North Dakota Preps

Who will be the state champs at each weight class? I will name a few of who I think will win.
Derrick Rygg-103
Andrew Grothman-189?
Kriss McCleary-215
Bob Bartz-285

Mitch Ford at whichever weight he wrestles this season.

mccleary at 215 is a given

Evan Gross, Napoleon - 135 - State champ last year
Damon Weigel, Napoleon - 145 - runner up last year

These were their weights last year. Anyone know where they are wrestling this year?

Will Ballard make 152 again this year or will he bump to 160? He's a good kid and will do well wherever he is at... Good Luck.

Chris Bahm sophmore out of Carrington will be a top dog in wrestling this yr just beat Beau Vogeli last night nice match good luck to both!

he won by injury default.......

Anthony Von Ruden from Hillsboro is another possibility.

vogeli was losing 5-4 with 36 sec in match he ws on bottom an he started acting like he ws gunna puke for the 3rd time so ref called it Bahm 1-0 Vogeli 0-1 ...Nice Call ref dont need to watch people have exuse that there losing nice call nice match bahm!!!

Everyone is forgetting Justin Solberg from Wahpeton. He is pound for pound the best wrestler in the state. He has already commited to NDSU.

hey wins a win he dominated that match the whole time in voelgli didnt get hurt her puked from probabaly cutting to much weight but thats his fault watch out for bahm at 130 or 135

I read that he missed at least part of a day of school due to illness the day before the dual so I am sure he was really sick and not just form cutting weight.

they're just saying you can't proclaim someone top dog in that weight class on one match, especially since there was mitigating circumstances

The Lisbon kid that won 103 last year
Josh Kelly-Oakes-1st last year
Beau Vogeli-Oakes-1st last year
Evan Gross-Napoleon-1st last year
Damion Weigel-Napoleon-2nd last year
Drew Moch-Linton-2nd last year
189-Nate Arnold-Ellendale/Edgeley-3rd last year
215-Kriss Mcleary-Napoleon-1st last year

Hey, not trying to hijack this thread, but is Damon Weigel by any chance related to Kevin Weigel? Kevin would be 38 or 39. I knew Kevin from Army BT in South Carolina. Thanks.

I saw Bahm wrestle tonight...i was impressed but not as much as i thought i'd be based on what i had read on here...definitely has talent though.

In a rematch of last year's state championship last night Bob Bartz from Harvey pinned Troy Jesperson from VGMS in their dual.

According to VGMS's coach, Jesperson took bartz down to his back in the first period but time ran out so it was 5-0 going into the second period when Bartz put Jesperson on his back and got the pin! Sounds like this weight could be up in the air all year.
