The Wolverines finished 12-1 in dual meet competition last year with their lone loss coming to Penn State at the Crisler Center. The maize and blue went on to win the B1G tournament for the first time since 1973, upsetting #1 Penn State by 1.5 points. At the national tournament they finished 2nd, which was tied for their best finish in history and best since 2005. The Wolverines also tied a program record with six All-Americans, one being a national champion in Nick Suriano.

285: Mason Parris (RS SR)

125: Jack Medley (GR)

Last season Medley began the year as the starter until graduate transfer Nick Suriano came to Michigan during the spring semester for the Wolverines. Medley is a 2020 national qualifier at 125 pounds and has solid wins over All-Americans Brandon Kaylor (Oregon State), Michael DeAugustino (Northwestern), and Eric Barnett (Wisconsin). In his final year of eligibility with the Wolverines, Medley is considered to be a lock to qualify for NCAA’s and has the upside to make it deep into the tournament.

133: Dylan Ragusin (RS SO)

Ragusin is a 2x national qualifier for the Wolverines and was one match away from making it on the podium at the national tournament last season. In the 2020-21 season Ragusin started at 125 pounds and qualified for the national tournament, where he bowed out with a 1-2 record. Last season Ragusin lost in the quarterfinals in a thrilling 8-7 bout to #3 Michael McGee (Arizona St) at NCAA’s before dropping his Round of 12 match to #7 Lucas Byrd (Illinois). Ragusin holds wins over a slew of All-Americans including Pat McKee (Minnesota), Chris Cannon (Northwestern), Rayvon Foley (Michigan State), and Lucas Byrd (Illinois). Look for Ragusin to build on what was a successful 2021-22 season and finish as an All-American at NCAA’s this year.

141: Cole Mattin (RS JR)

During the 2021-22 season Cole Mattin competed at 141 pounds behind Stevan Micic and raked in a couple solid wins over 3x national qualifier Parker Filius (Purdue) and national qualifier Frankie Tal-Shahar (Northwestern). When Kanen Storr was injured, Mattin made the move up to 149 pounds to fill in the spot. His season, however, was cut short  in his match against Beau Bartlett (Penn State) when he got hurt and was forced to sit out for the rest of the year. With Stevan Micic graduated the expectation is for Mattin to be the guy manning the starting spot at 141 pounds this year. Having wins over the likes of Filius and Tal-Shahar should be a good sign that he can compete with top 25 guys on a consistent basis. Pencil in Mattin as a national qualifier for the Wolverines this coming season.

149: Chance Lamer (RS FR)

Chance Lamer turned in a stellar year in his initial year with the Wolverines, finishing with a record of 17-2 as a redshirt. His two losses came at the hands of  NCAA qualifiers Corbyn Munson (Central Michigan) and Marcus Robinson (Cleveland State). Lamer, however, did avenge the loss to Robinson later in the same tournament. With 3x national qualifier Kanen Storr graduating,  Lamer is now expected to fill those shoes. Look for Lamer to quickly crack the top-25 and makes an impact for the maize and blue in his first year as the starter.

157: Will Lewan (RS SR)

Will Lewan is now a 3x national qualifier and last year finished 5th at the national tournament in Detroit, tearing through the tournament as a #8 seed and being one takedown from making the finals. Lewan has a resume of wins over a long list of All-Americans and national qualifiers, notably including Jacori Teemer (Arizona State), Peyton Robb (Nebraska), Kaleb Young (Iowa), and many others. Going into the 2022-23 season Lewan is a favorite to finish high on the podium once again being ranked #3. Lewan has had close matches with both David Carr and Quincy Monday, who are ranked above him. It is quite possible for Lewan to make the national finals this coming year in Tulsa.

165: Cam Amine (RS JR)

Cam Amine is now a 2x All-American in two attempts at the national tournament, finishing 7th in 2020-21 and 4th a season ago. He’s currently on track to join Myles Amine, his cousin, as the only 5x All-Americans at UofM. During the 2021-22 season Cam finished 2nd at the B1G tournament behind Alex Marinelli, however, he avenged that loss in the quarterfinals of the national tournament when all of Little Caesars Arena erupted. During his career donning the maize and blue he has racked up wins over All-Americans Dean Hamiti (Wisconsin), Carson Kharchla (Ohio State), and Peyton Robb (Nebraska). Entering his third year as the starter for the Wolverines, Amine is ranked 3rd behind returning national champion Keegan O’Toole (Mizzou) and 2020-21 national champion Shane Griffith (Stanford), however, has had close matches with both and remains a national title contender going into the 2022-23 season.

174: Joseph Walker (RS SO) or Max Maylor (RS SR) or Jaden Bullock (RS SO)

The graduation of 3x All-American and 5x national qualifier Logan Massa now leaves what many would consider to be a hole in the UofM lineup this coming year. Three Wolverines are going to be in the mix to start with Joseph Walker being the favorite to start. Walker holds wins over both Max Maylor and Jaden Bullock in open tournaments. Max Maylor holds a win over All-American Jackson Turley (Rutgers) when he beat him during the 2020-21 season 7-5, which was the same year Turley made it on the podium at the national tournament. Going into the season, expect Walker and Maylor to be the two who compete for the starting spot and see both splitting time before the coaching staff makes a decision on who starts. 

184: Matt Finesilver (GR)

During the off-season, the Michigan coaching staff went and grabbed 3x national qualifier Matt Finesilver from the transfer portal, which fills a huge hole after the graduation of 5x All-American and Olympic bronze medalist Myles Amine. Finesilver competed for Duke and was a 3x national qualifier at 174 pounds for the Blue Devils. Last season Finesilver finished with a record of 29-9 and made the round of 16 at the national tournament. Throughout his career he has racked up a win over an All-American in Marcus Coleman (Iowa State) and Thomas Bullard (NC State), along with notable national qualifiers in Hayden Hastings (Wyoming) and Chris Foca (Cornell). Going into his final collegiate season Finesilver is just outside the top 8 and is in the mix to finish on the podium at NCAA’s this year.

197: Bobby Striggow (RS SR)

Striggow enters his final season with big shoes to fill after Pat Brucki finished his lone season at Michigan as a national qualifier with a slew of wins over All-Americans. Striggow comes into the season with plenty of experience after finishing his 2021-22 season with a record of 12-13. During his time donning the maize and blue, his arguably  biggest win is over former national qualifier Garrett Hoffman of Indiana, where he won 6-5 at the Cleveland State Open a season ago. 

285: Mason Parris (RS SR)

Parris is now a 4x national qualifier and 2x All-American for Michigan as he enters his redshirt senior year. Parris holds a career record of 93-18 and has finished 2nd and 5th at the national tournament. Mason Parris has a resume of wins that extends to 3x All-American Amar Dhesi (Oregon State), 2x All-American Anthony Cassioppi (Iowa), and a long list of 1x All-Americans including Matt Stencel (Central Michigan) and Tate Orndorff (Ohio State).  Going into this season Parris is ranked 3rd and sits behind Cohlton Schultz (Arizona State) and Greg Kerkvliet (Penn State), both of whom he lost to last season. Parris continues to be a contender to win a national title in his final season as a Wolverine, and he will continue to be the anchor to the maize and blue’s lineup.
