Canadian Collegiate U Sports Changes Transfer Rules
by Jake Bridges 2
September 18th, 2025Canada, College, International, News, Transfers, U Sports
U SPORTS, the governing body for university and college sports in Canada, has updated its transfer rules. First or second-year athletes in the Canadian university system can now transfer schools without penalty. Previously, athletes who transferred in the Canadian system were forced to sit out one calendar year of competition; however, this rule did not apply to all sports. Swimming, cross-country, and track and field had exemptions.
The update also paves the way for easier transfer from NCAA or NAIA schools to a Canadian University, as the 365-day sit-out period previously applied to such transfers.
The new ruleset will come into effect in the 2026-2027 season.
When speaking on the decision, U Sports CEO Pierre Arsenault said, “The landscape of post-secondary sport is evolving, and our role is to ensure our policies reflect the needs of those we serve.”
The change in policy is well timed. In the United States, the House Settlement established new limits on roster sizes across NCAA sports. Most programs are being forced to decrease their size and cut athletes, meaning that as we enter the post-House era, there will be more athletes in the U.S. than roster spots. U SPORTS’ new policy allows them to be a viable alternative for those athletes.
While U SPORTS lagged behind the NCAA in transfer policy, historically, their rulebook has been less restrictive than the NCAA’s.
U SPORTS, for example, does not impose a five-year window … more at … https://swimswam.com/canadian-collegiate-u-sports-changes-transfer-rules/

Wittenberg to Sponsor Donor-Supported Men’s and Women’s Wrestling Programs Starting in 2026-27 School Year
SPRINGFIELD, OH – The last time wrestling singlets were adorned with the iconic Wittenberg logo, the year was 1990, and the majority of Wittenberg’s intercollegiate athletics teams had just started competition in a new league.
Fast forward to 2025 and Wittenberg, which discontinued its wrestling program at the conclusion of the 1989-90 school year, has won more than 130 team championships across a variety of sports as a member of the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC). While the league has never sponsored competition in the sport, calls from Wittenberg alumni to bring wrestling back have never ceased.
Those calls have grown louder in recent years until they reached a crescendo this year. A group of wrestling alumni stepped forward to support the University by providing financial backing to not only re-start Wittenberg’s men’s wrestling program but also offer a new women’s wrestling program as well.
“We are deeply grateful to our supportive alumni and friends who, as donors, are allowing us to expand our athletics offerings without requiring additional investments from the University,” said Wittenberg President Christian M.M. Brady, DPhil (Oxon.). “This model preserves our financial future and positions us to offer a program of great interest and an overall excellent academic and educational experience to our current and prospective students.”
Both teams will start competition in the 2026-27 school year, following a year that will be dedicated to recruiting. A search for a new coach is already underway. “We are extremely excited about the reinstatement of our wrestling program, which will include a women’s team,” … more at … https://www.wittenberg.edu/news/07-31-25/wrestling-returns-wittenberg
Women’s Wrestling Coming to St. Ambrose in 2026-27
St. Ambrose University is announcing the addition of a varsity women’s wrestling program, building on its legacy of athletic excellence and opportunities for student-athletes. The team will begin official competition in the 2026–27 academic year, with a head coach to be hired during this academic year to lead recruiting, scheduling, and program development.
“As early as four years ago, we saw the tremendous momentum behind girls’ wrestling at the high school level, especially in Iowa and Illinois,” said Mike Holmes, Director of Athletics at St. Ambrose. “We’ve had our eye on this opportunity ever since, and we’re excited to bring that vision to life for our Ambrosian student-athletes.”
The launch of the women’s program builds upon the university’s strategic facilities plan, which included future expansion when the men’s wrestling program was launched in 2021. The current wrestling facility was constructed with dedicated space for a women’s team, including locker rooms and office space.
The university is applying for the women’s wrestling team to compete in the Heart of America Athletic Conference, the same conference where the men’s wrestling team competes as an affiliate. Adding a women’s team expands opportunities for Ambrosian student-athletes and allows St. Ambrose to further engage in conference-level competition and contribute to the rapid national and regional growth of the sport. “We designed our wrestling facility with this expansion in mind,” … more at … https://www.saubees.com/sports/wwrest/2025-26/releases/20250804g72d65

