Hunt, who is ranked fourth in Region 2 at 141 pounds in the NWCA preseason coaches rankings, moved up to compete in the 149-pound weight class. He advanced to the championship final at the Ithaca Invitational. Hunt began his season with a 4-1 record, securing bonus-point victories that included two first-period falls, a first-period technical fall, and a second-period fall. These performances earned him a team-high score of 21.5 points and secured his place in the championship bout. His sole defeat came from Elijah Cyr of Castleton, who is ranked fifth in Region 1 at 149 pounds, with a close decision of 17-15.
This marks Hunt's second time receiving the Wrestler of the Week award; he previously received this honor on January 22, 2024.
