Major results in from the prestigious Northern Plains Regional Tournament. State tournaments this week included Virginia, Maryland, Florida, Ohio, and Michigan in both styles. Illinois held their state Greco tournament.
This weekend features the Central Regional in Indiana.
Many kids are starting to show a rise in weights, so there is a great deal of movement in the rankings.
At this time of year, weight is intriguing as it pertains to rankings. We’ll do our best to identify what weight an individual is at, and use Fargo as our final benchmark.
Also, because results are less frequent, we’ll leave the wrestler’s most recent performance listed as their credential until they compete again.
It’s a hectic time of year, with results less accessible and weights constantly fluctuating. So, feel free to write in and drop us some knowledge.
Again, we know we are far from perfect, but we do our best to stay on top of things, there are a lot of wrestlers across the nation. If you feel we are overlooking someone or are unaware of them, please send us a bio and a RESPECTFUL note as to why they should be ranked. This does not mean we will rank them, but it will give us info to follow that wrestler. You can send info to rankings@theopenmat.com
Expect our Top Prospect Rankings (for Juniors) in the next month, with an update shortly after Fargo.

Move Ryne Cokeley up to 152. He has wins this spring over Jarret Jensen (USA Folkstyle Nationals) and Joey Kielbasa (NHSA Junior Nationals). Last spring he pinned Koethe and he has never lost to Baldwin. Back at 145 he is 5-1 against Dieringer (one loss in GR at NP last year but a win over him in FS). He has never lost to Wohlfert, Roach, Benitz or Robertson having wrestled all of them before. He is training for Southern Plains but might make an appearance at the Southeastern Regional.
I really like your website. Very informative. keep up the great work.
215, Tank knowles ranked over Gwiazdowski? Thye have a head to head match win the NY kid winning.
Thanks
Tank has a state title and a longer resume. Gwiazdowski, right in the hunt, though. and can definitely move up.
Cullen Morissey was a Sr. this year
HA Off with Willie’s head..
Serious though, thanks for the heads up. Much appreciated
