December 2025 U.S. Men's Freestyle Rankings
57 KG
#1 Spencer Lee was pinned up at 135lb by Andrey Yatsenko (UKR) at RAF 3. This does not affect his 57 KG ranking position. #18 (INT) Caleb Smith (PUR) won the Bill Farrell Memorial over Sultan Kurmanaliyev (KAZ) with #19 (INT) Munkh Erdene Batkhuyag (MGL) taking bronze.
61 KG
#5 Austin DeSanto won the Bill Farrell Memorial over Erdenebat Bekhbayar (MGL) with Kyle Burwick taking bronze. Kyle Burwick takes the #6 spot in the rankings for beating #6 Michael McGee in the repechage bracket of the Bill Farrell Memorial.
65 KG
Jordan Oliver beat #1 Real Woods at RAF 3. Oliver has been inactive since the 2024 70 KG Senior World Team Trials and it is not known if he has fully committed for freestyle competition, so he will need to compete again to qualify for the rankings. This is also due in part to Real American Freestyle intermittent and unpredictable schedule not providing much certainty or clarity to if Oliver will be competing on the U.S. circuit full time this season or if he will only compete within Real American Freestyle events.
#8 Bo Bassett pinned Darrion Caldwell at RAF 3. #8 Bo Bassett won the Bill Farrell Memorial over Beau Bartlett with Kizhan Clarke (GER) taking bronze.

Yaraslav Slavikouski (BLR) won the Bill Farrell Memorial over Jacob Cardenas with #8 Zane Lanham taking bronze. Cardenas beat #8 Zane Lanham in the semis but because he only competed at 97 KG to get competition since there was only one other person (Omer Ozyildirim) in his bracket, he cannot be ranked until another competition at 97 KG.
125 KG
