The University of Calgary Dinos wrestling teams are back in action one final time this calendar year, once again hitting the road for two days of action down in Lethbridge.

The first U SPORTS wrestling rankings of the year came out this week, and the Dinos women's program was once again ranked tops in the nation. Calgary was ranked No. 1 two times last season and nearly the whole year during the 2023-24 campaign, showing just how dominant they have been in recent years. Calgary's men's team checked in at No. 3 in Canada in the first rankings of the year. Although they're routinely one of the top-10 programs in Canada, starting the year third is a noteworthy jump from recent years and a nod to the success long-time head coach Mitch Ostberg and assistant Carol Huynh have put in with the group.

After the break, Calgary will return to the mat one more time Jan. 16-17 at Alberta before returning to Edmonton Feb. 14 for this year's Canada West Championships.
