What's this?

Carlton Haselrig won 6. Some DII and some DI though.


Per Wikipedia:

"He would finish in third place at the NCAA Division II meet his freshman year in 1986, then go on to win both the Division I and Division II titles in his sophomore, junior and senior seasons, to become the only wrestler in history to win more than four NCAA titles.

Before 1990, the Divisions II and III individual champions earned bids to the Division I championships, allowing Haselrig the chance to win both titles. After Haselrig’s run of NCAA titles, the Division I Wrestling Committee voted to rescind the bids to the Division II and III champions. As a result, Haselrig’s feat cannot be matched unless the rule is changed again"

Also, played for the Steelers.

Something interesting about the guy: he won a (PA) state championship for a school (Greater Johnstown) that didn't have a wrestling program at the time, and was drafted into the NFL from a school (Pitt-Johnstown) that didn't have a football program at the time. Unreal.
