Looks to be a pretty competitive season for the Red Dragons this season as two of their four NCAA Division III qualifiers return with a potential to once again crown four qualifiers this year. Gone is two time qualifier Demitreus Henry who took 8th place in the nation as well as qualifier Brian Torres.
| 125 lbs Cody Merwin |
For good reason Cody Merwin was crowned rookie of the year last season for the Dragons. The sophomore put together a 23-7 record coming within one match shy of qualifying for the NCAA Division III championships in his first try when he finished 4th at the Mideast Regional.
| 133 lbs J.C. Cardenas |
Winning a Mideast Regional Title last season on a 17-5 record, Jayden Cardenas will look to win another championship this year.
| 141 lbs Ryan Burgbacher |
Another Red Dragon that came within a match of NCAA Division III qualification last season was Ryan Burgbacher who finished the year on an 11-5 record.
| 149 lbs Chandler Merwin |
Two time NCAA Division III qualifier Chandler Merwin has twice made the Mideast Regional finals finishing as the runner-up in 2020 and as the champion this past season. With tough backup Kyle Klien pushing him in the room, he will look to have another outstanding season after having gone 30-7 last year.