Mount St. Joseph to Add Women’s Wrestling as 22nd Athletic Team
CINCINNATI, Ohio – Mount St. Joseph University is announcing the addition of women’s wrestling to the Universities athletic programs. The team is slated to begin competition in the fall of 2026 and will increase the total number of athletic teams to 22 at The Mount.
Women’s wrestling is one of the fastest-growing sports among high schools across the country and specifically in the state of Ohio. The Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) sponsored their first state championship in 2024. According to the National Wrestling Coaches Association, the number of female high school wrestlers nationally has exploded 804 in 1994 to more than 50,000 in 2024.
At the collegiate level, women’s wrestling was listed as an “emerging sport” by the NCAA in 2020-21. Since that time the sport has seen tremendous growth at the collegiate level and became the NCAA’s 91st championship level sport in January of 2025.
The MSJ women’s wrestling program will become the NCAA’s 58th Division III team. It will be the seventh D-III program in the state of Ohio and the first south of Westerville. … more at … https://msjlions.com/news/2025/8/5/general-mount-st-joseph-to-add-womens-wrestling-as-22nd-athletic-team.aspx
USA Wrestling Coach’s Corner: Scott Honecker (Mass./Conn.)
TDR Editor’s Note; Coach Honecker was a head coach at Greenville J.H. Rose before moving on to New England and the college coaching ranks.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
By Tristan Warner
Saying ‘yes’ to opportunities has been the story of Scott Honecker’s life. It is also his best advice for coaches, and even the many student-athletes he mentors on a yearly basis.
Head coach at Williams College in Williamstown, Mass. since the 2012-13 season, he also serves as the national team director for Connecticut USA Wrestling. More recently, he has picked up steam in the Greco-Roman coaching scene, as Honecker will lead Team USA at the 2025 U20 World Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria in August.
He has taken a winding path, at least geographically, to get where he is now, but for Honecker, taking advantage of opportunities, no matter where they take him, has been the recipe. “My competitive career concluded, and I wanted to continue in wrestling,” explained Honecker. “It wasn’t realistic for me to be decorated on the Senior level, so I started coaching because I really was mostly motivated to stay with the sport. “I have been able to make a life and a career in this sport without having the competitive accolades of many of my peer coaches. If you are passionate about wrestling and helping young people, it doesn’t matter if you had a medal around your neck.”
Fresh out of Ithaca College, Honecker’s first coaching gig took him to the Tar Heel State, where he served as varsity coach at J.H. Rose High School in Greenville, N.C. in 2005. He spent six years at the helm of the Rampants, at a time when wrestling in the state of North Carolina was still in an emerging status. “North Carolina was sort of coming out of the dark,” Honecker recalled. “Super 32 had just started on two mats. The best thing about being a high school coach in North Carolina as a 22-year-old was that, through USA Wrestling, there was a lot of opportunity. I was able to break into roles that, if I was in a more established state, would have taken me longer to earn my way into.”
This is when Honecker got involved with coaching the national teams. He was named North Carolina State Coach of the Year in 2009 by USA Wrestling. “When I was ready to transition to a full-time coaching role, doing things in Fargo helped make me a more realistic candidate.”

Big Ten Wrestling Championships Headed to Penn State
The Nittany Lions will host the 2026 Big Ten Wrestling Championships at the Bryce Jordan Center.
Penn State will entertain the best of Big Ten wrestling in 2026. The Big Ten Wrestling Championships return to Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center for the first time since 2022. The tournament is scheduled for March 7-8, 2026.
Penn State is pursuing its fourth straight team title, and 10th under head coach Cael Sanderson, at the Big Ten Wrestling Championships. The Nittany Lions crowned five individual winners at last season’s Big Ten tournament.
Interestingly, Sanderson has never won a Big Ten tournament title in his home building. Penn State last hosted the Big Ten Wrestling Championships in 2022 and ’21. The Nittany Lions finished second to Michigan in 2022 and second to Iowa in 2021. Before that, Penn State previously hosted the event in 2009, when it finished seventh.

The Nittany Lions will chase their fifth straight NCAA team title with another stacked roster. The Nittany Lions return two national champions (Mitchell Mesenbrink in 2025, Levi Haines in 2024) and five All-Americans who placed fifth or better at their weight classes last season. In addition, Penn State signed former NCAA runner-up Rocco Welsh from Ohio State and 2024 world freestyle champion Masanosuke Ono to its roster.
According to FloWrestling’s latest college rankings, five Nittany Lions rank among the top-20 nationally pound-for-pound, with Mesenbrink staking he No. 1 spot overall. Haines is third, followed by Tyler Kasak at No. 12, Shayne Van Ness at No. 14 and Josh Barr at No. 18.
Penn State also two of the top freshmen in college wrestling with Marcus Blaze and PJ Duke, who will be busy on the world stage before the season. Duke is scheduled to compete at three world championships, including Senior Worlds in Croatia in September. In addition, 70 percent of the U.S. men’s freestyle team competing at the U23 World Championships wrestle for Penn State.

Roulo posted five consecutive winning seasons at the helm of Averett’s mat program. He racked up 96 career dual meet wins, including 21 over NCAA Division II schools and two over Division I schools.

