Here is a list of 10 common and effective moves often seen in NCAA wrestling:

Single Leg Takedown: This involves grabbing one of your opponent's legs and driving through to take them down to the mat.
Double Leg Takedown: Similar to a single leg, but you grab both of your opponent's legs and drive through to take them down.
High Crotch: A variation of the single leg where you shoot in on your opponent's leg, but instead of grabbing the leg, you secure the thigh and hip for control.
Ankle Pick: This move involves grabbing your opponent's ankle and quickly pulling it towards you to destabilize them and create an opening for a takedown.
Fireman's Carry: In this move, you wrap your arm around your opponent's neck and grab their opposite arm, then lift and throw them over your back.
Headlock: A classic move where you secure your opponent's head and arm, then use leverage to take them down to the mat.
Granby Roll: This defensive move is used to escape from the bottom position. It involves rolling over your shoulder to create space and possibly reverse your opponent.
Switch: Another bottom position move, where you quickly change your position relative to your opponent to gain control or escape.
Crab Ride: This is a top position move where you secure control of your opponent's hips and legs, often leading to back exposure or a turn for points.
Pinning Combination: While not a single move, pinning combinations such as tilts, cradles, and stack moves are essential for securing a pin and winning the match.

These moves vary in complexity and effectiveness depending on the wrestler's skill level and their opponent's style. Masters of these techniques often combine them seamlessly to outmaneuver and defeat their opponents.tent
