbia Luke Geog, Ohio State Jack Wehmeyer, Columbia 285 Matthew Moore, Nebraska Marc Berisha, Sacred Heart Luke Luffman, Illinois Jon Chesser, Citadel

Stone Pomeroy from Kent State to Wisconsin-Stevens Point

Lehigh has Rey, Woody and Taylor. Good spot for Kerk

This is what Wrestlestat is showing for Northern Iowa right now - vs what I think its going to be: 125: Trever Anderson - no argument here 133: Julian Farber - in agreement 141: Carter Freeman - I think Cory Land will take it 149: Caleb Rathjen - yep 157: Cael Rahnavardi - I think Ryder Downey or Jack Thomsen sucks down 165: Ryder Downey - see above 174: Jared Simma - yes 184: CJ Walrath - mm hm 197: Kalob Runyon - I think John Gunderson bumps up and surprises folks 285: Wyatt Volker - agreed

We have a great community

They had 48 last year They have 37 this year They gained 17 from portal and new freshman. So that means they lost 28 people from graduation, transfer, or HEW
