Wrestling is both an individual sport and a team sport.


The committee which selects the National Girls High School Rankings for individual athletes would also like to identify and recognize the best girls high school teams in the nation.


At the end of the last few seasons, the committee, which includes representation from USA Wrestling, FloWrestling and the National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum, has selected a national high school team ranking. They would like to do this more frequently.


This year, with your help, the goal is to publish an early season ranking in late December or early January. Here is how you can help.


If you believe that your team, or a team from your state, deserves to be ranked, please send in the following information:

1) Contact information for the head coach of the girls team at that school

2) The team’s projected starting lineup, with result information on the expected starters and their year in school (senior, junior, sophomore, freshman, etc.)

3) The team’s schedule for the year

4) Any other supporting data which can assist in the evaluation process

5) A list of the best in-season girls high school wrestling tournaments in your area

Finishing in the Top Ten in 2021-22 were No. 1 Wyoming Seminary (Pa.), No. 2 Toppenish (Wash.), No. 3 SLAM Academy (Nev.), No. 4 Marina (Calif.) and No. 5 Waverly-Shell Rock (Iowa), No. 6 Allen (Texas), No. 7 Lebanon (Mo.), No. 8 Amarillo Caprock (Texas), No. 9 Moanalua (Hawaii) and No. 10 Orlando Freedom (Fla.).

This is a new season!!! Should your team be ranked this year?
