NSWCA Class B Tournament Rankings
1. Hastings
2. Omaha Skutt Catholic
3. Bennington
4. Arlington
5. Gering
6. Wahoo
7. Beatrice
8. Aurora
9. Central City
10. Northwest
COMMENTS: Hastings remains number 1 since Lazure is out, but Skutt is not far behind. If anyone on Hastings team slips up Skutt could overtake them. Bennington stays at 3. Arlington is at number 4 on the strength of their individuals. The next three Gering, Wahoo, and Beatrice are so close they flipped but all stay in number 5 thru 7. Ralston and Adams Central drops out and makes room for Aurora to come in at number 8. Aurora has been surging towards the end of the season. Central City also joined the top 10 and have been improving throughout the season. Northwest stays a strong top 10 team at number 10 with a potential to finish higher. Don’t sleep on Pierce, they are on the cusp of the top 10 and have been underrated all year (and may still be). As they have shown at the State Duals, they are not intimidated by anyone.

COMMENTS: With Chavez back at 113 that puts him at #1. McKee appears to have moved up to 120. This may be the most wide-open weight class for an individual to win it. Any one of the top 6 individuals can win this weight class.

3. Landon Weidner, Hastings
4. Kaleb Eliker, York

220
1. Grady Griess, Northwest
2. Garett Menke, Bennington
3. Dylan Meyer, Norris
4. Jacob Ludwig, Ashland-Greenwood
5. Dylan Kuehler, Pierce
6. Austin Rollman, Columbus Lakeview
COMMENTS: Kavulak has not wrestled since before Christmas so I assume he is out. The top 3 remain the same but it is a mess after that. We have a mix of wrestlers beating each other that makes it difficult to determine who is ahead of who. That means there are several wrestlers capable of earning a medal here. Rodriguez, Hume, and Deckert are all contenders.
285
1. Remmington Gay, Arlington
2. Mike Leatherdale, Wayne
3. Neil Hartman, Concordia/DC West
4. Alfredo Valquier, Nebraska City
5. David Hernandez, Ralston
6. Brady Soukup, Blair
COMMENTS: Leatherdale beat Hartman, so they traded spaces. Otherwise everyone else remained the same.
