2019-20 Pennsylvania High School Rankings - AAA

PIAA: AAA 182-Pounds

There’s a WPIAL battle we’ll look to see a few times this year as Nijenhuis and Stout are at the top of this class. Nijenhuis jumps up to 182, and fresh off a Super 32 title, he holds the top spot here. We did not have the chance to see this battle there as Stout did not wrestle, but he is a close second here, finishing silver in Hershey at this weight last year. An interesting note here is that we saw another WPIAL guy, Ryan Weinzen (Norwin), drop to this weight after a state appearance at 220 last year, and he has been impressive. He is a monster and welcomes himself to the top eight here.

I hope you enjoy reading and critiquing the 2019-20 first official rankings for PA. This is the post-preseason, pre-regular season rankings. With results compiled from most of the offseason and preseason tournaments, we were able to have a more accurate and up to date ranking to reflect the upcoming season. With just under a month until the opening weekend of competition, excitement is mounting across the state. Once again, enjoy and please let me know if there are any questions/comments and I’ll be happy to interact with feedback/changes.
