The award is given to the nation’s top wrestler every year.

In his junior season, Aaron Brooks posts a record of 17-1 following his appearance in the 2023 National Championships. On the national stage, Brooks took down both the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds to secure his third-career title at 184 pounds.

Online voting for the award is now open, as athletes who receive the most votes from fans will receive five first-place votes in consideration for the winner. Fans can vote here.

Voting will conclude at 6 p.m. on Friday, March 24, with the winner being announced on at 1 p.m. on Monday, March 27.