DI Board of Directors formally adopts changes to roster limits
The Division I Board of Directors on Monday adopted additional changes to NCAA rules to implement the court-approved House settlement. The changes — which codify roster limits, including legislated exceptions for current student-athletes whose roster spots would have been impacted by those limits — are effective July 1.
“With the court’s approval of the House settlement, college sports are entering a new era of increased benefits for college athletes,” said Tim Sands, chair of the board and president at Virginia Tech. “Today’s vote to codify the roster provisions of the settlement formally removes limits on scholarships for schools that opt in, dramatically increasing the potential available scholarships for student-athletes across all sports in Division I.”
Moving forward, NCAA rules for Division I programs will no longer include sport-specific scholarship limits. Instead, schools in the defendant conferences and others that opt in to the settlement rules and associated benefits to student-athletes will have roster limits, and schools will have the option to offer scholarships to any and all of those student-athletes. This change will dramatically increase the number of scholarships potentially available to Division I student-athletes, including more than doubling the possible number of scholarships that can be offered to women. NCAA schools have a deadline of June 30 to indicate whether they intend to opt into the settlement for the 2025-26 academic year.
The rules changes include legislated exceptions for current student-athletes with remaining eligibility whose roster spots would have been impacted by immediate implementation of the roster limits. Those designated student-athletes will be identified by their current or former schools, and regardless of the school for which they participate, they will not count toward that school’s roster limits for the duration of their eligibility.
The division’s core guarantees — which include scholarship protections — are not impacted by the rules changes.

