Mangano upsets Dean Anderson 9-4 at Who's Number One
Gavin Mangano beat U20 World champ Dean Anderson for the second straight time, 9-4, and took the No. 1 spot at 138. The rest of Who's Number One had its own argument: a no-takedown call that decided the 144 final.
On the mat
Mangano knocks off No. 1 Dean Anderson 9-4 at Who's Number One
Gavin Mangano beat No. 1 Dean Anderson 9-4 at 138 at Who's Number One, his second straight win over him. Basch had Mangano ranked No. 3 at 144, a weight up, before the match. GlobalWrestOrder says the Penn State commit now takes over the No. 1 spot at 138 over the U20 World champion.
Why it matters: Anderson's national No. 1 claim at 138 is gone, and Mangano's weight for the season is now a question.
- Our take: watch where Mangano settles, 138 or 144

Why it matters: The top spot at 144 stays with the Ohio State commit, decided by a control call nobody agrees on.
