2025 NCAA Wrestling Championships Recap: Carter Starocci's 5th Title + Gable Steveson Upset |N&D 72|
In this episode of Nickals and Dimes, the boys break down all the chaos, highlights, and storylines from the 2025 NCAA Wrestling Championships.
We kick things off with the biggest shock of the tournament—Wyatt Hendrickson beating Gable Steveson in one of the wildest upsets in NCAA history. From there, we dive into Penn State’s domination in the team race and what continues to make their program unstoppable.
The conversation takes a turn as we discuss the hot topic of steroids in wrestling and Meyers Shapiro's comments made after his lost to Tyler Kasak. Then it’s time to debate—who deserves the 2025 Hodge Trophy?
We also share our favorite matches and standout performances from the tournament, from underdog runs to all-out wars on the mat. Plus, big news hits as Masanosuke Ono signs with Penn State, adding more fuel to the Nittany Lion dynasty.
And yes, we talk about Donald Trump making an appearance at the tournament and the buzz it brought to the arena. To wrap it up, the boys chat about Lucas Byrd’s viral moment with his girlfriend and how it became a fan-favorite storyline.
