NIC-10 College Wrestling Records

 This is an evolving page on college wrestling records. Win-Loss data before 2000 is sketchy at best for many universities and non-existent at most colleges that no longer have wrestling programs. This page will be updated as we receive or find data.

If a wrestler has a * by his name then his records are based, at least in part,
on newspaper research. Colleges have very incomplete wrestling records
prior to 2000.

* In 2003, 2004 and 2008, the full wrestleback results were not listed. It is likely
that Cory Anderson, David Dwyer, Cal Ferry and Russell Vanderheyden had more
matches that aren't listed here.
** David Dwyer Sr. (father of David and Stephen) wrestled at Hononegah before that
school was in the NIC-10.

The NIC-10 History Book is actively trying to find the records on several more wrestlers. If you know of someone who either wrestled NCAA Division 1 or was an All-American at any level and they are not listed here, email Alex Gary at alexgary87@gmail.com.
