2021-22 NCAA Division 3 Rankings

174 pounds

Division III wrestling is back! The D3 wrestling community has been in a unique position since the cancellation of the 2020 NCAA Championships. The majority of D3 did not compete last season because of the ongoing pandemic and only 34 teams were able to finish their season on a high note at the NWCA Championships last March. 

Everybody is back and competing, with that comes pandemonium. Week one had some crazy results and major upsets. The first set of rankings is reflective of week one results. The following criteria list was also applied for the first set of national rankings with the early season results taken into consideration:

  • 2020 NCAA seeds

  • 2020 NCAA returning qualifiers

  • 2021 results and NWCA placewinners

Wrestlers were ranked at weight classes they competed at in their first event of the season with the full understanding many wrestlers will be descending down to their competition weight later in the semester. Once they compete at the weight they will then be eligible to be ranked at the lower weight class. If a wrestler is not certified in the Trackwrestling database then they’re not eligible for a ranking at this time.
