Northern Colorado has seven wrestlers ranked in the most recent NCAA rankings
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The NCAA released its second set of coaches rankings for the 2021 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships. Two new Bears join the rankings alongside the five who were ranked in the first iteration.
Andrew Alirez (149 lbs) and Dalton Robertson (HWT) made their debut in the rankings going into next week's Big 12 Championships. Alirez comes in at No. 20 and Robertson at No. 32.
Alan Clothier (184 lbs) and Chris Sandoval (141 lbs) moved up in the rankings. Clothier jumped up two spots to be ranked No. 18, while Sandoval now stands at No. 30.
Mosha Schwartz (133 lbs), Jackson Hemauer (174 lbs) and Jacob Seely (197) round of the ranked wrestlers for UNC. Schwartz checks in at No. 15, Hemauer at No. 24 and Seely No. 26.
The coaches rankings are determined by a vote of 14 coaches in each weight class with two head coaches from each conference. For ranking purposes, coaches may only consider a wrestler that has been designated as a starter at a respective weight class. For the second ranking, wrestlers must have three Division I matches in the weight class to be considered with at least one within the last 30 days. For the final coaches ranking that will be utilized during the at-large selection and seeding process, wrestlers will need a minimum of four Division I matches in the weight class.
Northern Colorado heads to the Big 12 Championships next weekend, March 6 and 7 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
