There were five men’s freestyle matches and four women’s freestyle matches contested, with three women’s freestyle berths determined by forfeit. These matches determined the No. 3 spot on the national team, which provides financial support in terms of a stipend, plus training and competition opportunities.

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. If a student-athlete receiving athletics aid loses a roster spot for roster management, … more at … https://www.ncaa.org/news/2025/6/23/media-center-di-board-of-directors-formally-adopts-changes-to-roster-limits.aspx

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/

T.J. Jaworsky Looks Back At His Storied Career

he three-time NCAA champ will receive a big honor this weekend.
By: Steve Kirschner
Note: T.J. Jaworsky will be inducted into the North Carolina Chapter of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame on Sunday May 18.
A three-time NCAA champion in perhaps the most physically grueling individual sport there is. Most Outstanding Wrestler in the NCAA Tournament. National Wrestler of the Year. Undefeated senior season.
Given that lofty list of accomplishments, it is undeniably fair to include T.J. Jaworsky, even 30 years after his final collegiate match, as one of the finest to ever compete in any sport at the University of North Carolina.
The state of Oklahoma doesn’t have much of a pipeline to the Tar Heel State and Carolina athletics, but legendary former wrestling coach Bill Lam, basketball standouts Steve Hale and Brady Manek, two-time national champion assistant basketball coach Joe Holladay and Jaworsky, one of the most successful college wrestlers ever, have made the connection rich in history.
Jaworsky began wrestling at age 5 in Enid, moved to Edmond in the sixth grade, won four state high school titles and eventually competed for two years (one as a red-shirt) at Oklahoma State, one of the sport’s historic programs. But Jaworsky needed a change after suffering an upset loss in the 1992 NCAA Tournament and looked east to find a program where he could fulfill his dream of becoming a multi-time national champion.
“I called NC State but Coach (Bob) Guzzo said he had the ACC champion at my weight coming back, Duke said I was too much of a wrestler for them, and everyone in Oklahoma knows about Coach Lam, so Carolina was a great situation for me,” says Jaworsky, who lives in California now, where he co-owns a stone quarry with his step-father.
“In Oklahoma, wrestling is like basketball is in North Carolina. It’s a big sport. Coach Lam’s reputation followed him to UNC, he had a good recruiting class and I had weekly and monthly goals to win championships. He thought those were lofty goals, and I said, ‘Exactly, that’s what I want to do.'”
Jaworsky not only met those goals, but he also likely exceeded them, winning three ACC championships, earning two ACC Tournament MVPs and a spot on the ACC’s 50th Anniversary team, leading Carolina to a pair of top-10 finishes in the NCAA Championships (sixth in 1994 and eighth in 1995) and winning 110 of 115 matches as a Tar Heel.
Three decades later, Jaworsky remains Carolina’s all-time leader in career winning percentage (.957) and wins by fall (50), single-season pins (24) and the single-season record for most wins in a perfect season (38-0-0 in 1994-95).
For those achievements and others, Jaworsky is being inducted in the North Carolina chapter of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. “T.J. had the three characteristics of what it takes to be a champion – heart, talent and work ethic, with heart being the most important,” says Lam. “T.J. had the most unbelievably competitive heart, … more at … https://goheels.com/news/2025/5/16/wrestling-t-j-jaworsky-looks-back-at-his-storied-career

From high school to NCAA, it’s not always by the book

This is one of the columns I’ve had the most fun writing every year. The NCAA Championships are the measuring stick for every college wrestler in America. Everybody remembers what happened those three heart-stopping days in March – words that never rang true more than they did this year.
It’s also, in a sense, an evaluation of how well I do my job. After all, the rankings I do every issue during the season for WIN are more than just the pecking order for the nation’s best high school wrestlers. They also provide the basis for a lot of speculation – by college coaches and by fans – of who we’re most likely to see on the awards stand at future NCAA tournaments. They’re my take on whom you’ll see becoming the champions and All-Americans of the future. And that’s why this brief look back is always so interesting – in a sense, it’s my personal report card. I hope it’s as interesting for all of you.
As we’ve seen over the years, nothing is absolute. The No. 1 wrestler in high school, it stands to reason, is going to be No. 1 in college as well…right? If the tournament everybody in the rankings is shooting for – the NCAA Championships, held most recently at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia this month – is any indication, not necessarily.
While wrestlers ranked No. 1 more than held their own, the 80 All-Americans, including the wrestlers who competed in the championship final matches, ran the gamut in rankings position when they finished their high school careers.
Only three of the 10 champions, led by the first-ever five-time champion, Carter Starocci (184) of Penn State, finished their prep careers with the No. 1 ranking at their weight class. The others were Lucas Byrd (133) of Illinois and two-time champion Jesse Mendez (141) of Ohio State.
Both of Nebraska’s champions, Ridge Lovett (149) and Antrell Taylor (157), finished their prep careers in the No. 12 spot – a ranking almost unheard of for a champion in recent years. Wyatt Hendrickson of Oklahoma State, whose stunning upset of two-time champion Gable Steveson of Minnesota was one of the tournament’s all-time moments, also finished his prep career outside the Top 5 – he was No. 6. … more at … https://www.win-magazine.com/2025/04/18/from-high-school-to-ncaa-its-not-always-by-the-book/

