Roster depth & fit Recruit Pass verified 2026-09-03

5 crowded weights · 0 lighter weights on the 2025-26 roster (36 listed) · Wrestling competitiveness: Very strong

Counted from the 2025-26 roster. We recount when UW-Whitewater's 2026-27 roster goes up, and the change log shows it.

  1. The roster is 36 with five weights holding 4-5 wrestlers - what is the redshirt and JV/open-tournament plan for a freshman who does not win the wrestle-off?
  2. You won the Region V title but went 4-11 in duals - how do you build the dual schedule and does a young wrestler get dual starts?

Recruit Pass adds on this page:

  • 6 more coach questions
  • all 7 fit ratings, with the evidence behind each
  • all 10 weights counted, with seniors and grads marked

One Pass covers every D2 & D3 program. See a fully open example: Adams State →
