A lot of good things continue to happen in Pella, Iowa as the Dutch continue to be much in both the ultra competitive Regional VI & overall NCAA Division III. Central put 9 out of 10 wrestlers on the award stand at Regional VI last year & sent three of them to the national tournament, with two bringing home some hardware...including some gold!
6 or 7 of the 9 return & as now I'm treating it like 7. The eligibility of one wrestler, I am not sure of at the moment this was written.
100 career wins, three trips to the NCAA DIII tournament & back-to-back All-American honors, we say goodbye to Pierre Baldwin. Representing the red & white, he earned 6th & 3rd place D3 finishes, going 2nd-1st-3rd in Regional VI.
Sam West also had a great career for the Dutch. 6th-4th-3rd at Regional VI, he ended his career an NCAA D3 national qualifier.

| 125 Carter West |
One of the things I love about Central wrestling is that they get the job done with a lot of local talent. I competed against West Burlington Notre Dame a handful of times back in my day, and how cool it is to see their wrestlers succeeding at a higher level. West was one match shy of being an NCAA D3 qualifier last year, 4th at Regional VI.

| 133 C.J. Davis |
Another rep of WBND, CJ Davis won 17 matches this past season, placing 7th at Regional VI.
 |
| 149 Cade Siebrecht |
I know for an absolute fact that the Dutch want Cade Siebrecht back this season, but I'm not 100% positive if he has any eligibility left of not. Pretty confusing. He went 29-1 last year, his only loss in the Auggie Invite finals. Other than that, this dude collected a lot of gold. Including a Regional VI title & an NCAA D3 title!

| 157 Christian Stanek |
The Cedar Rapids Xavier standout finished one match shy of NCAA DIII qualification last year, 4th at Regional VI.

| 165 Shane Hanford |
Another Iowa boy, this one from West Marshall. Shane Hanford finished 7th at Regional VI.

| 184 Cole Martin |
