KYPSW Nationals Edition, 2025
Here it is, the third and final installment of the 2024-25 Know Your Penn State Wrestlers competition. Nationals! We will crown an NCAA Tournament Champion, and then an Overall KYPSW 2024-25 Champion. 1000 points are available for this competition.
What You Need To Do
For each of the 10 PSU wrestlers, predict his:
(1) Place finish as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, R12, or R16+
(2) Cumulative bonus points scored, can be entered in 0.5 point increments
Notes:
- R12 means the wrestler reaches the “Round of 12”, but does not advance.
- R16+ means the wrestler is eliminated from the tournament within the “Round of 16” or earlier.
- All predictions must be posted in this thread by 12:00 PM Eastern on Thursday, March 20th.
Scoring
For each PSU wrestler, you will be awarded “Placement Points” based on your prediction for where the wrestler places in the tournament. You will also be awarded “Bonus Points” based on your predicted number of bonus points scored by the wrestler. The scoring structure for Placement Points and Bonus Points are listed below.
Placement Points
90 points for correct prediction
80 points for prediction off by 1 place
70 points for prediction off by 2 places
55 points for prediction off by 3 places
40 points for prediction off by 4 places
20 points for prediction off by 5 places
0 points for prediction off by 6+ places
Notes:
- R12 will be treated functionally as “10th place”, meaning it is considered 2 place finishes below 8th for purposes of the contest.
- R16+ will be treated functionally as “14th place”, meaning it is considered 4 place finishes below R12 and 6 place finishes below 8th for purposes of the contest.
Examples:
- You predict R12, wrestler finishes R12, you score 90 pts. for correct prediction.
- You predict R12, wrestler finishes 8th, you score 70 pts. for prediction off by 2.
- You predict R12, wrestler finishes 7th, you score 55 pts. for prediction off by 3.
- You predict R12, wrestler is eliminated before reaching the Round of 16, you score 40 pts. for prediction off by 4.
- You predict R16+, wrestler loses in the Round of 16, you score 90 pts. for correct prediction.
- You predict R16+, wrestler finishes R12, you score 40 pts. for prediction off by 4.
- You predict R16+, wrestler finishes 8th, you score 0 pts. for prediction off by 6.
- You predict 6th, wrestler finishes R12, you score 40 pts. for prediction off by 4.
Bonus Points

8 points for prediction off by 0.5 pts
6 points for prediction off by 1.0 pts
4 points for prediction off by 1.5 pts
3 points for prediction off by 2.0 pts
2 points for prediction off by 2.5 pts
1 point for prediction off by 3.0 pts
0 points for prediction off by 3.5+ pts
Notes:
- Major Decision = 1.0 bonus points
- Tech Fall = 1.5 bonus points
- Fall, Medical Forfeit, Injury Default, and Disqualification = 2.0 bonus points.
The maximum attainable score under this system is 1000 points. Tiebreaker criteria are (1) most placement points, (2) most “90-point” placement predictions, (3) most “80-point” placement predictions, (4) most “70-point” placement predictions, (5) most “55-point” placement predictions, (6) most “40 point” placement predictions, (7) most “20 point” placement predictions, and (8) most message board posts.

I like the precision with which you are picking Barr to finish in 4.0th. You are really going to be ticked off if he finishes in 4.1th place.
I think… I have it at 215 and you have it at 212.5. I didn’t double-check.
