2025-26 Lineup

[Newguyhere]

Maybe, but Ross has a huge arc of development in my opinion. He can still put on a lot of size to his frame. He also doesn’t have near the partners his size at sebolt that mirasola had at AWA in high school. And I’m pretty sure the brothers moved to happy valley right away in the spring so they’ve been there nearly a year now. All that to say I still don’t think mirasola is a lock to AA next year

Agree he's not an AA currently

 

[Newguyhere]

Mirasola probably weighed what, 220 soaking wet? I’d pick him against Luffman next season.

We will probably see it next year

And luffman is a ways from a title contender. My point was that it seems like Penn state has a title contender at the upper weights, all of them, nearly every year. Off memory who was their last one who wasn’t? Would be surprising to see Cael sit idle

7-8 years ago with Nevills at HWT he got 7th. Years ago Jan Johnson was the HWT and only won 1 match maybe 2016

Without adding any new transfers and not knowing about Ortega’s eligibility I’d say the lineup could look something like this….

125 Castillo FR - U17 World Silver
133 E Frost JR - All American
141 J Frost JR - All American
149 Echemendia SR - All American
157 Johnson JR - 2x NCAA Qualifier
165 Euton/Riggins JR - NCAA Qualifier
174 Gaitan JR - 2x NCAA Qualifier
184 Dean SR - NCAA Qualifier
197 Elam SR - 4x All American
285 Bastida SR - All American

184 Dean SR - NCAA Qualifier
197 Elam SR - 4x All American
285 Bastida SR - All American

I think this is close but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Ech and J Frost switch wts.

being a glass half full guy
possible 5-6* AA in order
197
285
149
133
141
125*

 

[crooksie_26]

I think our 2026 recruiting class will need to be really good, as we will need to reload or get some portal guys to fill holes.

You're forgetting 174

 

[CyCity]

This isn’t ISU related but look how insane this Iowa fan thinks the rankings will be lol

Delusional haha.

 

[CyCity]

Don't believe it's been said by him publicly but it's definitely on the table. It would allow PK and Gabe to wrestle the weights they should be at and give him a better opportunity at a title

Arnold isn’t good enough to shift people around to get him in the lineup.

 

[Wieds789]

Gross beats desanto 6-3

 

[Wieds789]

Jax Forrest techs nahshon Garrett 10-0

 

[JM4CY]

Delusional haha.

And not surprising.

 

[Wieds789]

Carr techs Ed Scott 11-0 in a 1:48

Just figured out I have been posting in the wrong thread these last couple of times

I would like Jax Forrest and David Carr in our 2025/2026 lineup

That lineup probably puts us around the top 5, but no higher. Generally I think that some are underrated while others are overrated. Probably about evens out.

How did they decide our lineup from 33-57? Genuinely asking…is this the “highest rated” option it gave us and therefore what was sent out. Just curious if say Ech woild be rated higher individually at 41 compared to 49 but this was the highest “team” total that could be achieved so therefore this lineup “wins”
