The Beavers lose a couple to the ends of eligibility but bring back seven for what should be a competitive & successful season of Oregon State wrestling.
Gone...
Maximo Renteria ends his career as a two-time NCAA DI qualifier. A PAC-12 champion in 2025, he was the runner-up this past season. 6th & 2nd place finishes at Cliff Keen Las Vegas.
Matt Olguin, who I believe could have even been in contention for a National title, would've for sure been an All-American during his career had it not been for all the injuries he suffered. Nevertheless he did earn qualification three times & he did win the PAC-12 title this year. He was also a two-time CKLV place-winner with finishes of 3rd & 7th.

| 133 Gabe Whisenhunt |
Consistency may not be his thing, but showing up at various times is. A PAC-12 champion this past season, Gabe Whisenhunt was also 5th at the Midlands & had a 9-6 win over Markel Baker who finished off his season one match shy of All-American honors.
 |
| 141 Nash Singleton |
Nash Singleton heads into 2026-2027 now a two-time PAC-12 champion with back-to-back CKLV finishes of 6th.
 |
| 149 Noah Tolentino |
Noah Tolentino came up short of NCAA DI qualification this past season, but should be among the 33 for the Beavers in 2027. Stuck Gabe Willochell at the 1:54 mark, & then to prove that wasn't a fluke, defeated him 14-8.
 |
| 157 C.J. Hamblin |
An NCAA DI qualifier in 2025, a PAC-12 runner-up finish wasn't enough to get him in in 2026. One match shy of placing at CKLV, he took 3rd at the Midlands.
 |
| 174 Daschle Lamer |
21-5 on the year, Daschle Lamer enters '26-'27 with PAC-12 finishes of 2nd & 1st. He was also a runner-up at last year's Midlands.
 |
| 184 T.J. McDonnel |
Like Hamblin, T.J. McDonnell was a NCAA DI qualifier in 2025, where a PAC-12 runner-up finish did not reacquire him qualification in 2026.
 |
| 197 Justin Rademacher |
23-5 on the year, a PAC-12 runner-up finish did get Justin Rademacher into the NCAA DI championships last year. He was also 3rd at CKLV.
