Several tournaments helped stir the chaos in week 4 of the 2024-25 NCAA D1 wrestling season that saw nearly 50 upsets take place!

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 184-pound class will crown a new NCAA champion for the first time since 2021. Penn State’s Aaron Brooks had a lockdown on the weight for three straight seasons but moved up to 197 for his senior year.

It's hard to overstate how much exciting college wrestling took place this past weekend. All seven conferences held their championships over the last few days and determined the majority of the qualifiers for the 2024 NCAA Championships that will take place in less than two weeks in Kansas City, Missouri.

The Big Ten, the nation's toughest and deepest college wrestling conference will hold their championship on Saturday and Sunday, March 9-10 in the Xfinity Center on the University of Maryland's College Park campus, and no we have the pressed for the tournament!

After two years away from competition due to a knee injury he sustained in 2020, Nebraska’s Lenny Pinto returned last season and had a solid campaign that didn’t end the way he wanted. This year, he may be one of the most improved wrestlers in the country as he’s worked his way up from a preseason #14 ranking all the way to #3 at 184 pounds.

Another week of NCAA D1 college wrestling brought another bevy of upsets.

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.
