Another Avalanche Of Upsets In Week 11
Another Avalanche Of Upsets In Week 11
All the upsets between D1 NCAA wrestlers from week 11 of the 2024-25 season.
The NWCA National Duals and the first week of conference duals brought an avalanche of upsets during the 11th week of the 2024-25 NCAA D1 wrestling season!
The usual caveats apply. Results that look like upsets today won't necessarily look like upsets by the end of the year or even next week. If a wrestler is redshirting or a backup he will not be ranked, like Ben Davino of Ohio State for example, so treat some of these upsets with caution.
Below is a list of all the upsets we could find, ordered by difference in rankings from largest to smallest.
