Penn State wrestling set a new high bar for points at an NCAA Wrestling Championships in 2026. Here's the new record number.

Really don't mind seeing Forrest win. He is fun to watch.
Yeah, but other than that, he has yet to do it.He did it twice
I think you are missing the bigger picture. For quite awhile PSU had 5 studs and another 5 who placed 5th or didn’t AA. Out of those 5, 4 went through to the finals. 80%. But now we have 8+ studs so of course it’s going to be tougher to keep 80 % making the finals. The overall program has gotten much better. We still have those 5 studs that go through but the other 5 are also fighting for the finals
Well, another tremendous season and tournament. The youth movement in college wrestling,coupled with the COVID era finally passing us by, sets up an amazing few year stretch!
Damn Cleveland where is all the cheering you did for Oklahoma State against Penn State now?
Eat ****
Eat ****
I’m just happy so many fOSU fans were in attendance to see their “world famous Buckeyes” take home zero titles. A remarkable 5th place finish.
If I'm Pat Kraft I drop wrestling immediately, there's no point in it anymore because Jax Forrest is the greatest of all time and nobody will ever come close.
**** that i will not root for okie state
7 of ten champions from Penn State / ok state. That's going to be the normal heading forward
Why do so many wrestlers have such wimpy voices? Half these guys sound like they've been inhaling helium...
I actually think it is impressive, beat the scoring record with 8 AA verse 10 AA last year.Team underperformed this year. Five guys finished below their seed and no one finished above seed. Yet somehow we won our fifth straight title and set records for most bonus points and most total point. What could they do if they ever wrestle to their potential?
Iowa Style. Poor sportsmanship. Sad.
Hard to not like Jax...David Taylor has his David Taylor. Maybe better.
When I was in HS and kid who was 19 was a dummy who flunked.

And recorded 4 National Champs - more than any other school.
And that should definitely wrap up the Hodge for MM!
I don't know, I'm getting some Ferrari vibes from his antics
Shame on everyone who criticized this team tonight. No one is perfect but this team is the best ever by the only measurable we have. POINTS SCORED. Thank you Cael, coaches and kids for a wonderful year.
I really look forward to asking jax and dt if i see them how they feel in 4 years with no team championships lol
Buckle up - Okie State is coming whether we like it or not. Looking forward to some fun battles over the next 5 years!

Penn State wrestlers Luke Lilledahl, Mitchell Mesenbrink, Levi Haines, and Josh Barr win NCAA titles
Penn State wrestling looks to make more history tonight in the final session of the 2026 NCAA Championships. Follow live updates here.
Apparently PSU doesn't have youth...
Nah. He's from North Carolina and wouldn't have been in PA if not for Bishop McCruit.
I don't dislike him, but I'm not in a hurry to root for the Cowboy Hype Machine either.
If Cael does not win coach of the year (of course he is the clear winner) and they choose to give it to somebody clearly less deserving, I have a win win situation, just name the trophy after him
Hard to finish above 1.Team underperformed this year. Five guys finished below their seed and no one finished above seed. Yet somehow we won our fifth straight title and set records for most bonus points and most total point. What could they do if they ever wrestle to their potential?
Guys - for the record on this silly commercial, neither gable nor smith is incline bench pressing 135 at this point 
And that is why so many wrestlers are hesitant to shoot anymore. Davino took the one shot, got countered, rode and lost. So many of today's top wrestlers are great counter wrestlers, as Jax obviously is.
We are truly spoiled by this INCREDIBLE, historic dynasty. 13 of 15 championships. Getting 4 national champions has come to be ho hum. Amazing.
