Allocations = NCAA qualifiers

125 - 2 allocations

• #9 Maximo Renteria, Oregon State, SR, 18-2
• #20 Koda Holeman, Cal Poly, JR, 17-5
• Richard Castro-Sandoval, CSU-Bakersfield, SR 8-6
• Tyson Roach, Little Rock, RSFR, 5-12

Maximo Renteria will be looking to defend his Pac-12 title. After splitting matches with Cal Poly’s Koda Holeman last season, he beat him 13-6 in the dual this year. Holeman was pinned by Richard Castro-Sandoval in the true 2nd qualification at conferences last season, but defeated him by major decision in the Mustang’s 2nd dual of the season back in November.

133 - 1 allocation

• Gabe Whisenhunt, Oregon State, JR 6-7
• Robert Jones, CSU Bakersfield, FR 8-11
• Dillon Cooper, Little Rock, RSFR 3-11
• Anthony Lucio, Cal Poly, RSFR 1-7

Gabe Whisenhunt is the favorite at 133 lbs, but hasn’t pulled away from the field far enough to be a sure bet as the lone qualifier. While still losing the match 10-5, Robert Jones was able to put a good ride on Whisenhunt and get a takedown in the 3rd. 

141 - 1 allocation

• #23 Nash Singleton, Oregon State, JR, 11-7
• Brennan Van Hoecke, Little Rock, SR, 7-9
• Santino Sanchez, CSU Bakersfield, JR, 9-9
• Leo Macias, Cal Poly, FR, 5-4

Nash Singleton is poised to make his second trip to the National Tournament. The Oregon State junior hasn’t lost to a Pac-12 opponent since his freshman year.

149 - 2 allocations

• #18 Brock Herman, Little Rock, SO, 10-3
• #24 Noah Tolentino, Oregon State, JR, 13-9
• Andre Gonzales, Cal Poly, SR, 13-10
• Hayden Zinkin, CSU Bakersfield, SO, 4-12

We’re going to have quite the battle to qualify at 149 lbs! Don’t be surprised if we see a true 2nd place bout here. Both Brock Herman and Andre Gonzales transferred out of Ohio State this past offseason and made immediate impacts at their respective programs. Herman went undefeated against the Pac-12 field this year with bonus point wins over Tolentino and Zinkin, but just a 9-6 victory over former teammate Gonzales. Gonzales split with Tolentino, losing at the Roadrunner Open and CKLV, but winning 4-2 at the dual.

157 - 1 allocation

• #30 Jaivon Jones, Little Rock, SR, 16-8
• CJ Hamblin, Oregon State, JR, 16-10
• Jagger French, Cal Poly, RSFR, 10-6
• Devyn Flores-Che, CSU Bakersfield, JR, 5-14

A seventh-year senior, Jaivon Jones will be looking to qualify for the national tournament for the first time. He’ll likely get the #1 seed, but he did sit out the dual against CJ Hamblin and Oregon State. Hamblin was a national qualifier for the Beavers last year, taking second at the this weight.

165 - 1 allocation

• #5 Matty Bianchi, Little Rock, SR, 17-1
• #23 Matthew Olguin, Oregon State, RSSR, 15-5
• Anthony Berg, Cal Poly, RSFR, 9-8
• Evan Manzo, CSU Bakersfield, RSFR, 3-9

This is a tough weight to receive only two allocations. #5 in the country, Matty Bianchi was an All-American last year, finishing 7th at 157 lbs. Matthew Olguin is a 7th-year senior trying to make it back to the national tournament. After qualifying as a freshman and sophomore, Olguin’s past two seasons have been marred by injury. Bianchi won their match in the dual this season 4-1.

174 - 1 allocation

• #29 Daschle Lamer, Oregon State, SO, 15-3
• Cash Stewart, Cal Poly, JR, 10-13
• Guillermo Escobedo, CSU Bakersfield, SR, 7-8
• Gunner Holland, Little Rock, RSFR, 4-8

After spending the first two years of his career at Cal Poly, Daschle Lamer will be representing Oregon State at the Pac-12 tournament this year and is the favorite to fill the allocation. His closest match against the Pac-12 field this year was a 2-0 win over Guillermo Escobedo, who does a great job of keeping it close with a lot of wrestlers.

184 - 1 allocation

• #27 Ceasar Garza, Cal Poly, JR, 14-2
• TJ McDonnell, Oregon State, SO, 11-8
• Kodiak Cannedy, Little Rock, JR, 4-7
• Jeremy Manibog, CSU Bakersfield, SO, 0-9

At 14-2, Ceasar Garza has been having a great year. However, his two wins over TJ McDonnell have come by a combined 4 points. The first, at the Roadrunner Open, was an 8-6 victory, and the second, in the dual, was a 5-3 tiebreakers win.

197 - 2 allocations

• #4 Stephen Little, Little Rock, JR, 13-2
• #9 Justin Rademacher, Oregon State, RSSO, 20-2
• Cole Jackson, Cal Poly, JR, 7-10
• Chris Neal, CSU-Bakersfield, SO 0-14

The expected 197 lb final - Stephen Little vs Justin Rademacher - will be the most anticipated match of the entire tournament. Little dominated the series two seasons ago when Rademacher was a true freshman, but with Rademacher redshirting last season and Little wrestling a limited schedule this season, they haven’t met since Pac-12s 2024. Since then, Rademacher has shown a lot of improvement, including winning a U20 World title this past offseason.

285 - 1 allocation

• #22 Trevor Tinker, Cal Poly, SR, 9-4
• #30 Michael Gasper, Little Rock, SR, 10-6
• Khale McDonnell, FR, 2-8
• Mason Cover, CSU Bakersfield, SO 3-13

Trevor Tinker is the big (no pun intended) question at heavyweight. A 3X national qualifier, he’s the on-paper favorite. However, he was forced to injury default out of the Midlands in December and hasn’t competed since. If Tinker is out, Gasper is the favorite to fill the allocation as he defeated both McDonnell and Cover this year.