Ramstad: This could be the week the NCAA becomes a professional league

A judge is expected to approve an arrangement for Division I colleges to give 22% of athletic department revenue to student-athletes.
So much is going on with the president, investment markets, Minnesota’s Legislature and the Timberwolves’ playoff run, you can be forgiven if you haven‘t heard a monumental change is about to happen in college sports.
A federal judge this week is expected to ratify a legal settlement that will lead NCAA Division I universities to pay athletes from athletic department revenue. Four years after the Supreme Court said student-athletes could market themselves in name-image-likeness (NIL) deals, now they will get a cut of their teams’ overall revenue. “This is the last point that really solidifies [the NCAA] as a professional league,” said Patrick Campion, co-founder of Fame Sport, a new sports marketing firm in Minneapolis. He is a former marketing chief at Sleep Number and managed its NFL sponsorship for eight years.
The settlement inaugurates an enormous change for the athletes, universities and the business of sports in America. “We’re living through a transformation in college sports that rivals the creation of the NCAA itself,” said Chris Pham, a sports attorney at Fredrikson, a Minneapolis law firm. “Between NIL, athlete empowerment and revenue sharing, we’re seeing the traditional amateur model give way to this new economic reality.”
This step is happening because of a class action lawsuit brought against the NCAA in 2020 on behalf of former athletes who missed out on the chance to make NIL money. Before then, the NCAA prohibited athletes from any compensation beyond their college scholarship and room and board.
The settlement — often called the House settlement for Grant House, a former collegiate swimmer whose name leads the list of litigants in the suit — requires the NCAA to pay past athletes from a nearly $3 billion fund. It also requires Division I schools, like the University of Minnesota and University of St. Thomas, to make direct payments to athletes moving forward.
Athletics departments will have to share 22% of their revenue, or up to about $20 million a year. That will blow a hole in spending and force them to cut costs and perhaps some sports. … more at … https://www.startribune.com/ramstad-this-could-be-the-week-the-ncaa-becomes-a-professional-league/601335749

New Women’s Teams & Programs

Fighting Scots Announce the Addition of Women’s Wrestling
Edinboro, Pa. – PennWest Edinboro announced on Friday the additions of women’s wrestling and women’s golf to its varsity sports offerings with competition for both slated to begin in the 2025-26 academic year.  
Recruitment for both programs will begin immediately. Recruitment questionnaires are available for wrestling and golf, and both programs will compete at the Division II level.  
“The introduction of women’s wrestling and women’s golf at PennWest Edinboro represents an ongoing commitment to providing athletic opportunities for our students,” said PennWest President Dr. Jon Anderson. “We are excited to embrace the newest NCAA Championship sport in women’s wrestling and add the Fighting Scots to the rich tradition of women’s golf.”  
Women’s wrestling was announced as the NCAA’s 91st Championship Sport in January. There are currently 93 women’s wrestling programs across the country. The first NCAA Championship competition will be in 2026.  
“Edinboro has always had a rich wrestling tradition,” said Director of Athletics Dr. Katherine Robbins. “The addition of women’s wrestling continues to build on that legacy of excellence in the sport of wrestling and adds another chapter to the storied history of Fighting Scot wrestling.” … more at … https://gofightingscots.com/news/2025/4/11/general-fighting-scots-announce-the-addition-of-womens-wrestling.aspx

