NC State enjoys one of the biggest home mat advantages when it competes in Reynolds Coliseum. Since Reynolds was reopened for the 2016-17 season after a $35 million renovation, NC State is 30-3 in home duals inside 'The Old Barn', including a mark of 11-1 in ACC duals over the last six season. NC State has won its last 10 duals inside Reynolds, with the last home loss coming three seasons ago - on Feb. 9, 2019 vs. #16 Pitt (16-18).
Dual Dominance
This season, NC State has outscored its foes 281-68 (31.2-7.6). NC State has claimed victory in 69 of the 90 individual matches (76.7%), and 39 wins (56.5%) have been for bonus points.
Reaching 100 Career Victories
Hayden Hidlay became only the sixth wrestler in NC State history to record 100 career wins, and the first to do since 2018, as he scored a 6-3 decision over #15 Finesilver of Duke to reach the century mark. His current career record of 100-8 (.926) is the second-highest winning percentage in school history.
On other Wolfpack 'Super Senior' has a shot at 100 career wins, as Tariq Wilson currently has 91 spread over three different weight classes.
