7. Burwell
8. Howells-Dodge
9. Arapahoe

Biggest move is by Ravenna. They not only do they have depth for a solid dual team, but they
have some good individuals to score points at the state tournament. Neligh is dropping out
with the current absences of Rudolf.

Howells-Dodge enters the ratings after defeating preseason #5 Pender. Alma defeated
preseason #9 Maxwell moving them to #9. Twin Loup moved up three spots by the departure
of Maxwell and Bridgeport. Bridgeport falls from the ratings by going 1-2 in opening duals.
Burwell and Winside are contenders to enter the ratings both starting 3-0. We will have to see

3. Tristian Olson, Anselmo-Merna
4. Robert Aschoff, Osmond
5. Carter Brandyberry, Alma
6. Wyatt Heesel, Maxwell

113
1. Creel Weber, Hemingford
2. Nolan Osborn, Twin Loup
3. Garrett Wedemeyer, Ravenna
4. Gatlin Krepela, Pleasanton
5. Reece Kocian, East Butler
6. Triston Wells, Thayer Central
This weight class seems to be deep in talent. The convincing defeat of previous #1 Kocian by
freshman Krepela moved guys around. Wedemeyer had a close win over Krueger, but then was
dominated by Osborn. Thus, the justification for seeds 2, 3 and 4. Krueger drops out after a
loss to Padmos of SEM.
120
1. Lane Bohac, East Butler
2. Jacob Fox, Axtell
3. Eli Paxton, Mullen
4. Dayton Gipe, Sandhills Valley
5. Jacoby Mann, Winside
6. Braxton Siebrandt, Wisner-Pilger
We are rating Fox at this weight because it sounds like he will end up here. Paxton got a win
over previous #1 Gipe. Beckman is staying up at 126, so we moved him out and inserted 13-1
Siebrandt.

3. Luke Polivka, East Butler
4. Carter Beckman Elgin/Pope John

Kohl wrestle for the first time this year showing he will be at this weight. Beckman knocks
Mosel out of the ratings.

2. Aiden Kuester, Neligh-Oakdale
3. Triston Stearns, Brady
4. Kolby Welling, Crawford
5. Slate Micheel, Twin Loup
6. Alek Molzahn, Alma
Belina defeats Kuester in OT to take over the #1 spot. Welling has been wrestling up at 182, but
bodyfat tested close to 170 so we think he will wrestle 170 after Christmas. Alek Molzahn
defeated previous #6 Bryner 6-0, then Micheel defeats Molzahn.
182
1. Jestin Bayer, Howells-Dodge
2. Chase Pawloski, Pleasanton
3. Kolby Larson, Burwell
4. Cooper Slingsby, Ansley/Litchfield
5. Brett Bridger, Fullerton
6. Julien Grindle, Cambridge
Bayer defeated Pawloski 1-0 and Bridger 4-0. Pawloski beat Micheel 5-3. Looks like a weight
class that could have different winners each week. Who will separate themselves at the end?
195
1. Reece Zutavern, Sandhills/Thedfor
2. Alex Gideon, Burwell
3. Colton Thiele, Summerlan
4. Mason Topp, Winside
5. Justin Scholls, North Platte St. Pat’s

Miller enters at #6 after pinning Woodward but will be behind Scholls from and early season
loss.

Kade Bottorf to solidify his position and beat Shuler.
