Frazier vs. Knox and Goin vs. Sealey are two matches that I think are going to be close. I also think that Gunner Henry is ready to be in the top 20 and want to see how he stacks up against Jude Correa. Similarly, Landon Hawkins has been a rising star and I think Landon Robideau will be a great indicator as to how elite he is going to be in the coming years.

It’s commonly known among Indiana wrestling fans that Indiana wrestlers are not very respected when it comes to national rankings. The Elite 8 Duals is a great opportunity to change that. This weekend, a squad of 15 of Indiana’s best will battle against some of the best that the country has to offer, with at least one nationally ranked competitor in every weight class, and as many as eight or nine in some weight classes. This weekend will be a great chance to show the rest of the country the talent of Indiana wrestling. That being said, I thought that I would go through and look up the nationally ranked competition in every weight class, so that you all could know the potential matchups to look forward to this weekend. Of course, our guys won’t get to wrestle every wrestler, but depending on our day one performance, each guy will likely wrestle at least a couple nationally ranked foes (aside from the weight classes with only one or two nationally ranked guys, which isn’t a lot of weight classes). 100: Nate Rioux, #20 Lincoln Sledzianowski 106: Revin Dickman, #5 Dominic Munaretto, #18 Colyn Limbert 113: Gavin Jendreas, #11 Christopher Kiser, #16 (at 106) Gage Singleton, #16 Cameron Stinson, #16 (at 120) Bo Bassett 120: Toby Billerman, #7 (at 113) Nathan Desmond, #7 Kael Lauridsen, #14 Gauge Botero, #14 (at 126) Thomas Verrette, #18 Cooper Hilton, #20 Jackson Blum 126: #17 Logan Frazier, #1 Jax Forrest, #4 Luke Stanich, #6 Drew Gorman, #10 Dillon Campbell, #11 Brady Roark, #12 Tyler Knox, #17 (at 120) Sam Herring 132: Landon Hawkins, #4 Grigor Cholakyan, #13 Landon Robideau, #18 William Baysinger, #20 Brandon Cannon 138: Cheaney Schoeff, #8 Vince Bouzakis, #11 Cameron Catrabone, #13 Tyler Vazquez, #17 Matthew Repos 145: Anthony Bahl, #3 Joel Adams, #6 (at 138) Pierson Manville, #6 Dylan Gilcher, #17 Weston Dalton, #18 Collin Dupill, #18 (at 152) Nick Kunstek 152: Bryce Lowery, #2 Ladarion Lockett, #6 Alessio Perentin, #8 Jeremiah Price, #9 Kody Routledge, #10 Kael Voinovich 160: Sammy Goin, #2 Joseph Sealey, #4 Ethan Stiles, #18 Dagen Condomitti 170: Delaney Ruhlman, #3 Lorenzo Norman, #14 Dylan Newsome 180: Orlando Cruz, #1 Brayden Thompson, #4 Aeoden Sinclair, #5 Gabe Arnold, #8 Harvey Ludington, #10 Timothy McDonnell 195: Gunner Henry, #3 Hayden Walters, #4 Jude Correa, #6 AJ Heeg, #7 Remy Cotton, #9 Michael Dellagatta, #15 Hoke Hogan, #18 Luke Cochran, #19 Mark Marin, #20 Brian Burburija 220: Devin Kendrex, #1 Christian Carroll, #15 Sameul Murphy, #17 AJ Fricchione, #19 Michael Murillo 285: Trey Decknard, #6 Emmanuel Ulrich, #7 Matthew Moore, #8 Parker Farrell, #16 Aidan Fockler There’s no telling how day one will go for us, and the competition that Indiana Outlaws will compete against on day two will depend on how the first day goes, but these are the guaranteed (unless weights are shuffled around or injury strikes) matchups that will go down day one: Indiana Outlaws vs. Team Oklahoma: Gavin Jendreas vs. #11 Christopher Kiser #17 Logan Frazier vs. #17 (at 120) Sam Herring Bryce Lowery vs. #10 Kael Voinovich Indiana Outlaws vs. Minion Legends Toby Billerman vs. #18 Cooper Hilton #17 Logan Frazier vs. #6 Drew Gorman Anthony Bahl vs. #6 Dylan Glicher Orlando Cruz vs. #1 Brayden Thompson *or* #5 Gabe Arnold Gunner Henry vs. #15 Hoke Hogan *or* #18 Luke Cochran Devin Kendrex vs. #1 Christian Carroll Indiana Outlaws vs. Spartan RTC Elite Gavin Jendreas vs. #16 Cameron Stinson Toby Billerman vs. #7 Nathan Desmond #17 Logan Frazier vs. #12 Tyler Knox Landon Hawkins vs. #13 Landon Robideau Cheaney Schoeff vs. #13 Tyler Vazquez Anthony Bahl vs. #6 Pierson Manville Bryce Lowery vs. #6 Alessio Perentin Sam Goin vs. #2 Joseph Sealey *or* Ransom Rudolph Delaney Ruhlman vs. #3 Lorenzo Norman Gunner Henry vs. #4 Jude Correa Trey Decknard vs. #8 Parker Farrell Indiana Outlaws vs. Team Empire Gunner Henry vs. #19 Mark Marin Devin Kendrex vs. #19 Michael Murillo

That's that Coach Fleeger hand fighting right there. Dangerous stuff, I tell ya...

Kendrex is coming off an IHPO runner-up finish and a bloodround performance at Fargo this summer. I've wrestled with him a decent bit this summer and seen the work he's been putting in. 220 is in good hands.

Always appreciate the time, effort, and insight that you put into these writeups.

Yeah that match was crazy. The ref got put in a bad position on that last stall call, I would have loved to see that match go into OT.

I would like to see Limbert again in Action. Horn at IHPO gave him all he could handle . I would like to see a rematch soon

Pretty sure he is also a CIA guy, so maybe Eppert is the one that got him right. All jokes aside it is cool to see him supplement his training all over the state. He has definitely put the work in.

Might be the most improved wrestler that made it to state last year. His hand fighting and hi-c are top notch.

Exactly, that is awesome of Sam! Glad he is repping the Outlaws.

Looking forward to our guy Gunner Henry vs. #15 Hoke Hogan Gunner is ready to break through

Gotta love Hoke Hogan

What are the Matches you're really looking forward too out of this day one batch?
