The National Prep Wrestling Rankings Drop Late And the Shakeups Are Bigger Than Ever

With the National Prep Tournament just three weeks away, expanded weight classes and key results from Lake Highland Prep vs. Malvern Prep reshape the latest rankings landscape.

The National Prep Rankings love getting dropped in the middle of the night. The release was a day later this week to allow results from Friday’s Lake Highland Prep versus Malvern Prep wrestling dual, won by Lake Highland, to be applied to this update.

Fourth Update Comes With Big Changes

This is the fourth update to these, and the biggest changes come in the form of some weight classes expanding to as many as 20 ranked in a weight. Of course, there were plenty of results that needed to be factored in as well as new lineup information.

Believe it or not, the National Prep Tournament, the Grand Finale for the prep schools, is just three weeks away. Lehigh University’s Stabler Arena will be the setting on February 20th and 21st.

Qualifiers Take Place in Early February

Some will have their qualifiers in the first week of February, others like Maryland will have their conference tournaments that week and then their Prep Qualifier the following week. Most of the conference and league tournaments hold no bearing on the tournament.

For the National Prep Tournament, the qualifier is what dictates weight classes. Wrestlers can test the waters at a different weight for the conference, but what they choose for the qualifier is where they must stay.

As we come down the stretch, High School on SI will keep releasing these and will also keep you informed of any important developments that happen between now and then. We will also run the seeds once they are finalized the week of the tournament.
