Five NAIA qualifiers & one All American and every one of them is back. Looks to be a good season for the Argonauts.
| 133 lbs Joey Avila |
After finishing one match shy of NAIA All American honors as a sophomore in 2021, Joey Avila went a disappointing 1-2 at last year's national tournament. He earned NJCAA All American honors for Southwestern Oregon before coming to Providence. He will look to earn NAIA All American honors this season.
| 141 lbs Caleb Birdwell |
Caleb Birdwell fell short of NAIA qualification last season as a freshman after placing 5th at the Cascade Collegiate Conference (CCC) tournament. I think he'll qualify from here on out as the four time Montana High School state finalist knows how to win.
| 165 lbs Jordan Komac |
After winning a CCC title in 2020 as a freshman, Komac finished 4th last season. The two time NAIA qualifier will look to win a second conference title this season.
| 184 lbs Hayden Schrull |
Thus far in his career Hayden Schrull has been a two time CCC runner-up. As he enters his junior season he will look to once again make the conference finals but this time leave the tournament with gold, rather than silver.
| 184 lbs Alan Badley |
The Washington native was a regional champion for North Idaho before becoming an Argo. Last season he qualified for his first trip to the NAIA championships & will look for a second trip this season.
| HWT K.C. Buday |
From right there in Great Falls, K.C. Buday has been the star of the Argos squad and will continue to do so this season. A CCC champion & 7th in the NAIA's last season, he will look to win another conference title & add another All American plaque to his collection.
