Big Ten Rankings 2017-18

Ranked: All 14 Big Ten 174-Pounders

174 mirrors 165 in the Big Ten in a few ways. The top three wrestlers are three of the best in the nation. The next four nationally ranked wrestlers all have strong wins over All-Americans or All-American contenders. Sneaking into the top 20 is redshirt freshman Kaleb Young, followed closely by Chris Pfarr of Minnesota, who's right on the national ranking bubble.


Neither Jacob Covaciu nor Beau Breske have a lot of D1 results, however both blue chip receipts have tremendous potential, and the Badgers and Huskers will be respectively counting on them to preform this season. Both have legit shots at climbing the podium in March.


Ritchie, Woods and Braxton compete our B1G rankings, all of whom will be looking to make waves on the varsity level.
