| Clackamas |
West District team champions, the Clackamas Cougars qualified 9 to the NJCAA championships this past season & return four. Ane'ee Vigil a two-time NJCAA champion, will be competing for Arizona State this upcoming season. Cesar Avelar, 2nd & 3rd in the NJCAA nation, will be taking his talents to Life. Josh Hannan, 3rd in the West District, will be competing for Grand View. Not sure about the current status of Julian Gorring, who was 5th in the NJCAA last season.
133 - Gavin Bauder won both the West District & the NJCAA title this past season
157 - Henry Dillingham was a West District champion & an NJCAA finalist this season.
174 - Nakoa Fouret was a West District champion & one match shy of NJCAA All-American honors
197 - Nate Ronan was a West District champion & 8th in the NJCAA nation.
| North Idaho |
Historically, I think I would have to call North Idaho probably the best pipeline in the NJCAA. Most stars that compete for North Idaho go on to become stars in other divisions of collegiate wrestling. The here and now is no different. Elijah Cater, 7th & 3rd in the NJCAA the past two seasons (and one of the only to hand Ane'ee Vigil a loss) will be taking his talents to Grand View. I'm unsure of the other four who are now out of community college eligibility but wouldn't be surprised to hear of them ending up somewhere, including 3rd in the NJCAA Sam Silveria.
The Cardinals return four of the nine qualifiers they had last season.
133 - Hoyt Hvass took 3rd at the West District
157 - Jake Hubby made the West District finals
165 - Gage Lake was a West District finalist & one match shy of NJCAA All-American honors
HWT - Ray Griffin won a West District title & finished 4th in the NJCAA nation.

14 dual wins on the season, the Badgers sent 9 to the NJCAA championships & 4 of these 9 return to action in '25-'26. Haven't heard anything about new homes, but home to soon. Especially for Chandler Thompson who with 8th & 4th place finishes in the NJCAA, was the Badgers first ever two-time All-American.
125 - Dagen Lamano who a Utah Tech Open title & finished 3rd at the West District
141 - Jake Finlinson was the West District runner-up
149 - Wylie Stone won the Utah Tech Open, taking runner-up finishes at both the Battle of the Rockies & the West District. He was one match shy of NJCAA All-American honors
157 - Josiah Wickard won a Utah Tech Open title & finished 3rd in the West District
| Big Bend |
I honestly don't know the situation here. The Vikings qualified 7 to the NJCAA championships last season & even had two finish in the R12. As to who will be back & who will not, have no idea. The team website has very little information. No photos, no hometowns, no classifications. Robert Stack? Paging Robert Stack.
174 - Mario D Lopez was 2nd in the West District last season.
