| 133 Richie Koehler Sophomore Record: 38-23 NCAA: 21'NQ MAC: 21'2nd |
Koehler looks to become a two time NCAA qualifier for the Broncs this season. Notable victories include a 7-1 decision over Drew Marten of Central Michigan and a 3-2 victory over Bryce West of Northern Illinois.

| 141 Quinn Kinner Sophomore Record: 38-11 |
With MAC runner-up McKenzie Bell redshirting this season, the 141 spot goes to Ohio State transfer Quinn Kinner who has had success thus far at three different weight classes. Going 16-3 at 141 in 2019, he owns an 8-2 victory over Caleb Rea of West Virginia. In 2020 he competed at both 133 & 157. A 6-4 win over Mario Guillen of Ohio, what really sticks out is a 21-6 technical fall over Johnny Lovett of Central Michigan. If he can have that kind of success as a severely undersized 157 lbs'er it makes one wonder what he can do at 141 this season.

| 157 Jake Silverstein Sophomore Record: 27-16 NCAA: 21'NQ MAC: 21'5th |
An NCAA qualifier at 165 lbs last season, Silverstein moves down to 157 this season. A rather loaded weight class within the MAC it is difficult to say exactly where Silverstein will finish. He'll be a place-winner & should qualify for his second appearance at the NCAA's.

| 184 George Walton Junior Record: 59-34 MAC: 20'4th, 21'6th |
Walton hasn't done as well as I thought he would. I think what happened to him last season was that he exhausted himself in a 2-1 tiebreaker loss to MAC runner-up Jeremiah Kent of Missouri & then dropped a 2-1 tiebreaker to Max Wohlabaugh of Clarion. By the time he faced Ethan Duca of Edinboro in the 5th place match, he was spent.
Truth is, Walton is good enough to make the MAC finals. Matter of fact, he's good enough to win an MAC title. I keep saying that the forerunner for the MAC title this season is All American Britt Wilson of Northern Illinois, but Walton owns a 7-6 victory over the Husky. He's also beaten Wohlabaugh 6-4 & Duca 16-11. Other notable victories include Antonio Agree of Old Dominion, Corey Hazel of Lock Haven & teammate MAC champion Dean Sherry.

| 197 Matt Correnti Senior Record: 61-47 NCAA: 17'NQ BIG 10: 17'6th MIDLANDS: 18'R12 |
If healthy, Matt Correnti should make a run at the MAC title this season. I see a competitive final between him and Ben Smith of Cleveland State. Although he's battled injuries he owns a 5-3 victory over Gage Braun Northern Illinois & a 6-3 victory over teammate Ethan Laird (who is redshirting this season). Correnti also defeated PAC-12 champion Dom Ducharme of CSU-Bakersfield 5-2.
