Odds of Getting In
Record: 3 wins, 20 losses
You once got beaten up by a baby who then stole all your candy. Maybe wrestling is not the best fit for you. How about running?
Record: 11 wins, 12 losses
You would have a winning record, but your last opponent looked like King Kong—Prince Kong, if you will. While your work ethic is great and you're ever-improving, it doesn't look like wrestling in college is in the cards for you.
Record: 13 wins, 10 losses, 25th in your weight class, good tournament participation record
You were varsity in high school, though not the star of your team. You're not getting within sniffing distance of a scholarship, but you have a decent chance at finding a spot on a Div-II or Div-III team.
Record: 16 wins, 7 losses, 15th in your weight class, one tournament win, All-League
You wrestled at state and did better than you were expecting. You have multiple offers of scholarships—though not full rides—from a nice selection of Div-II and Div-III schools. You'll probably be the star of the team out there, too.
Record: 19 wins, 4 losses, 10th in your weight class, two tournament wins, All-League, All-State
You propelled your team to almost upsetting the favorite at state. You have a solid grasp of technical wrestling, a commitment to building your strength, and the athleticism to do it. The only thing you need to wrestle is your desire. Oh, yeah, and your opponents.
