Another big week of upsets as the 2024-25 continues. Here are all the upsets we could find through week 3, with all the caveats applying and with the understanding that results that look like upsets today may not be considered upsets by the end of the season.

It’s almost time for the college wrestling season and we’re previewing every weight class before the season starts. In the below article, I preview 174-pounds by breaking down the names and dates you need to know to help you get prepared for the college season.

One of the most underrated tournaments of the year kicks off this weekend as the U23 Men's Freestyle Nationals is set to begin Saturday, June 1 at 9:30 AM and conclude Sunday, June 2 with a best two of three series that will begin at 10:00 AM (all times eastern).

The U23 Nationals and U20 World Team Trials brackets will be both massive (mostly the U23 ones) and stacked with some of the most talented and credentialed college wrestlers in the country.

The Hilton Coliseum will be rocking on Sunday afternoon as the #4 Iowa State Cyclones host the #11 Missouri Tigers in a massive matchup on the final day of the regular season.

The #2 Missouri Tigers will travel to Ithaca, New York, to take on the 11th-ranked Cornell Big Red on Sunday afternoon. The dual will be streamed on ESPN+. The last time these two teams met was December 30th, 2019. Missouri had an 18-3 lead going into 174, but Cornell won the last four matches with bonus points from Ben Darmstadt and Brendan Furman to win 19-18. With several toss-up matches and multiple top-10 matchups, this dual has the potential to be just as exciting.

All the usual caveats apply. What are upsets strictly according to the most recent set of NCAA D1 rankings may not look like upsets by the end of the season, or even next week!

One of my favorite age-level tournaments of the year has arrived - the Junior World Team Trials. The nation’s best high school upperclassmen and college underclassmen putting it on the line for a chance to represent their country overseas.

U20 Nationals (formerly known as UWW Junior Nationals) is one of my favorite age-level tournaments every year. The top high school upperclassmen get to test themselves against the best first or second-year college guys who are often hungry to compete coming out of redshirt. It's the first step in making the Junior World Team as the winner of this event will earn an automatic berth to the best-of-three wrestle-off series against the World Team Trials challenge tournament champion in June.
