If wrestling is a business, then business is looking good in Great Falls, Montana. The Argos return 9 of 11 NAIA qualifiers from last season, plus I believe an extremely good wrestler coming off of redshirt.
Gone is Kobi Johnson who finished off his collegiate career 2nd & 3rd in the Cascade Collegiate Conference (CCC)
Also gone is All-American Ethan DeRoche, who finished off his career 8th in the NAIA nation.

| 125 Boden Banta |
The Idaho native was 4th in the CCC last season.
 |
| 133 Blake Woolsey |
Blake Woolsey was also 4th in the CCC last year.
 |
| 149 Cade White |
Cade White was a Wildcard qualifier to the NAIA championships last year.
 |
| 157 Pig Hobbs |
I do a pretty good job of record keeping, but I'm not sure if Pig Hobbs has placed 5th at the NAIA's twice, & he'll be going for his third All-American honor, or if he's placed 5th three times, and he'll be going for his fourth All-American honor. Either way, huge accomplishment he's going for this season. He was 2nd at the CCC last year.
 |
| 157 Irish Furthmyre |
Irish Furthmyre was 3rd at the CCC last season.
 |
| 165 Jalen Vladic |
4th-4th-3rd thus far in the CCC & one match shy of being an NAIA All-American last season, Jalen Vladic will look to make the CCC finals this season & find his way onto the big award stand come March.
 |
| 165 Blaze Sumiye |
Like Jalen Vladic, Blaze Sumiye will be looking for a top 8 finish in the NAIA nation, after finishing top 12 a year ago. Thus far he's been 4th twice at the CCC.
 |
| 174 Brady Ellison |
Brady Ellison was 6th at the CCC last season.
 |
| 184 Noah Poe-Hatten |
NPH took a 3rd place showing at the CCC last season.
 |
| 184 Sawyer Hobbs |
Now I'm not 100% positive, but I believe Sawyer Hobbs will be back in action this year as well. Like brother Pig, Hobbs has been 5th a couple of times in the NAIA nation. He's also 1st-1st-2nd within the CCC.
