College wrestling rankings: InterMat updates all 10 weight classes after Week 4

With the 2024-25 NCAA Wrestling a month old, InterMat released their updated individual rankings following Week 4 of the season.

The dual season is already getting spicy and there are some old and new faces making their mark! As usual, InterMat ranks No. 1 through 33 in all 10 weight classes.

We’ll dive into the top 10 at each weight, while listing the full rankings below.

125 lbs.

1. Richie Figueroa, Arizona State
2. Caleb Smith, Nebraska (+1)
3. Matt Ramos, Purdue (+1)
4. Tanner Jordan, South Dakota State (+1)
5. Troy Spratley, Oklahoma State (+1)
6. Stevo Poulin, Northern Colorado (+1)
7. Jore Volk, Wyoming (-5)
8. Nico Provo, Stanford
9. Greg Diakomihalis, Cornell
10. Brendan McCrone, Ohio State

Figueroa is still at the top despite an injury here. His status is TBD. Volk lost to Spratley and dropped a bit while others rose up the ranks. Provo still has yet to make his season debut in 2024-25.

133 lbs.

1. Ryan Crookham, Lehigh
2. Lucas Byrd, Illinois (+1)
3. Nasir Bailey, Little Rock-Arkansas (-1)

6. Drake Ayala, Iowa (+3)
7. Evan Frost, Iowa State (-2)
8. Tyler Wells, Minnesota
9. Tyler Knox, Stanford (+2)
10. Braeden Davis, Penn State (-3)

The top four stayed the same this week but Shawver moved up a spot to No. 5. He’s still undefeated on the season. Frost moves back with a loss, Knox is 5-0 and now in the top 10 and Ayala had a solid bump this week.

141 lbs.

1. Andrew Alirez, Northern Colorado
2. Jesse Mendez, Ohio State
3. Beau Bartlett, Penn State
4. Brock Hardy, Nebraska
5. Vance Vombaur, Minnesota

7. Sergio Lemley, Michigan (+1)
8. Josh Koderhandt, Navy (+1)
9. Jordan Titus, West Virginia (+2)
10. Tagen Jamison, Oklahoma State (+2)

The top six didn’t shift following the fourth week of the season. Titus and Jamison are now in the top 10 as they are 4-0 and 7-0, respectively. NC State’s Kai Orine is 8-2, but fell back a few spots out of the top 10.

149 lbs.

1. Caleb Henson, Virginia Tech
2. Shayne Van Ness, Penn State
3. Ty Watters, West Virginia
4. Kyle Parco, Iowa
5. Ridge Lovett, Nebraska
6. Lachlan McNeil, North Carolina
7. Anthony Echemendia, Iowa State
8. Chance Lamer, Cal Poly
9. Ty Whalen, Princeton
10. Kannon Webster, Illinois 

No changes this week. Henson looks awesome and so does Van Ness. The top five are all undefeated, but there might be a clear top two in this weight class coming from Virginia Tech and Penn State.

157 lbs.

1. Jacori Teemer, Iowa
2. Meyer Shapiro, Cornell
3. Antrell Taylor, Nebraska (+1)
4. Tyler Kasak, Penn State (+1)

6. Ryder Downey, Northern Iowa
7. Tommy Askey, Minnesota
8. Ed Scott, NC State (+1)
9. Paddy Gallagher, Ohio State (+1)
10. Paniro Johnson, Iowa State (+1)

Teemer’s injury could be cause for concern as the grad transfer might be out for a bit. Shapiro is still injured but the top two remain intact. Taylor’s been on a tear and Kasak reestablished himself for Penn State at a new weight. Otherwise, there was no shifting in the rankings.

165 lbs.

1. Mitchell Mesenbrink, Penn State
2. Mikey Caliendo, Iowa
3. Peyton Hall, West Virginia
4. Julian Ramirez, Cornell
5. Terrell Barraclough, Utah Valley

8. MJ Gaitan, Iowa State (+1)
9. Cameron Amine, Oklahoma State (-3)
10. Will Miller, Appalachian State (-2)

The top five remained the same this week but how about Sasso? He’s now 3-0 in his return to the mat and looks like a new man. Gaitan moved up while Amine took a dip as he’s 2-2 on the season.

2. Levi Haines, Penn State
3. Cade DeVos, South Dakota State

8. Lorenzo Norman, Stanford (+1)
9. Nelson Brands, Iowa (+1)
10. Lenny Pinto, Nebraska (-4)

Wolak is the only one in the top five with a loss but they all stayed in the same spot. Incontrera has gotten better every season and moved up a spot. Pinto dropped with a toss and everyone else shifted up.

The top eight stayed the same this week as McEnelly moved up a spot, as well as Hawks. He makes his top 10 debut after Illinois Edmond Ruth dropped to No. 12 with a 5-3 record. Foca has yet to make his season debut.

7. Isaiah Salazar, Minnesota
8. Zach Glazier, South Dakota State
9. Trey Munoz, Oregon State
10. Luke Geog, Ohio State (+1)

Not much here as the top nine remained the same. Elam has yet to wrestle though. Buchanan looks like a man possessed right now as well. Geog is 7-1 and now into the top 10 of the rankings.

3. Wyatt Hendrickson, Oklahoma State

The top nine remained the same as last week. Steveson is 2-0 with two tech falls, including one over Ghadiali, in his return to the mat. Trephan is back in the rankings now that he’s at Lehigh. He wrestled unattached and went 7-0 in the first few weeks for NC State, but was able to change locations as a grad transfer. His former teammate Trumble is now 6-1 on the year.
