    Four nationally ranked teams anchor Gardner Edgerton Invitational on Saturday

    Saturday marks the first major in-season event for all the teams in this 16-team field. Schools from six different states will convene at Gardner Edgerton High School in Kansas for the annual pool-to-bracket event. Competition will start with four pools of ideally four wrestlers each, with the wrestlers earning the same place in pool competition paired up for a semifinal and then final match.

    Four of the teams in this field are nationally ranked -- No. 12 Broken Arrow (Okla.), No. 14 Southeast Polk (Iowa), No. 20 Allen (Texas), and No. 47 Goddard (Kansas). Broken Arrow will be without the back half of their starting lineup due to advancing to the state final in football on Friday night, while Allen will be without a few starters (not sure which ones) due to their football team playing a state playoff game this weekend.
