The Girls Grade 9-12 field for the 2022 Brian Keck Memorial Preseason Nationals is extremely talented, with 61 nationally ranked high school athletes in the pre-registration. The competition will be held on Sunday, October 30.

Among the nationally ranked athletes entered are No. 1 ranked Sabrina Nauss of Michigan (180) and Janida Garcia of Colorado (132), plus three No. 2 ranked stars, Valarie Solorio of Florida (100), Valerie Hamilton of Illinois (117) and Persaeus Gomez of Colorado (117).

Nauss is one of the four returning champions in the field, joined by Angelia Cassioppi of Illinois (112), Angelina Vargas of Missouri (112) and Ashlyn Goodwin of Kansas (144). Cassioppi was the champion at 100 pounds last year and is moving up in weight. The other three are competing at the same weight class that they won last year.

This event will surely impact the next National Girls High School rankings, which will be released in November.

Among the entries are four champions from Fargo last summer, Junior National champions Janida Garcia (132) and Sabrina Nauss (180), plus 16U National champions Katey Valdez of Colorado (100), Persaeus Gomez of Colorado (122) as well as Nauss.

Two weight classes have eight ranked athletes in the field, 112 pounds and 122 pounds.

The entire competition will be live on FloWrestling
