The PIAA Individual State Championships aren’t for another two weeks, and most regional tournaments still have to go down, but we’re too excited to wait until next week to start talking about it. Here are some of the top juniors to keep an eye on in Hershey.

2020 PIAA Individual State Wrestling Championship

March 5-7 | Live on FLO

Brett Ungar, 113 (Notre Dame)

• Junior Big Board #36

• #4 in the country at 113

• Ungar is 39-2. His two losses are to P4P #14 Stevo Poulin and the next guy on this list, Gary Steen. You can watch that match HERE. However, Ungar later avenged that loss at the team state championships. You can watch that match HERE. 

Gary Steen, 113 (Reynolds)

• Junior Big Board #12

• #5 in the country at 113

• 2018 State champ, 2019 State 3rd

• Pitt commit

• The Ungar loss is Steen’s only loss this season. He won Ironman and Powerade this year. Yeah, he’s good.

Trey Kibe, 170 (Mifflin County)

• Junior Big Board #13

• #2 in the country at 170

• 2019 State champ

• Penn State commit

• Trey Kibe will be one headlining the incredibly loaded AAA 170 lbs. bracket.

Jagger Condomitti, 145 (Northampton)

• Junior Big Board #16

• #5 in the country at 145

• 2019 State 4th

• Nebraska commit

Wyatt Henson, 138 (Waynesburg)

• Junior Big Board #18

• #11 in the country at 138

• 2018 State 5th

• Iowa commit

• The son of Sammy Henson, Wyatt is a bull just like his dad. He wrestles a hard and fast style and will fight right in at Iowa.

Lenny Pinto, 170 (Stroudsburg)

• Junior Big Board #19

• #14 in the country at 170

• 2019 State 3rd

• Nebraska commit

• Lenny Pinto has steadily progressed so far throughout his high school career. He put that progression on display to the nation when he won Fargo this past offseason.

Nate Schon, 220 (Selinsgrove)

• Junior Big Board #20

• #8 in the country at 220

• 2019 state champion

• Returning state champ and 32-0 with 27 pins on the season going into Regionals.

Alejandro Herrera-Rondon, 132 (Seneca Valley)

• #14 in the country at 132

• 2018 and 2019 State champ

• Oklahoma commit

• Alejandro Herrera was able to avenge two losses (Carter Dibert and Kurtis Phipps) in his postseason run as a freshman. Can he do it again and beat Kenny Herrmann and Gabe Willochell to become a three-timer?

Nathan Higley, 145 (Sullivan County)

• 2018 State 6th

• 2019 state qualifier

• Nathan Higley might be a little under the radar for people outside of PA, but he’s 33-0 this season and just beat Junior Big Board #45 and #12 nationally at 145 Avery Bassett 8-4 at Districts.
