NEWTON, IOWA — Lock Haven’s Anthony Noto has taken over the top spot at 125 pounds in WIN Magazine’s Nov. 14 rankings, presented by Cliff Keen Athletic.
Noto, a junior and 2023 All-American, has scored a pair of technical falls two weeks into the season and earned the No. 1 spot after Matt Ramos, who was previously top-ranked, lost to NC State’s Jakob Camacho last weekend. For his efforts, the Wolfpack junior, who missed last season because of injury moved up six spots from last week’s rankings to claim the No. 2 spot at 125.
Penn State, which features four top-ranked wrestlers — Levi Haines (157), Carter Starocci (174), Aaron Brooks (197) and Greg Kerkvliet (Hwt) — remains the No. 1 team with 148 TPI points. The Nittany Lions are followed by Missouri, Cornell, NC State and Iowa.
WIN’s TPI is based on a point total associated with individual placement and advancement points that could be scored in the 2024 NCAAs if wrestlers finish where they are ranked. The following is a breakdown of those points: 20 for 1st place, 16 for 2nd, 13.5 for 3rd, 12.5 for 4th, 10 for 5th, 9 for 6th, 6.5 for 7th and 5.5 for 8th. Wrestlers ranked 9-12 earn two points each, followed by one and a half points for wrestlers ranked 13-16 and one point for those ranked 17-20.
Also, it should be noted that WIN’s individual rankings are not necessarily simply an update of recent wins and losses, but more of a prediction at this point in the season of where wrestlers would be seeded at the 2024 NCAAs, which will be held in Kansas City, Mo., next March, if that event was held now.
The other top-ranked wrestlers include defending champs Vito Arujau (133) of Cornell and Keegan O’Toole (165) of Missouri … as well as Iowa’s Real Woods (141), Nebraska’s Ridge Lovett (149) and Northern Iowa’s Parker Keckeisen (184).
The eight newcomers to this week’s rankings including a trio from Ohio State: Isaac Wilcox (165), Ryder Rogotzke (184) and Nick Feldman (Hwt). The others are American’s Jack Maida (125), Lehigh’s Ryan Crookham (133), Iowa State’s Anthony Echemendia (149), Indiana’s Graham Rooks (149) and West Virginia’s Ty Watters (149).
WIN Magazine will announce its first dual-team rankings in December.
