149 – Michael Perez –Labette (4th); Mitch Arnold (Unranked); Mitchell Means (Unranked)...dogfight with Means probably the favorite

165 – Travis Budke-FHSU (7th in NCAA DII); John Hambleton-Labette (10th)

184- Ray Hall-Labette (11th); Tyler Gonzales (3x NCAA DII Qualifier)
197- Walker Clarke-Labette (2nd) and returning National Champ; Blake Steirt-Colby (11th)...Clarke should win this weight.
HWT - Reno Redleaf-Labette (3rd); Levi Calhoun (Baker) Ranked #10; Justin Glenn (FHSU) 19-3 on the season. Another tough weight...I'll put my money on Redleaf
