NCAA Rankings 2017-18
157: Mike D’Angelo Announces His Presence
Princeton’s Mike D’Angelo knocked off All-American BJ Clagon to climb into the rankings. However, Clagon doesn’t fall thanks to his win over #5 Alec Pantaleo in the first week of the season, which is a more notable win than any this season from the wrestlers ranked below him.
Mitch Finesilver moves ahead of Coleman Hammond thanks to a head-to-head win in Sunday’s dual meet.
Kennedy Monday beat John Van Brill, but the latter actually moves up thanks to further inspection of his season's record. Van Brill has a win over #10 Luke Zilverberg, which is more impressive than anything on Jake Short’s resume this season. Van Brill also has a head-to-head win over D’Angelo, so Van Brill moves to #17, D'Angelo enters the rankings just below him, and Short slides to #19.
