Fargo aka 16U and Junior Nationals is upon us. The largest wrestling tournament in the world is set to kick off on Saturday with the women’s freestyle portion of the tournament. Last year’s version of Fargo included over 7,000 participants!
To get ready for Fargo, we’re looking at the tournament from a collegiate perspective. A recruiting perspective. Over the next few days, we’ll go conference-by-conference to look at recruits from each school who have signed up for the tournament.
Next up is the SoCon. The SoCon was represented in InterMat's Class of 2024 recruiting rankings by Campbell who came in at #22. Interestingly enough, none of the wrestlers from Campbell's massive Class of 2024 has registered for Fargo. The SoCon is a conference that continues to improve recruiting-wise as a handful of programs have hired new coaches within the last five years. That new blood has proved to be helpful on the recruiting trail.
Recruits have been grouped by team. They are listed alphabetically alongside the weight listed in USA Wrestling’s registration, the state they represent, and their graduating class. The # next to a wrestler’s name denotes their MatScouts Big Board ranking in their respective class.
We’ve sorted through six or seven thousand entries to bring you these previews, so there could be a recruit or two that slipped through the cracks. If that’s the case, please let me know. Earl@matscouts.com
Additionally, no preview or historical analysis for anything Fargo-related could be done without some assistance from Jason Bryant’s massive Fargo Guide. There’s still time to get yours!
