The decade before @TFlynn134, @TheCliffMoore, and @bigmeech141 arrived at WVU, the average NCAA finish of the program was 46th and they had two All-Americans. In their eight years, they’ve had 8 All-Americans and three straight top 25 finishes. Winners!

Replying to @hoagieboyhidlay
@hoagieboyhidlay is a national treasure. Trent was so happy for @Hidlaymania to get his first NCAA Champ. Hayden says “the man just loves LIVE wrestling” This family rocks.

Challenge bricks are becoming annoying. Make it like freestyle, you lose a challenge, you lose a point.

Pennsylvania will earn 8⃣ @NCAAWrestling All-Americans in 2026 #PAPOWER That's up two from 2025 (6), but down over 50% from 2021 (17).

Penn State has 164 points and have obviously locked up the title. The record of 177 points is well within striking distance for the Nittany Lions who have 6 finalists. Each win is 4 points, major is +1, TF is +1.5 and Pin is 2. So lots of combinations to get over 177, but 4 champs locks in a new record.

Crazy that just a few years ago, @Stanford almost dropped wrestling and now they have four All-Americans, an NCAA finalist, and are in 6th place at the NCAA tournament
