JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Ancilla 2026-2027

 




The Chargers qualified Andy Warren to the NJCAA championships last year, who had a 4th place finish at the Great Lakes District.  The Indianapolis native will return for action in '26-'27. 

JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Middlesex 2026-2027

 


I'm not even real positive if Middlesex had a wrestling program last season.  Not much information can be found on the program. The School still list wrestling as an active varsity sport.  The Colts had 6 NJCAA qualifiers in 2024. 

JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Itasca 2026-2027

 


The Vikings qualified Kody Fleck to the NJCAA national tournament last season, who took a 3rd place finish at the North Plains District.  Not sure where he's going to end up. 

JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Minnesota West 2026-2027

 


The Blue Jays only had five total wrestlers on their squad last season & three of those five qualified for the NJCAA national tournament.  I have to say I'm pretty impressed with that.  Two of the five qualifiers return.

Leif Ingebretsen


Leif Ingebretsen placed 2nd at the North Plains District

Romarion Farquharson


Another North Plains District finalist for the Blue Jays last season. 



JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Mott 2026-2027

 

As of right now, I don't know what the current situation is at Mott.  To my knowledge, they wrestled up through February 22nd, only participating in four tournaments & one dual. They did not attend their qualifier.  I've heard no bad news on a discontinuation thankfully, but there was only four members on the entire squad last season.  One of which was a sophomore. 

JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Murray State 2026-2027

 


Murray State sent three to the NJCAA national tournament, damn near crowing their first All-American in year one.

Kade Carter

The future veterinarian made history last season by becoming the Aggies first NJCAA qualifier.  5th at the South Central District. 

157
Nathan Brown



One of many talents to come out of Putnam City, Oklahoma over the last century, Nathan Brown joined Kade Carter as one of the first three to ever qualify for nationals from Murray State. 

174
Nate Jean

The Lone Star native had an outstanding South Central District, earning a 3rd place finish. The future Registered Nurse was one match shy of earning All-American honors. 


JT1Wrestle Takes A Look At Muskegon 2026-2027

 


A great year for Jayhawk wrestling as we saw all 10 varsity starters qualifier for the NJCAA championships.   Only four of those qualifiers return, but we know the likelihood of Muskegon starting a bunch of quality new freshmen is extremely high. 

No word on two-time All-American Jack Guerrero (8th & 6th in the NJCAA nation) on where he'll end up.  Not sure on Great Lakes District champs Kyron Zoet or Andrew Baldwin either. NJCAA qualifiers Darnell Mack, Zephyr Fegley, & Trevor Street all in the same boat. 

133
Colin Kuhn

The St. Louis, Missouri native finished 6th in the NJCAA nation last year, winning a Great Lakes District title & finishing 2nd at the Art Kraft Memorial. 

141
Ian Cook

A native right there in Muskegon, Ian Cook finished off his freshman campaign with a R12 NJCAA finish, collecting silver medals at both the Great Lakes District & the Art Kraft Memorial. 

184
Alex Hicks

A Great Lakes District champion, Alex Hicks finished one match shy of being an NJCAA All-American
