2020-21 NCAA Division III Rankings

NCAA DIII 165-Pound Rankings

Kyle Hatch was undefeated and primed to make his first finals appearance in 2020. Hatch is the clear #1 but Bradan Birt is right there. Birt blitzed the field at the Lower Midwest Regional which was loaded! These two are as tough as they come; I’m excited to see the result of this matchup whenever it happens. 

Antwon Pugh made the move to 165 late in the season; an offseason of getting bigger and filling in to 165 could make Pugh a serious threat. Pugh was a national finalist at 157 back in 2019. Everyone else at this weight will be looking for their first All-American finish. Dominick Reyes was the Southeast Regional Champion a season ago and will look to finish his career on the podium. He is a multiple-time qualifier for John Hopkins.
