As of now, the tournament is expected to feature top ranked wrestlers Kurt McHenry (106), Robert Howard (120), Jacori Teemer (138), David Carr (160), and Michael Beard (195). Also coming are No. 2s Julian Tagg (113), Pat Glory (120), Joey Silva (138) and Ryan Karoly (182).

Other Top-5 guys include Nick Raimo (No. 3 at 126), Julian Chlebove (No. 3 at 132), Mitch Moore (No. 3 at 138), Sammy Sasso (No. 3 at 145), Shane Griffith (No. 3 at 160), Julian Ramirez (No. 3 at 170), Ryan Anderson (No. 4 at 126), Malcolm Robinson (No. 4 at 138), and Erich Byelick (No. 4 at 170).

Traditional powerhouses Blair Academy, Lake Highland Prep, Malvern Prep, Bergen Catholic, Massillon Perry and Brecksville will all be in attendance, as well as each of the top five teams from last season's Pennsylvania AAA state tournament.

Most notably, St. Paris Graham will be making the trip to Newark. Coach Jeff Jordan rarely allows the Falcons to leave Ohio, even for out-of-season competitions. The last time they left the state for a team event was The Clash in 2011, and the last individual tournament was Beast back in 2005.
