Wrestling colleges in Ohio (16)

Every listed program in Ohio is a private college, which shapes the cost picture more than the division does. The 4 Division II programs are all in the G-MAC: Ashland, Findlay, Tiffin and Lake Erie in Painesville. The 12 Division III programs are dominated by the OAC, with eight Ohio members: Baldwin Wallace, Heidelberg, John Carroll, Mount Union, Muskingum, Ohio Northern, Otterbein and Wilmington. The rest sit in conferences based elsewhere: Hiram and Ohio Wesleyan in the NCAC, Case Western Reserve in the PAC, and Mount St. Joseph in Cincinnati in the HCAC.

Geographically, the northeast corner is dense: Baldwin Wallace, John Carroll and Case Western are all in greater Cleveland, with Lake Erie, Hiram and Mount Union within an hour. Tiffin and Heidelberg share the same town, and Findlay, Ohio Northern and Ashland fill in the northwest and north-central part of the state. Only Wilmington, Otterbein and Mount St. Joseph are in the southern half.

Federal average net price runs from about $16,530 at Mount St. Joseph and $19,237 at Otterbein up to $41,190 at Case Western, which is also by far the most selective school listed (37% admit rate). 13 of the 16 programs publish a recruiting form; Tiffin and Mount St. Joseph had none found, and Findlay offers a general athletics form. Eight programs also sponsor women's wrestling. NCAA results are not yet recorded for these programs in our data, so compare cost, roster size and coaching tenure instead; /compare puts two or three side by side, and how D3 recruiting works explains what to expect from an OAC or NCAC coach.
