Here is a list of the wrestlers to lookout for and somewhat of an order of finish for each weight. I could be wrong on some people’s info for qualifying and placing at state. I could also be mistaken on where a few of these kids actually wrestle for since several of these schools are coop teams.

130 appears to be the toughest weight class with three kids who could place at state this year in Muller, McMichael and Wildin. It also has three returning state qualifiers and a state placer from 2007. 112 will be pretty good with the top three all having close matches this year, likely to see a few wrestlers from this weight class on the state medal stand. There are twenty-four previous state qualifiers and six previous state placers in this regional.
