Wrestling Rules Committee meets this week

By

-

April 12, 2021

The NCAA Wrestling Rules Committee is set to meet April 12-14 via video conference. The wrestling rule book is updated every other year, and the upcoming season is a rule book year. This means that there is the possibility, but no guarantee, of significant changes for the 2021-2022 season. Major changes in recent rule books include neutral danger, out of bounds stalling, and the five second drop down rule. The most recent rule book that was in effect for the 2019-2021 seasons did not make major changes compared to those that preceded it. Here is a list of the changes from the last rule book revision.

Coaches and administrators have the ability to submit rule change proposals, and the rules committee sends out annual surveys to coaches, conference commissioners, and officials regarding both the application of previous rule changes and potential new rules for upcoming season. Here are the results of the 2019-2020 survey. The survey this year was structured differently and asked respondents whether they would be for or against 18 possible rule changes. Some examples included making takedowns worth three points, shortening the match from seven to six minutes, and adding a step out point in neutral if a wrestler goes out of bounds with both feet.

There is no guarantee that any of the changes in the survey will go into effect, and even if the committee recommends changes, the Playing Rules Oversight Panel (PROP) has final say on whether or not changes go into effect. Usually, PROP rubber-stamps the committee’s changes, but several years ago, the rules committee proposed making headgear optional, and that rule did not make it into the final rule book.

There should be a press release in the next few weeks with the proposals put forth by the committee, and then later in June, PROP will meet to give final approval.

Wrestling Rules Committee
Composition: Nine members. Four members shall be from Division I, two members shall be from Division II, two members shall be from Division III and an additional member shall be a secretary-rules editor. Chuck Barbee is the secretary-rules editor for wrestling.

The Leadership Group felt that those who could not participate in the Coralville event should be given an opportunity to compete in a season-ending tournament, and the Pocono championship event was created. With the help of NUWAY, the event will provide an additional opportunity for deserving DIII wrestlers.

After five years leading his alma mater, Mount Union head coach Josh Malave has accepted the head coach position at nearby Case Western Reserve University. Malave coached the Purple Raiders to a pair of top ten NCAA finishes and was named Ohio Athletic Coach of the year in 2020. He coached a pair of NCAA champions in Jairod and Jordin James, six NCAA All-Americans, and five NWCA All-Americans (2020). He was a 2x NCAA qualifier for Mount Union and a 2012 All-American when he finished 7th at 141 lbs. Malave takes over for Danny Song who resigned after six seasons. He inherits a team that did not compete this season but will be back in action for 2021-22.

CWRU Names Josh Malave Head Wrestling Coach

Case Western Reserve University James C. Wyant Director of Athletics Amy Backus announced the hiring of Josh Malave as the Head Coach of the Spartans’ wrestling program.

“I am extremely grateful to Amy Backus and [Vice President for Student Affairs] Lou Stark for the opportunity to lead this storied program,” said Malave. “Additionally, I would like to thank the search committee and the entire CWRU team that took the time to meet with me. I would like to thank my wife, Jillian, for her support through this process and throughout my career. We are looking forward to building lifelong relationships at Case Western Reserve and becoming a part of the Spartan Family.”

All times listed are Eastern
The Olympic Trials will be broadcast on a variety of platforms this Friday and Saturday, and keeping track of what is shown where can be a challenge. Wrestling will either be shown on Peacock, NBC’s subscription streaming service, or NBC Sports Network with simultaneous coverage on NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports App.

The Challenge Tournament finals and the Championships finals (mat 2 for each) will be on NBC Sports, NBCSports.com, and the NBC Sports App. Everything else will be on Peacock. Watching the NBC Sports content online or on the app will likely require a television package that includes NBC Sports Network.

Peacock is a subscription streaming service from NBC. While you can sign up for a free account to watch some Peacock content and see the upcoming schedule, the wrestling will be on Peacock Premium. You can see the upcoming wrestling on the Peacock website by clicking Sports, then Live & Upcoming. Peacock Premium has two tiers of service.

If you want to watch The Office or any of the 456 episodes of the original Law & Order, you can continue beyond the trial. If wrestling is all you want, the seven day trial should suffice.

