d3wrestle.com Rankings #2

The next few weeks are a pledge drive here at d3wrestle.com. If you have enjoyed following NCAA Division III wrestling during the decade-plus of this site’s existence, perhaps you would be willing to contribute to the d3wrestle.com Patreon campaign. Patreon allows supporters like you to make a small monthly pledge to show your appreciation for the content found here at d3wrestle.com. Pledges can be as small as $1, but pledges at $5 per month or more will get you a d3wrestle.com bumper sticker. Thank you for sticking with the site for all these years. There will be much more wrestling content to come.

Here is the second set of rankings for the 2017-2018 season. Freshmen and transfers were eligible to appear, and these rankings include results up through the weekend. There are a couple of points to consider with these. This is the last ranking that a wrestler can appear in without having competed. Next time, anyone who has not yet wrestled will be out. Also, this ranking gave some credit to last year’s results. In a few cases, a wrestler with NCAA experience stayed higher than might be expected given a loss or two. If their opponents continue to prove it, they will have the chance to rise. Finally, wrestlers are ranked at the weights at which they have actually competed. If a wrestler goes down or up, that will be reflected in future rankings.
