The past five years has not been kind to Junior Greco-Roman wrestlers from Indiana, but this year could be different with a solid Greco-Roman team looking to capture top honors at Fargo. Leading the way are two former All-Americans in last year's runner-up Drake Stein and past Cadet All-American Sean Mappes. Mappes went undefeated in Greco-Roman at the Junior Duals just a few short weeks ago and will look to ride that momentum into Fargo. Stein had a few hiccups at the Junior Duals and will look to rebound with another great tournament. Others to watch include a pair of Perry Meridian Falcons, Jared McKinley and Kirk Johnson. Both have had great offseasons and have won matches in the past at Fargo. Others to watch include a trio of Roadrunners in Travis Barroquillo, Reece Lefever and Conner Lefever. Reece(the good looking twin according to him) Lefever came one match from placing last year in Greco and also placed second at the Central Regionals up a weight class while Conner Lefever got 3rd in Greco at Central Regionals this past year. Barroquillo gave last year's runner-up a great match in the early rounds last year and could be a sleeper All-American for Indiana.