The Last Chance Qualifier took place this past weekend at Texas Wesleyan University in Fort Worth. The top two finishers in each of the three Olympic wrestling styles qualified to compete this Friday and Saturday in the 2021 Olympic Trials at Dickie’s Arena, also in Forth Worth. A group of former DIII wrestlers participated in both Greco-Roman and Freestyle.

In Greco-Roman, Ryan Epps (77kg, Augsburg), Guy Patron (97kg, Loras), and Tom Foote (130kg, Williams) all finished in the top six. Each bowed out in the consolation semis, and the tournament only wrestled to four places. Eddie Smith (77kg, Loras), fell one round earlier to secure a top eight finish.

67kg – Jaylen York, University of the Ozarks – 0-2
77kg – Eddie Smith, Loras – 2-2, top 8
77kg – Ryan Epps, Augsburg – 2-2, top 6
97kg – Guy Patron, Loras – 1-2, top 6
130kg – Tom Foote, Williams – 3-2, top 6
130kg – Jerhett Lee, University of the Ozarks – 1-2

A slightly larger group competed on Saturday in Freestyle, and and a few guys competed in both tournaments. Current UW-Eau Claire assistant Elroy Perkin was the top DIII wrestler, picking up four wins in the consolation bracket. He defeated 2010 NCAA Division I runner-up Dan Vallimont and 2x Division I All-American Joshua Shields along the way.

57kg – Michael Tortorice, UW-Whitewater – 1-2
57kg – Nathaniel Rankin, University of the Ozarks – 1-2
65kg – Devin Tortorice, UW-Whitewater – 0-2
74kg – Elroy Perkin, UW-Whitewater – 4-2, top 8
74kg – Yo Akiyama, Williams – 0-2
86kg – Jaison White, Ithaca – 0-2
86kg – Ryan Epps, Augsburg – 1-2
125kg – Jerhett Lee, University of the Ozarks – 1-2

Finals Results and Video

There are four former DIII wrestlers qualified for the Olympic Trials this week. All are in Greco-Roman. Leslie (Mike) Fuenffinger (Augsburg) is qualified at 60kg due to his win at the 2019 US Senior Nationals. Joe Rau (Elmhurst) qualified 87kg for the US at the Olympics and will await the champion of the challenge tournament for a best-of-3 series to determine the Olympic rep. In 2016, Rau won the trials, but the US did not qualify his weight. At 97kg, Eric Twohey (UW-La Crosse) qualified with his third place finish at the 2019 senior nationals, while Donny Longendyke (Augsburg) grabbed the fifth and final spot at 130kg at the same event.

Schreiner to move wrestling team to DIII

March 25, 2021

Schreiner University in Kerrville, Texas, will be moving its NCWA men’s wrestling team into Division III competition for the 2021-2022 season. The women’s team will also be a Division III program as women’s wrestling transitions from Emerging to Championship sport status in the NCAA over the next few years. Schreiner added wrestling for the 2018-2019 season and the men’s team has competed in the NCWA Championships. The women have recently competed in the NCWA, WCWA, and National Collegiate Championships.

The school first announced plans to start wrestling in the fall of 2017, and where they would compete was an immediate question. Schreiner is the only school in their conference with a wrestling team, and the nearest DIII programs are quite far away. University of the Ozarks is 614 miles away and all other schools are 800 miles or more from Kerrville. The team has competed against NCWA schools and non-DIII schools primarily in Texas and Oklahoma, with occasional trips further afield. They will likely adjust their schedule to get some more DIII competition before heading to a to-be-determined regional.

The announcement said that Schreiner will be the first NCAA wrestling team in Texas, but that is not entirely accurate. Schreiner will be the only current NCAA team in Texas, but ten other NCAA schools in the state have previously competed in wrestling, including current DIII schools Southwestern and LeTourneau (according to the Mat Talk Online Dropped College Wrestling Teams database)

Espinoza qualified last year and beat Wilson twice, though Wilson turned the tables on him this year at the MIAA.

Reeves has wins over Wriedt, Brandon, and Zook, and his only loss this year is to a wrestler not entered. Along with his win over Espinoza, Wilson defeated Kim this season. Bergen is the CCIW champ whose only loss this year was an injury default early on.
