With six of eight All-Americans returning, including the champ, 184 is going to look very similar to last season. The big question is: can anyone catch Penn State’s Aaron Brooks? The fourth-year senior is 35-1 in the past two seasons and the only man to defeat him in that time has left.

This weight is similar to last season where the field is deep and at least 20 different wrestlers have a legitimate shot of finding their way to the podium. Returning champion Max Dean of Penn State is the favorite after a 23-1 season.

165-pounds in 2022-23 season is without a doubt the deepest weight in the country. There will be 3 past NCAA champions in the weight along with a number of returning All-Americans who will be able to challenge the favorites. In the preview below, we’ll take a deep dive into this incredible weight class for the upcoming season

There are lots of familiar faces in this weight with Yianni Diakomihalis leading the way. The Cornell senior won a pair of NCAA titles at 141 pounds (2018-19) before moving up to 149 for the 2022 campaign where he won his third championship.

With the 2021 champ moving up to 165 and the 2022 champ moving on to coaching, 157 has become a weight very much up for grabs. There will be some key guys hopefully healed up, moving up, and coming in. Let’s dig in!

The last three years of NCAA wrestling have been anything but typical. And the next few seasons are primed to stay on the peculiar end of the spectrum thanks to the extra year of eligibility granted every wrestler who participated in the 2021 season.

133-pounds during the 2022-23 season will be incredible! The story lines are endless…Roman Bravo-Young coming back to attempt to win his third-straight NCAA title. Daton Fix looking to win his first NCAA title after finishing runner-up THREE TIMES. Will anyone get in the way of another rematch between Fix and RBY in the NCAA finals?

While most weight classes have a lot of familiar faces due to the extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA, there was a mass exodus at 141 lbs after the 2021-2022 season. 1-5 in FloWrestling’s final season ranking all graduated and moved on. This leaves 141 lbs as one of the most up-for-grabs and intriguing weight classes of the season!
