20+ Ranked Wrestlers Set To Battle At Grappler Fall Classic

The Grappler Fall Classic has become a staple on the national high school wrestling circuit. It's a major tune-up event before Super 32, and as such, ranked wrestlers flock to this Michigan tournament (which is held in Myrtle Beach this year as it was in 2020).

This year's GFC field includes more than 20 ranked wrestlers and features a number of potential ranked vs ranked matchups. At 112 lbs we could see #9 (106) Jackson Blum vs #19 Ethan Rivera. Two 119-pounders are ranked #5 in the country, Kyle Montaperto at 120 and Evan Tallmadge at 113. 

The 130 bracket has three ranked wrestlers in #6 (120) Anthony Santaniello, #7 (126) Vincent Robinson, and #11 (126) Braden Basile. 145 is even deeper with #5 Danny Nini, #12 Michael Kilic, #18 Jaydon Robinson, and #19 Ethan Mojena.

We could also see ranked matchups at 160 and 170. The 160 list includes #9 Jonathan Ley, #11 Domonic Baker, and #19 Gunner Filipowicz while the 171 list includes #14 Caesar Garza and #18 Kodiak Cannedy.
