Alduflux Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) Sorry if this is brought up every. Who had the best D1 career ever from Indiana wrestlers? I don't follow college closely so I'm not sure who I'm missing but from memory D1 finishes were. Howe: 2, 1, 3, 2 Esco: 4, 1, 5, 3 J Tsirtsis: 1, 3, 7 Hump: 2, 3 Micic, Lee, and Red all have great chances of putting themselves high on this list.

Dingo Brigade Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Think it has to be Howe at this point, followed by Angel and Jason T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

navy80 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Interesting our studs won their frosh or soph year but didn’t win it again. I guess Imar and Heil is a perfect example of how tough it is to win it senior year. piscis1956 and FCFIGHTER170 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many of these guys have made a world team/won a world medal? Lee, Yianni, Micic, Zain, Hall, Zahid, Coon, Snyder. I'm sure more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe was a true freshman (2nd), soph (1st) and jr (3rd) then double redshirt Sr (2nd). I believe everyone else was a redshirt their freshman year. Tsirtsis was a redshirt freshman champion. Esco a redshirt soph champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting tidbit, there's an article on Intermat on the various sizes of heavyweights and it said he weighed in at 190 lbs, making him the lightest ever to win heavyweight.