Pitt-Johnstown Announces Historic Addition of 3 New Sports to Boost Enrollments & Competitive Excellence
The University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown is pleased to announce the addition of three new sponsored NCAA Division II sports—Women’s Wrestling, Men’s Swimming, and Women’s Swimming—to strengthen the enrollment of the university and to add to the high level of competitive excellence of our Athletic Department.  
“We are thrilled by this historic addition of Women’s Wrestling and Men’s and Women’s Swimming to our athletic programs, which already includes several championship teams in our conference.  We are highly confident that these new sports will elevate an already outstanding athletic program, making Pitt-Johnstown an even more compelling destination for prospective students, thereby helping to increase our in-state and out-of-state enrollments,” stated Pitt-Johnstown President Jem Spectar.  
The addition of Women’s Wrestling to UPJ Athletics leverages and complements our historic legacy in Men’s Wrestling, providing a significant boost to our student recruitment efforts throughout the Commonwealth and beyond.  Women’s Wrestling has rapidly gained popularity across the country and especially in western Pennsylvania, with many local high schools and wrestling clubs fielding women’s wrestling teams and featuring talented student-athletes. Women’s Wrestling was recently approved as the 91st NCAA-sponsored National Championship and is slated to crown its first national champion in the 2025-26 season. Currently, more than 1,200 women wrestlers are competing at 76 NCAA schools across Division I, II, and III, with NCAA projections pointing to an additional 17 programs to be added in the coming years, which was a crucial factor in UPJ’s decision to add the sport as it continues to increase efforts to boost its lagging enrollment of female students. With the addition of Women’s Wrestling at Pitt-Johnstown, the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) will have five universities with Women’s Wrestling … more at … https://pittjohnstownathletics.com/news/2025/4/7/baseball-pitt-johnstown-announces-historic-addition-of-3-new-sports-to-boost-enrollments-competitive-excellence.aspx

Endowment for the pin: Launching women’s wrestling
Just a decade ago few envisioned a women’s wrestling team competing for the Rams. But as the sport exploded at high schools across the nation, our Strategic Planning Committee set it as a priority program.
Cornell became one of the first 29 Division III colleges to add women’s wrestling when we announced our launch on Dec. 1, 2021. The timing was perfect: today girls wrestling is the fastest-growing high school sport. Because we moved quickly, Cornell is in a good position to attract wrestlers who want to continue the sport in college. 
We couldn’t have made that choice without Cornell’s endowment.
Although a budget for the program did not exist, the flexibility of unrestricted endowment funds allowed Cornell to pivot and launch the program.  “We were able to move quickly and now we’re in a great position to recruit women wrestlers,” says Vice President for Enrollment Management Wendy Beckemeyer. “We’re at the leading edge of this exciting sport, offering women new athletic opportunities, and our enrollment is growing because of this program. It’s a win-win.”
Cornell’s young team landed two place-winners at the Rams’ first-ever women’s wrestling tournament—the Cliff Keen-Mike Duroe Invitational—in January. The team has a roster of 15 women in its second year of competition and shares facilities with the men’s team in the renovated and expanded Richard and Norma Small Athletic and Wellness Center—the SAW.
When Cornell announced the launch, then-Athletic Director Seth Wing called it “a giant step for the college as we continue to enhance the student-athlete experience” … more at … https://news.cornellcollege.edu/2025/Spring/Endowment-womens-wrestling.html

The 2025 NCAA Championships Were Overflowing with Storylines

I waited a couple of days to write this article. I wanted to write it when I got home from Philadelphia and the 2025 NCAA Championships, but I needed some time for perspective. Personally, I’m not a fan of labeling the match or tournament or upset we saw last night as the “Greatest Ever.” Ever is a long time and frankly, even though I’ve covered 17 of the last 19 NCAA Tournaments, I’ve missed much more than I’ve ever seen when it comes to the history of college wrestling. 
What that means is that it’s not hyperbole when I say the 2025 NCAA Championships had the best and greatest number of storylines surrounding the tournament of any that I’ve been associated with. 
Some were blatant and obvious – others you had to pay attention to notice. Quite frankly, there were so many that you might have missed one or seven. 
Let’s go through some of the main ones we knew before the tournament. 

  • Carter Starocci’s quest for five titles. He did it and became the first NCAA wrestler to achieve the feat and beat an undefeated returning champion in the process. 
  • Could Penn State break their own scoring record – established a year ago – along with matching Minnesota’s highwater mark of 10 All-Americans? Yes and yes to both. Then Nittany Lions were also the first team since 1992 to put their entire lineup in the NCAA quarterfinals. 
  • Can Iowa hold onto second place and what’s Jacori Teemer’s status? Teemer went 0-2 and Kyle Parco was injured in his second match and didn’t wrestle in the consolations. Aside from that, Iowa had an alright tournament – capped off by a win at 197 lbs from Stephen Buchanan. They finished fourth as a team.
