I have two more top Kansas high school recruits to announce this morning who are both going to wrestle at two of our fine Kansas universities that offer wrestling programs.

Benny Armstrong of Andale High School will be wrestling at Fort Hays State University
Benny Armstrong was a 4 time state placer. 4th as a Freshman 2006, 3rd as a Sophomore in 2007, 2nd as a Junior in 2009, 2nd as a senior in 2010.
Projected weight in college will be 165/174.
Benny also finished the 2010 season ranked No. 3 at 171, in Eric Johnson's (Chief Renegade) Kansas All Class Ranking.

Lorenzo Serna of Emporia High School will be wrestling next year for Newman University. Lorenzo was a 285 Weight Class State Champion in 2009 and he was third place at state this year in 2010. Lorenzo ended the season ranked No. 5 at 285, in Eric Johnson's (Chief Renegade) Kansas All Class Ranking. Lorenzo was a major part in Emporia High School's two team state championships in 2009 and 2010.

Please let me know if any of the above information is incorrect and needs to be changed or if any additions or deletions need to be made to the above list. On additions it helps if I receive a confirmation by posting or private message from the wrestler, a parent, high school coach or college coach. Also it helps if I can get any accomplishments like state championships, state placing or qualifying, league titles so I can make special mention of that in the announcement with the listing. A link to a newspaper article of the signing is also a good confirmation source. Thank you.
