King University remains the No. 1 ranked team in the WCWA Women’s College National Rankings, released December 18.
Led by three No. 1 wrestlers and a strong performance in dual meets, Jason Moorman’s Tornado team holds the top spot heading into the last month of the women’s college season.
Archie Randall’s Oklahoma City jumps to No. 2, after being in a tie with Simon Fraser for No. 2 in the last poll. Mike Jones’ Simon Fraser team, the defending WCWA National champion, comes in at No. 3.
No. 4 Wayland Baptist and No. 5 Lindenwood remain in the same ranking as last poll. Rounding out the top 10 are a tie at No. 6 with Missouri Baptist and Campbellsville, a tie at No. 8 with Univ. of the Cumberlands and Missouri Valley College and No. 10 Waldorf College.
Three different athletes earned No. 1 individual rankings this time: Helen Maroulis of Simon Fraser (123), Rachel McFarland of Oklahoma City (130) and Jenna McLatchy of Simon Fraser (190).
Maroulis, a three-time WCWA national champion and past Senior World silver medalist, was not in the previous ranking, and neither was McFarland. McLatchy, a past national champion, was ranked No. 2 the last time.
The WCWA Women’s College National Championships are set for Missouri Baptist Univ. in St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 24-25.