New wrestling books out for fans, history buffs
There are several books that have recently come out that many fans will find intriguing, and for a variety of reasons. What I like most is that all have strong historical impact.
Pat Kelly, a WIN contributor for several years, has produced a terrific book entitled “K-State’s Wrestling Legacy,” with the subtitle “Stories, Stats and Personalities That Shaped the Sport in Kansas and Beyond.” Pat brings an extensive pedigree to his work, having been a two-time Iowa high school state champion, a two-time Division II All-American at Nebraska-Omaha, and built a long high school coaching career in Kansas.
WIN contributor Pat Kelly
The book is loaded with fascinating stories from an important area of wrestling’s past that has been largely forgotten. “For over 50 years, Kansas State University offered a wrestling program that became the state’s flagship at the collegiate level,” reads the back cover. “However, K-State wrestling has now been dormant for half a century. ‘K-State’s Wrestling Legacy’ gives readers a comprehensive look at the program’s history and connects it to the sport’s growth in the Sunflower State and its national influence.” Many important figures from the past parade through the pages, in particular Ed Gallagher, Myron Roderick and Fred Fozzard, all who became legends at Oklahoma State. Gallagher was born in Perth, Kansas, and graduated from high school there before moving on to Oklahoma State and leading the Aggies to 11 NCAA team championships in the 1920s-1930s era.
Roderick is a native of Wellington, Kansas, who won three NCAA titles as a wrestler at OSU and coached the team to seven NCAA team titles in the 1950s and ‘60s.
I saw Fred Fozzard wrestle during his glory years at Oklahoma State and had great respect for his aggressive style on the mat. He was NCAA champion at 177 pounds in 1967 and placed second and third, as well. In 1969, he and fellow Oregonian Rick Sanders became America’s first world champions ever. Fozzard was K-State’s last head wrestling coach, … more at … https://www.win-magazine.com/2025/06/24/several-must-read-books-for-wrestling-fans-history-buffs/
Nebraska’s Mark Manning named WIN’s Mike Chapman Impact Award recipient
By Tristan Warner
hen Mark Manning was asked how it felt to be the recipient of WIN’s 2025 Mike Chapman Impact Award, his instinctive reaction was to immediately begin deflecting all credit and attributing his program’s success to everyone other than himself. “It is really nice recognition for my staff, the team, just all the guys that make it happen,” Manning said. “Even though I am the recipient, I feel really blessed and thankful for all the people that invest in our program.
“It starts with the commitment that our guys have to being their very best. I have a great staff around me. (Bryan) Snyder, Tervel (Dlagnev), James (Green), our trainer, our strength coach; it is such a united group.”
In addition to earning his 200th dual-meet victory, Manning’s 2024-25 Huskers claimed a second-place finish at the NCAA Championships after accumulating 117 team points, eight All-Americans and two national champions in Ridge Lovett and Antrell Taylor. Brock Hardy also reached the finals, giving the Huskers three back-to-back-to-back NCAA finalists. The historic finish gave Nebraska two NCAA champions for the first time since 1984, when Jim and Bill Scherr won consecutive titles at 177 and 190, respectively.
As a result, Manning was named the 2025 NWCA NCAA Tournament Coach of the Year. Nebraska also put together an 11-3 dual meet record with a 6-2 mark in Big Ten action this season, which solidified them as a Top-5 program in WIN’s final Top-20 Dual-Team Rankings.
Notably, of the Huskers’ eight AAs, all but one outperformed his seed, with No. 17 Jacob Van Dee, No. 12 Christopher Minto, another No. 12 in Silas Allred, and No. 20 Camden McDanel all landing on the podium.
But as high achieving as Manning’s squad has been on the mats, his impact is more far-reaching for everyone involved in the Husker wrestling program while also sending ripples throughout the collegiate wrestling landscape.
Awarded annually since 1995, in 2008, WIN started to name its Impact Award after WIN founder Mike Chapman, who actually shared the award in 1999 with his wife Bev. Mike has written over 500 columns on wrestling and several books on the sport. “In his long career, Mark has earned many accolades as a competitor, coach and leader, at all levels, and we are delighted to add his name to the long list of Impact winners,” Chapman commented. “This past season marks the high point of a tremendous coaching career and showed the entire wrestling community what dedication and determination are all about.”
Manning always makes it a point of emphasis to take wrestling-related questions and scale his answers to address facets of life that transcend the sport. “Our top goal is to create a high-character person,” Manning said. “We do a lot of investing in developing our student-athletes and our wrestlers from their character standpoint. Your word is important. How you approach your work is important. If you want to max out as a person, you have to develop physically, mentally and spiritually.
“We equip them with a elite-level mindset and an approach to how you treat people. Our team is very respectful to our opponents, they know how to handle themselves and represent the University of Nebraska in a first-class manner. They want to imitate greatness.”
In a new era of NIL deals and seemingly never-ending transfer portal movers and shakers, it is worth noting that just one of Nebraska’s 10 starters from the 2024-25 season, All-American Caleb Smith, did not begin his career in Lincoln (App State).
The loyalty and buy-in from Nebraska’s student-athletes are evident, and Manning believes it starts with the recruiting process that promises to deliver a life-long investment. “We have developed a reputation that we are going to do things the right way,” Manning said. “It is a lifetime commitment. It is not us trying to convince the right kids to come here; it is them choosing us because they know they can do it here. We attract people who want that next level experience.
With the Nebraska Wrestling Training Center already famous for producing the likes of seven-time World and Olympic champion Jordan Burroughs … more at … https://www.win-magazine.com/2025/05/31/nebraskas-mark-manning-named-wins-mike-chapman-impact-award-recipient/
Northern Iowa’s Doug Schwab named WIN’s Dan Gable Coach of the Year
By Tristan Warner
Since 1997, WIN has annually named its Coach of the Year by Dan Gable.
Gable is arguably the greatest coach the sport has ever produced. As a wrestler, the native of Waterloo compiled a 118-1 record and won two NCAA titles (1969 and 1970) before capturing the 1972 Olympic gold medal in freestyle. As a coach, he led the Iowa program for 21 years (1977-97) and produced 15 team championship, 45 individual titlists and 144 All-Americans.
The 2025 Dan Gable Coach of the Year is Northern Iowa’s Doug Schwab, who is making his mark and impacting the lives of student-athletes in Cedar Falls, just eight miles down the road from Gable’s hometown. “Obviously it is a great honor,” Schwab stated. “I appreciate the recognition. I got to be coached by Gable and an award named after him is pretty cool. I am pretty proud of that.
“People have to understand it is beyond you as the head coach. It is the whole staff. I have a high level of responsibility in being the guy leading the charge, but it doesn’t happen without the assistants and the support staff following up behind you and doing so much of the work.”
The 2024-25 season was a historic one for Schwab’s program, as the Panthers’ ninth-place finish at the 2025 NCAA DI Championships in Philadelphia was the highest since 1962. Parker Keckeisen also became the first-ever five-time All-American in UNI history, registering a runner-up finish at 184 pounds.
Named the 2025 NWCA National Coach of the Year, Schwab’s UNI squad was just one of four schools (Penn State, Cornell and Ohio State) to qualify all 10 wrestlers for the national tournament, a feat which had not occurred at UNI since 1986. Northern Iowa’s other All-American, Cael Happel, registered a fifth-place finish at 141 pounds, the highest finish for a Panther at the weight class since Dylan Long reached the finals in 2003.
The Big 12 runner-up Panthers, who were narrowly edged by Oklahoma State in the tournament’s final match, secured the program’s best Big 12 finish with three conference champions and 149.5 team points. The Panthers’ dual-meet season was equally impressive, as the squad posted a 14-1 record with a 7-1 mark in Big 12 action, only falling to Oklahoma State, 22-14. UNI defeated national contender Nebraska, ranked fourth at the time, 24-9, on Jan. 5 and toppled storied Big 12-rival Iowa State, ranked No. 14 at the time, … more at … https://www.win-magazine.com/2025/05/30/northern-iowas-doug-schwab-named-wins-dan-gable-coach-of-the-year/
