Ryan Blees moved up over 20 spots after winning a Junior National freestyle title (Photo/John Sachs, Tech-Fall.com) With the conclusion of the ASICS/Vaughan Cadet and Junior National Championships, along with the AAU Junior Olympic Games, the summer offseason has come to a conclusion. On that note, the national grade rankings are being updated. Some wrestlers made a significant move up based on their performance during the offseason tournaments. Among the notable movers were Junior National freestyle champions Michael Pixley (Blue Springs, Mo.) and Ryan Blees (Bismarck, N.D.). Both wrestlers moved up over 20 positions in the Class of 2014 rankings.
All five No. 1-ranked wrestlers remain unchanged: Chance Marsteller (Kennard-Dale, Pa.) is on top of the Class of 2014, Cadet National double champion Lance Benick (Totino-Grace, Minn.) leads the Class of 2015, Junior National freestyle champion and OW Aaron Pico (St. John Bosco, Calif.) anchors the Class of 2016, Spencer Lee (Franklin Regional, Pa.) is first in the Class of 2017, while Cade Olivas (California) is the top junior high wrestler.
