NCAA Rankings 2018-19
125 Sebastian Rivera
If you're reading this then there is little chance you have not heard about Nick Piccininni's pinfall of Spencer Lee. The second loss of the season drops Lee to #3 and moves Pich up to #2. Despite being undefeated, Pich does not move ahead of Rivera, due to Rivera have a better second-best win in Ronnie Bresser and a loss that came by way of 133's #1 Stevan Micic.
Bresser has half as many losses as Lee, but stays behind Lee in the rankings because Lee shares a best-win with Bresser in Sean Russell and has beaten Pat Glory twice and Travis Piotrowski once, which is just slightly then Bresser's next best wins of Brent Fleetwood and Cole Varner.
Rayvon Foley's out of conference loss to Drew Hildebrandt sends him sliding down a few notches. Hildebrandt meanwhile makes a top 20 appearance, which means UNI's Jay Schwarm is unfortunately pushed out on to the bubble.
