Application links for all teams are in our previous post.

Update as of 2/1/2024:

Here is the most updated numbers for our Heartland Dual Teams. A few VERY important things to keep in mind! We will take two teams of Elementary and MS boys ONLY IF we have the minimum of 10-11 to make a second team. If we do not have enough to make the second team, those weight classes where there are duplicates, and those who does not make the team can still attend the tournament and get put in a pool of kids from other states to form their own competitive dual team! For Middle School criteria we will use results from MS state tournament if the kids meet in the bracket....(head to head, common opponent, placing in the bracket.) For the Elementary and MS if needed, we will use current year criteria if they do not meet at MS state tournament, or if needed we can arrange a wrestle off. In those weight classes where we currently have 3 wrestlers, we will not take any more applications. For the Girls (1-8th grade) we will only take 1 team. We can take up to 20 on a roster, so if we do have multiples at a weight, we can take up to four extras on a team. Extras will be decided by coaches.

For the HS Boys and Girls we are only allowed one team. We will not take any more applications if it shows we already have two in a weight class. The applications states what will be used as criteria for the HS divisions. In unique situations, a wrestle off could occur; which would be determined by coaches.

Here is what we currently HAVE per team:
