2023-24 high school individual state champions list, as of December 18, starting with Alaska

Once again, USA Wrestling will publish regular updates on the 2023-24 state high school champions for both boys and girls.

Winning a state high school title is an amazing achievement for a high school student-athlete. We will post the champions from official state high school championships for boys, as well as the girls who have won official state high school titles, as well as the recognized state competitions which are not run by their state high school association. We will also post the team champions at the state level as available. As available, we will include the state champion’s year in school and final record.

The 2023-24 state championships season started this weekend, with the first event of the year, the Alaska State Championships for boys and girls in Anchorage.

Below are the state champions from Alaska, the first state tournament of the season. State championship events will begin again in early 2024, and will be updated on a weekly basis until the state championship season has been completed.
