J. Pratt at 120 is a state qualifier moving up two weight classes, N. Lamb is a state qualifier moving up one weight class, wouldn't that give him the higher ranking and put him at sixth?

Most certainly not.

Jon Pratt won 27 matches last year. He went 2-2 at State, losing 8-4 to state champion Goldenstein and then only 4-3 to Fargo AA Josiah Seaton. He was a Frontier League champion and placed 2nd at Regionals.

Nathan Lamb went 13-11 and 0-2 at State, losing to an 8-6 Soph Ryan Brocker.

Chief, just curious how teams are ranked, I know its early in the season and it don't really matter, it's just fun to look at.
I scored the teams according to individual rankings using this criteria and I came up with something different that what is posted for teams:
1st 6pts
2nd 5pts
3rd 4pts
4th 3pts
5th 2pts
6th 1pt

I came up with:
1. Colby 23pts
2. Bonner Springs 21pts
3. Andale 19pts
T4. El Dorado 17pts
T4. Chanute 17pts
6. Buhler 15pts
7. Concordia 13pts
8. Mulvane 10pts
T9. Augusta 9pts
T9. Pittsburg 9pts

Like I said I don't know what criteria is used but this is what I came up with.

The starting point of the scoring system is much closer to an actual tournament scoring. I many tournaments the winner of a bracket should score around 20-25 pounts.

I start with:

1st - 20
2nd - 14
3rd - 10
4th - 8
5th - 5
6th - 3

Then I add in non-placing wrestlers that will likely score points.

P.S. Having just added Fiscus and keeping Drybread in the rankings, Chanute moves up considerably! I know Jordan has not wrestled yet though, so I did not add his 14 points.

Miller beat Reishick (160) at their dual this week.

Also,I believe Dylan Eck is in 11th grade.

I missed that on this update. It looks like DeMott is off to a great start!

Chief. Have the 4A rankings not been posted? The link you provided shows the Dec 6th rankings. I also went to www.kansaswrestling.org and it also shows the Dec. 6 rankings.

Thanks.

Kester has flat out struggled to start the season. Having beaten Mainus in his state bracket, I have had him above David. What has separated Miller and Mainus is the common match with Delforge from VC at the Colby duals. Delforge has been on a tear, pinning Mainus and beating Miller 9-7 in a very close match.
