It’s the home stretch. After this weekend, state champions will be crowned, and, then, it's the big show: New Englands.
This set of rankings will be the FINAL Schwartz Report rankings for the season. The next set will be an UNOFFICIAL seeding of the New England tournament by The Schwartz Report and will ONLY INCLUDE WRESTLERS THAT QUALIFIED.
These rankings currently include wrestlers that made it all the way to their final state tournament. Note that Vermont and Division 1 schools in Rhode Island did NOT participate in any divisional/class state tournaments this past weekend.
Here is a reminder of who from this upcoming weekend will make it to New Englands.
1st-7th= MA
1st-5th=CT
1st-3rd=ME, NH, RI, VT
