2026 NCAA Wrestling Selection Show

125 - Spartley with the 5 seed. Potential to meet Robinson in Round 2 and Seymour (Lehigh) in the QF.

This is absolutely unbelievable. Really the only guy I have no confidence Troy can beat. I'd rather him wrestle literally anyone else. Unreal.

The Ventresca loss really hurt but if he is at peak for NCAA he can do it.

Ugh you are right. The killer loss was the last second loss to Peterson at National Duals when he had the match won and didn't need to engage at all. ALL of his losses are by one point! And he has to face the returning national champ in the second round?!?? That is absolute BS!!!

This sucks so bad because of course I thought with Robinson's struggles he'd get beat out and Troy wouldn't have to face him. I'd be confident in against any other opponent. This tournament comes down to matchups. Troy can beat all of the guys that beat Robinson. Crazy.

I can't argue with the seeds. Won some, lost some but with the exception of Troy I believe not bad.

Dean Peterson loss probably didn't help. And I imagine coaches had Bouzakis higher and he has a higher winning %

Coaches ranking, higher winning percentage vs Conference champ

12 is too low for VRob.

12 is too low for VRob.

Definitely

I would hate to be Lillendahl and get Jett Strickenberger in the second round. Jett is dangerous for such a low seed.
