Five Connecticut girls are ranked in the preseason national girls high school rankings as developed by the National Wrestling Hall of Fame, USA Wrestling and FloWrestling.
Pomperaug High junior Juliana Morris is ranked No. 3 at 122 pounds while Bristol Eastern senior Ella Nichols is ranked No. 4 at 152 pounds. Plainville senior Dakota Marie Dinelli is ranked No. 10 at 152 pounds.
Freshman Calli Gilchrist is ranked No. 13 at 112 pounds while junior Camryn Brown of Amity-Woodbridge is ranked No. 18 at 122 pounds.
Four girls earned All-American honors at the recent USA Wrestling Junior and 16U national championships tournament in Fargo, North Dakota in July. Nichols finished fourth in Junior women’s freestyle at 152 while Morris was second in 16U women’s freestyle at 122 pounds. Gilchrist was third at 112 in women’s freestyle in the 16U division while Brown was seventh in 16U women’s freestyle at 122 pounds.
The national ranking evaluates all girls in grades 8-12. With the new season comes nine new No. 1 wrestlers in the rankings. They include Cecilia Williams of Michigan (112), Katie Gomez of California (117), Shelby Moore of Washington (122), Savannah Cosme of Colorado (127), Hanna Errthum of Wisconsin (132), Grace Stem of Pennsylvania (144), Amit Elor of California (152), Sabrina Nauss of Michigan (180) and Sam Calkins of California (200).
Five wrestlers who finished last season ranked No. 1 have returned and start the new season in the No. 1 spot again: Ava Ward of Missouri (100), Audrey Jimenez of Arizona (106), Korina Blades of Illinois (138), Kylie Welker of Wisconain (164) and Eliana Bommarito of Michigan (225).
The next ranking will be in November, after a series of major preseason events, including FloWrestling’s Who’s No. 1 event, the USA Wrestling Preseason Nationals, the Super 32 Classic, and other large early season competitions.
Coaches, parents and athletes are encouraged to provide information about specific athletes and their achievements throughout the year for the committee to consider. If they have information on specific girls who should be considered for ranking or updates on their achievements, please send it by email to [email protected].
