Thanks Beeson. We now have the mark to beat and it might be hard to top. Who has a streak that dates back further than Ark City?

I'm really thinking Kapaun Mt. Carmel might be a contender in this but I can't find any info on their website. Can someone with connections to Kapaun's program look into this?

How about some schools out west like Oberlin, Colby, or Scott City? What about some eastern schools like Lawrence, Manhattan, Columbus, Chanute, or any of the older Kansas City programs?


Had a feeling Ark City would be up there especially with the most team titles. Probably gonna be the longest current streak. This is interesting, and educational.

How about this stat: brought to my attention by reporter David Steinle.

Norton did not have a state finalist this year. He told me this was the first time in 17 years that Norton did not have a state finalist. I was not aware of this long run of having a finalist. So I went back and checked Norton's long list of State Placers and was amazed what I found.

Consecutive Years of State Finalist:

1995-2011 (17 Straight Years)
1990-1992 (3 years)
1965-1986 (22 Years in a Row. Amazing !)
1957-1962 (6 years in a Row.)
1942-1949 (8 years)

Can any School claim to beat the 22 year run of State Finalist by the Bluejays under Hall of Fame Coach Jake Durham's leadership.

The Colby streak is not going to put us anywhere near the top. Colby had a good streak going from 1947-1982 but did not have a placer in 1983. We started another little streak in 1984 that came to an end in 1989 when no Colby wrestlers made the medal stand. So, Colby's current streak is:

1990-Present.

Coach,
St. Francis had a state finalist from 1937-1960 (23) and 1962-1988 (26).

I had a feeling that the "Old NWKL Schools" would have other schools with similar streaks.

What about Oberlin, Hoxie, Goodland ? Come on Coaches.

Concordia's first state placer was in 1974. The program wasn't started until the 1965-66 school year. Beginning in 74 we have had a state placer every year with the exception of 1984, and yes, I was the coach.
