Off the top of my head - Harvard and MIT

Division 1 or any division? BU is also D1. MIT is 2 or 3.

I am originally from MA, let me know, I can give you a pretty comprehensive list. There are a lot of small d2 and d3 schools.

Or I think they used to have a list on masswrestling.com. Not sure if they still do, as I haven't been to that site in a long time.

Is Harvard the only junior college program in Mass?

MIT is likely to have at least 1 wrestler at the DIII National Championships in CEDAR RAPIDS, IA in March (shameless plug for the tournament).

Here's a list from Intermat:

Boston University Division I
Harvard University Division I

American International College Division II

Bridgewater State College Division III
Massachusetts Institute Of Technology Division III
Springfield College Division III
Western New England Division III
Williams College Division III
Worcester Polytech Institute Division III

Springfield TCC NJCAA

There's also college wrestling in all the other New England states, but Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont only have one college program each.
By the way, the Journeyman Duals in near Albany in late November, and that will include Iowa, Central Michigan, and Maryland. :O (Another plug ...)

Wow, I like the plug for the last one listed!! I plan to attend this year since we meet Iowa and Missouri before wrestling UNCG. It will be interesting to see how we stack up!

Mass. wrestling is definitely 2nd tier, but there are two Olympic Medalists from the schools listed above.
Who came name them?

I believe Jimmy Pedro (2x Olympic Bronze Medalist in judo) is also originally from MA, although he wrestled at Brown University, which is in RI.
