2022-23 Wisconsin High School Rankings

285 pounds

During the last set of rankings, we mentioned three of the top six guys would meet at one Division 1 sectional, which meant at least one would not take the mat in Madison. Unfortunately, it was the University of Wisconsin football commit Nolan Vils, who was the first non-qualifier at 285 as #3 Empey and #5 Mankowski advanced. Those guys will also have to deal with recent Penn State commit Cole Mirasola on the road to gold. Division 2 puts in four ranked guys at Heavyweight, which will mean that every match will be an absolute scrap. Division 3 sees #8 Morales and #10 Gratz trading spots right before state, without visiting each other since the last ranking, which means that it could come down to who feels the best this weekend. 

Is there a result we might have missed? A college commitment or weight change we didn’t catch? Let us know by emailing us at rankings@flowrestling.tv and include Wisconsin HS rankings in the subject line.
