I tell you what. Even though the Marauders lose an outstanding HWT, they return 9 outstanding talents this season & are looking to have one of their best seasons yet in 2026-2027. There's a lot of reason to think this is going to be a blue, white & orange celebration.
Before we get to that, the outstanding HWT....
Luke Tweeton sure did do a lot for the Marauders during his career. 2nd-1st-2nd-2nd at Super Region V he made the national tournament every time he tried & he placed 8th in the D2 nation his sophomore year. 3rd at the Midwest Classic as a senior.
Now take a look at the artillery coming back....

| 125 Mason Gutenberger |
Another strong candidate for the 125 lbs varsity spot will be Mason Gutenberger. 15 wins on the season, silver at the Dakota Wesleyan Open & bronze at the Jimmie Open.

Sean Solis heads into his final season of collegiate eligibility looking to contend for a NCAA D2 national title, after finishing 3rd & 4th in the D2 nation the past two years. 1st-1st at Super Region V, the California native will look to become a three-timer there as well.

| 157 Kale Baumann |
Renner's first major test of 2026-2027 will be right in the room, as Kale Baumann a talented sophomore will also be gunning for that 157 sport. Baumann won 12 matches last season, winning titles at both the Jimmie Open & the Dakota Wesleyan Open.
