Star Valley remains number one in Class 3A. Douglas is ranked second, followed by Powell. Worland, Torrington and Lander follow the Panthers in the standings.
While Powell’s position as a team hasn’t changed, the latest batch of rankings showed a significant amount of juggling among the individuals ranked at various weight classes. The Panthers’ lineup now features a pair of No. 1 ranked individuals as freshman Chance Karst ascended to the top of the 113-pound rankings while senior Tyler Patterson did the same at 170 pounds.
Karst had started the season ranked seventh at 106 pounds. Patterson’s name appeared in the No. 2 slot on the preseason chart at 170 pounds.
The new rankings also showcase a rarity — the Panthers are currently credited with having three of the top five 126-pound wrestlers in Wyoming 3A. That logjam sees Colbee Craig third, Dylan Rood fourth and Colton Parham fifth overall.
