St. Cloud State is No. 1 in D2Wrestle.com Coaches Poll for January 2017
by D2Wrestle.com
The Huskies feature seven nationally-ranked wrestlers, led by Brett Valazquez at 125 and Austin Goergen at 285, with both student-athletes topping their weight class in the individual rankings. Notre Dame and Maryville switched spots, with the Falcons taking the two-spot over the Saints at #3. Nebraska-Kearney moved into the #4 position, with Wisconsin-Parkside making a huge leap from outside the top 25 into the #5 spot.
Joining the Rangers moving into the top 25 are Colorado State-Pueblo (21), Kutztown (22), Lindenwood (T23) and Newman (T23), while Lake Erie’s six-spot jump and Findlay’s five-spot move them the biggest movers in this edition of the Top 25, aside from Wisconsin-Parkside’s jump into the rankings.
The next ranking will be published during the last week of January.
