BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Opening weekend for the Lehigh men's wrestling team begins with seniors Sheldon Seymour and Max Brignola competing Saturday at the NWCA All-Star Classic at Rutgers' Jersey Mike's Arena, and continues into Sunday with the Mountain Hawks sending a sizeable contingent to the Princeton Open.

Wrestling at the NWCA All-Star Classic begins at 7 p.m. with streaming video on FloWrestling.org.

Seymour, an EIWA champion and All-American last season, will face Eddie Ventresca of Virginia Tech at 125, while Brignola, coming off a deferred eligibility season, will face Stanford's Hunter Garvin at 165.

The NWCA All-Star Classic will begin with four women's freestyle matches, followed by a matchup of Division II vs. Division III wresters. When the Division I men's matches begin, Seymour's bout with Ventresca will be fourth in the match order and Brignola's match versus Garvin will be sixth.

At the Princeton Open, wrestling begins at 9 a.m. from Jadwin Gym in New Jersey. Princeton will have 12 mats of wrestling action. Streaming video will be available on ESPN+ while brackets and live scoring can be found on FloArena.

Probable entrants (subject to change):
133 – Matty Lopes (unattached)
141 – Carter Bailey, Seamus Mack
149 – Kelvin Griffin, Matt Repos, Jadon Skellenger
157 – Griffin Gonzalez, Zac Martin
165 – Owen Quinn, Chase Van Hoven
174 – Duncan Christensen, Zeke Dubler, Dom Federici, Keegan Gagnon, Liam Gil-Swiger, Richie Grungo, Justin Onello
184 – Rylan Rogers, Jared Schoppe, Jack Wilt
197 – Remy Brancato, JT Davis, Dontae Hoose

Last year, 21 Lehigh wrestlers opened their seasons at the Princeton Open. Seymour and Rozynski won individual titles to lead that contingent.

The Mountain Hawks came in at No. 8 in the NWCA Top 25, unveiled earlier this week.

Next weekend, Lehigh will compete at Journeymen WrangleMania, Nov. 8 at Liberty High School, where the Mountain Hawks will wrestle duals against Duke (1:30 p.m.) and Virginia (3:30 p.m.). On Sunday, Nov. 9 the Mountain Hawks will compete at the Journeymen Collegiate Classic round-robin event at Freedom High School.

The 2025-26 Lehigh men's wrestling season is presented by the Historic Hotel Bethlehem.
