The NC State Wolfpack return a very strong lineup from last year lead by 197 pounder Trent Hidlay. Currently ranked #8 by Flowrestling in the preseason polls this team will have a lot to prove this year.
Projected Lineup:
125- Jakob Camacho
133- Kai Orine
141- Ryan Jack
149- Jackson Arrington
157- Ed Scott
165- Derek Fields
174- Alex Faison
184- Dylan Fishback
197- Trent Hidlay
285- Owen Trephan
Very strong lineup that the Wolfpack are looking to bring into this season. A lot of top ten wrestlers and having Hidlay who has been a title contender pretty much every year will propel this team through the dual meet season.
Dylan Fishback had a very impressive high school career along with a 15-6 redshirt season last year, with Hidlay moving up to 197 he will have the perfect spot here in the lineup and will definitely have a lot of eyes on him.
Camacho, Orine, Jack, Arrington, Scott, and Trephan are veterans in this lineup and all of them will be looking to get back, or get on the podium for the first time this season at NCAAs.
Faison at 174 has proven to be a solid part in this lineup with a 16-9 record this past season, Fields at 165 may really be the only “weak” or not as strong as the rest of the lineup but still holding a positive record from this past season.
This team is very solid overall, but will most likely have more tournament success compared to dual meet success, however with that being said they have always performed in big matches.
