I've been really digging into college wrestling stats lately, and I was wondering if anyone knows which wrestler holds the record for most pins in a single season?
The record for the most pins in a Division I wrestling season is held by Wade Schalles from Clarion University, with 106 pins during the 1972-1973 season. Schalles was an exceptional wrestler known for his unorthodox style, frequently using a move called the "spladle" to pin his opponents. He was not only a record-setting pinner, but he was also a two-time NCAA champion, and his career endeavors earned him a spot in the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.
